thelittlebangHere we are, officially in our second week of the initial creation phase. Here's hoping everyone's busy creating, or plotting, or outlining, or whatever else it is that you do in the early stages of creating!
So to start things off, we would love it if everyone could introduce themselves, and pimp out their fandom, talk about their characters, etc. We will be having an "official" pimp your fandom post next week, so don't panic if you don't have any info to pimp your fandom here. This is primarily to a little "meet & greet" so we can all find out what everyone else is doing. And if you get excited by a project, let the person know!
Back in 2009,havocthecat made a sample form you can use, if you're more comfortable with structure. Or you could do a more freeform comment. Or you could introduce yourself over in bangalittle or your personal journal, and drop a link in the comments here for us. Whatever makes you the most comfortable!
I'm going to post mine in the comments here, so you can see an example of one way it can be done. Again, the stuff in the text box is just a guideline. Feel free to take it, leave it, alter it. :)
And speaking ofbangalittle, feel free to pop on over and post about your project. Squee, bitch, moan, freak out, plead with the muse(s), whatever. Just remember that when you're posting there, we ask that you follow these three simple rules [that I'll add in an intro post over there, too].

- don't go about spoiling people for shows/canons whose fandoms are currently operating under spoiler warnings. it's just not nice.
- don't post fic/links to fic that are unrelated to your tlb project. there are many other places you can do that.

Date: 2011-06-19 06:36 pm (UTC)Fandom: Power Rangers - for the bang though, the specific seasons are Ninja Storm and Mystic Force.
Pairing: Tori Hanson (Ninja Storm Blue Ranger)/Vida Rocca (Mystic Force Pink Ranger)
Why did you choose this pairing?: Well, of the 'met in canon' pairings I have, I'm either already working on the big story I want to tell about them or there's no ideas I could think of that I could make last for 15k. But I do like the idea of Vida as a lesbian, and I had an old m/m slash idea with Vida winding up in Tori's area as part of the subplot, so I shifted the focus of it over to Vida and Tori instead of the boys. The best part is that the plot is resolving a lot better in my head now.
Other fandoms: Oh man, I'm a total fandom butterfly. The big ones right now other than Power Rangers are: Leverage, Claymore, Community, Nikita, Legend of the Seeker, Gokaiger, and I think that's it.
Anything else you want to tell us about your fandom?: Other than it's beyond awesome? It's got kick ass women, giant robots, super powers and spandex. :D
Any fun links about your fandom or pairing to share?: Well, since I just came up with the pairing on the fly, I think I'm the only one who's really thought of it. I think I'm going to work on some fandom primers for it, especially now that it's all available on Netflix.
