Fandom Snowflake Challenge #2

Challenge #2
In your own space, set some goals for the coming year. They can be fannish or not, public or private.

I have a lot of RL goals this year, which mainly have to do with progressing through my doctoral program. So I do also have a fannish goal: which is simply to stay active in fandom. I've been a lurker for years (hence the username) and am really enjoying finally being active and writing fic.

The goal of staying active in fandom also means sometimes moderating or limiting my participation so that I don't burn myself out on it and I can stay active. I want it to remain something enjoyable, not something that derails my attention from real-life commitments or something that brings me stress and exhaustion.

That's such an important thing, and it's great you understand that.

Good luck with all of your goals, both fannish and personal.

allbingo hosts a different fest each month, and it's a low-pressure, high inspiration community. All formats and fandoms are welcome, and we get a pretty eclectic mix. You can make cards as small as 2x2 if you wish to write, and there's a Diamonds & Dynamite achievement for all small fills. Or you can just read whatever snags your attention that other people have posted. Usually the end of the month has a flurry of people posting claims.
