Challenge #1 - The Icebreaker Challenge: Introduce yourself. Tell us why you're doing the challenge, and what you hope to gain from it.

Happy New Year, all! I’m [personal profile] nyctanthes and I’ve posted on DW...a dozen times in the last two years? Eek. Plenty of reasons why, including being extraordinarily busy and becoming increasingly disengaged from fandom. How to use this blog when I didn’t have media I was excited about, when I’d stopped writing fanfic to concentrate on original work? I couldn’t figure it out, but perhaps this year I will. I’ve been toying with writing essayistic pieces and/or reviews both long and short. Perhaps this is a place where I can experiment with that. Perhaps I'll take up drabble writing and post it here. I'd love to write flash length or micro/drabble length fic - to find that easy, fun creativity again.

In short, I’m joining the [community profile] snowflake_challenge to see if I can revive this blog. But I’m also not putting any pressure on myself, as my original fiction writing comes first, and how many times have I swore that I'm going to be on DW more consistently? Too many...

(ETA: I've updated my sticky. It's HERE.)




Snowflake Challenge: A mug of coffee or hot chocolate with a snowflake shaped gingerbread cookie perched on the rim sits nestled amidst a softly bunched blanket. A few dried orange slices sit next to it.
