100fandoms | tea break post 7

.

SORRY that I've been absent but RL has been having its way with me.

I've caught up with the fandom tagging and thought it time to open another Tea Break post.

Post now open for having a cuppa and chatting with your fellow writers about anything even vaguely fandom related.

If you'd like to share you card, talk about how it's going, here's your chance.

It absolutely doesn't have to be

100fandoms serious business.

Feel free to look for writers who share your fandoms, etc.

Hi all! I'm rather curious what other people are using to determine which fandoms they write? I've alternated between looking at my book/dvd shelves with 'hmm what came out in x-year'.

senmut! I'm approaching it from the angle of being able to write for older books (e.g. Biggles), tv shows (e.g. Colditz) and films (e.g. To Be or Not To Be 1942). Write the fic I've always wanted to see sort of thing :D.

As well as more popular media.

I have also looked at my book/dvd shelves and jotting down fandoms to cover.

That's a great way to approach it!

Pretty certain I've got something Doris Day and something Tim Conway to write this week....

Ooo I will keep an eye open for your Doris Day fic! So sad to hear of her passing.

By the way your icon is lovely!

Good luck with choosing! There is such a big selection...

I don't think I've developed a method so much as I see or read something and then think "is there something here I want to write about?"

Organized chaos, is my instinctive choice. :D
