The Fandom Snowflake Challenge Day 4

In your own space, create a list of at least three fannish things you'd love to receive, something you've wanted but were afraid to ask for - a fannish wish-list of sorts. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your wish-list if you feel comfortable doing so. Maybe someone will grant a wish. Check out other people's posts. Maybe you will grant a wish. If any wishes are granted, we'd love it if you link them to this post.

Oh boy. I love this one! I love wandering around and giving gifts, as well as getting awesome things.

Well, my first wish is for folks to stuff [community profile] fandom_stockings. I've written a few treats and I'll try for a few more over the next few days, and I would just like everyone's stockings stuffed full by the time they go live (around the evening of Sunday, January 5th). You can sign up here to help fill stockings that are in need of a little love or just check the tags for particular fandoms that you're feeling right now. If you want to look for a particular person's stocking, you can use the search function. One of my favorite things about fandom is the way we all give to each other all the time, we create things that make other people happy for no other reason than to make them happy. How great is that?

Secondly, I'd love to have people grant things on the wishlists of the Fandom Snowlake Challenge Day 4. Ditto all the reasons above. Fandom is my happy place, most of all when people share the love.

For myself, I'd really, really love advice on where to go as a 100% complete newbie vidder. I've got vid ideas bursting out my ears, and I want to get my feet wet. If you know of a newbie vidder comm or a resources post or just... anything that will help someone who has never touched vidding anything before, that would be super great.

I browsed the fandom tags for fandom_stocking, but at least in the fandoms I felt like I could write, all the requests were just lists of fandoms and maybe pairings, which is just not enough inspiration for me, especially writing something for someone (and a stranger at that). I like the idea of the fest, but I wish people would write a bit more in their request posts. :-/
