Snowflake Challenge #11

In your own space, create a fanwork. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

Fanwork means anything that you, a fan, creates. If you say it’s a fanwork, then it is! But if you want some suggestions, why not see if one of your fav fanworks creators has a transformative works statement? Many people (me included) have them on their profiles, either here on Dreamwidth or on AO3. Then go crazy! Make art, make fic, make a podfic, make a vid, make a cross-stitch pattern. Crochet, knit. Bake a cake! An interpretive dance of how it makes you feel! Anything!

I've been making a bunch of cold reads the last several days, as a response to my own challenge #8 wish and for birthdays and whatnot, but yesterday I made a podfic of silveradept's And the Cartomancy Caper for their challenge #8 wish. The Librarians/Warehouse 13 crossover, gen, podfic is 22:44.

Thank you for the recommendation, I'll check them out.

Teachers and people reading stories out old at school always annoyed me if they were too slow. Maybe it's because I'm a fast reader myself.

Yup, exactly! If they are not reading fast enough to take up my entire attention span (with the exception of having cleaning/crafting/driving to do, which is basically muscle memory at this point) then my mind wanders and all of a sudden I've missed what they've said because they can't keep me with them. I'm sure there are people who appreciate that, but it's not me.

A fix for this can be listening at 1.5x or 2x speed; I've started to watch webinars that way because I can get through the content twice as fast without any loss of information.
