fandom snowflake challenge #13

(This is my first time doing a snowflake challenge - figured I'd just jump in!)

Challenge #13: In your own space, tell us about 3 fandom resources you use or enjoy. (One or two is fine, especially if you're in a smaller fandom!) Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

1. Cold Boys Research Central by areyougonnabe is such a wonderful example of collaborative fandom research. The Terror fandom is full of academic folks whose research focuses on the Franklin expedition or non-academic folks who just want to learn more about the historical figures the show/book is based around. This page compiles a bunch of those resources into one place. It just makes me happy as someone who's gone down the research rabbit hole multiple times for my fics and as a grad student specializing in digital history.

2. Podfichat is a huge Discord server of podficcers. I'm still pretty new to podficcing and the folks in this server have helped me out so much. Its also just a very chill and supportive community.

3. I struggled coming up with a third resource, but my friends are honestly the best ones I have. I only have a handful of fandom friends, but I've made such long-lasting connections with them and have even had the privilege of meeting a few in person. They're so supportive of my interests, have cheered me on through so many projects, and given me criticism/reality checks when I need them. They're just the best. <3
