Snowflake Challenge #5 (Three useful fannish things)
[Community Post]
📋 In your own space, tell us about 3 creative/fannish resources, spaces, or communities you use or enjoy. (One or two is fine, especially if you're in a smaller fandom or like many people at the moment, fannishly adrift right now.)
(I skipped the third and fourth challenge because I didn't feel like posting a rant and I couldn't think of anything to add to Guardian canon in the manner suggested in the prompt. So here we are!)
1) I'm pretty much exclusively writing on my phone these days, and somehow I never fully got into using Google Docs for drafting and futzing around. Once I outgrew the iOS Notes app, I tried out Craft and I love it! (This is not sponsored. I do pay for the pro version.) It has some bells and whistles I don't need, but also some bells and whistles I've come to enjoy, like rich links (pasting in a Twitter URL and getting a formatted little card with preview image) and an easy-to-use folder structure with nested documents. I use it for fic writing (and collecting fic-related research), some random lists and notes, and my shopping list.
2) Guardian Bingo is "a very low-stakes, low-pressure fest meant to be fun and inspire more Guardian fan creations" and is now continuing through 2023 after a very successful 2022! (People loved it. :-D) There's a wide variety of prompts which you're encouraged to interpret however you want, there's no minimum requirements for fills, there's a fun bonus prompt every month, and the badges you get for a line or a blackout (seen here in my Bingo post) are beautiful.
3) I haven't been consulting it much recently, but I lived in the Bai Yu & Zhu Yilong Primer by![[tumblr.com profile]](https://www.tumblr.com/favicon.ico)
qikiqtarjuaq when I was all new to Guardian fandom and didn't know where to put all my Weilan and Zhubai feelings. What an incredible collection of information and links! I still link people to it all the time.

Happy to report I haven't unlearned keyboard typing, though. :-D
