Snowflake Challenge - Day 5

[accioslash]

In your own space, talk about a creator. Show us why you think they are amazing.Giving this one a pass. I honestly don't even know where to begin. I have met so many amazing people, read and viewed so many brilliant fanworks in literally dozens of fandoms that I have no way to even narrow down the field. There are people who remember birthdays

I feel rather like this too. I've been thinking about this all day and my list keeps getting longer. And considering I have a fairly limited fandom circle... at the same time, one does want to acknowledge people. *procrastinates about deciding anything*

[accioslash]

Heh. Your comment inspired quite a bit of navel-gazing for me. ;D My original reply to this was two comments of tl;rd long, so I'll leave it at that first bit. *g*

But, yes, I agree it is important to acknowledge people for the many things they do.

I actually specifically thought about you when I was angsting about what to pick for this one. I thought to myself, "Accioslash would have a horror of a time with this, she knows so many people!"

=D Hopefully day six's challenge will be easier!

[accioslash]

It feels like a cop-out not to pick one person in particular, but there are just too many wonderful people for me to pick just one. Or even a handful, really.

[crystalusagi]

yeah, it's difficult. I was only able to pick the fan artist I chose because I regularly look at their stuff, and I usually don't go seeking fan art. I have favorites in HP fandom, but they're people everyone already know about, so..

[accioslash]

Oh, noes! You guys are making me want to post tl;dr thoughts! ;D I will limit myself to sharing the belief that a whole lot of folks feel unappreciated because everyone assumes everyone knows them, so no one ever mentions them.

I like the way you think. When I first saw this question, my mind parsed "creator" as showrunner or author, like JKR or Vince Gilligan or someone like that. It never occurred to me to apply it to fellow fen.

[accioslash]

Oh, it's interesting how our minds work. I never even considered a showrunner or JKR here.

This one wa actually easy for me. I chose three of my favorite bands, three artists (2 professional 1 fannish) and then a handful of writers. 1 Author (professional) and 1 highlighted new writer and then named several that I enjoyed reading throughout the years. I in no way got them all... but they used the word creator... ad that can mean anything. An inventor, a designer, a magaka, painter, etcetera. Though, I recognize that it is difficult for most.

Yes, I got creative with this one. XD

[accioslash]

Actually, seeing such a wide interpretation made this one seem almost doable for me. ;D But in the end, I couldn't do it.
