Snowflake Challenge #1

[kate]

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

Done and done! This year's challenge includes some prompts to answer if you've never made an intro/sticky post before (or just need some ideas), and includes transformative works statements, which is ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! And I will make the same offer over here that I made over there, which is: if you have a publicly posted blanket permission statement and want to be added to the Blanket Permission List that drives the AO3 widget that a lot of us podficcers use to find blanket permission fics, leave a link and I will add you. :D

I did the challenge here! Is that enough of a blanket permission statement? Do I need to say the words 'blanket permission'? What is the etiquette here...

[kate]

Oooh, thank you! You do not need the words "blanket permission" - any wording at all that you welcome podfic is great! It is helpful, though, if you add the statement to your AO3 profile, so people can check directly from a story they enjoyed (typically we link AO3 profiles that have blanket permission list (and then your username shows up green when people use the widget, which is super handy, believe me!). I'll add you to the list either way, just let me.

Also - congrats on your first year writing, and good job with all the words. Hope it continues into 2023!

Oooh, yes, please add me to the thing. My blanket permission statement is on my AO3 profile: https://archiveofourown.org/users/Clavally/profile

[kate]

Of course, bb! <3 <3 <3

Happy new year!

[kate]

You *are* already on the list! Thank you so much!

Happy new year to you too! :D

Where does the Blanket Permission List live?

[kate]

It is here. Anyone can add to it - just a link to the permission statement and then if there are alternate sites hosting the fic (FFN, DW/LJ, others, I think) and whoever is running it adds to the list attached to the widget... which I will have to figure out how to get again, because I'm back on firefox and have lost all my extensions. :(

[runpunkrun]

Looks like I'm not on there. If you could add me, that'd be great!

Thank you!

[kate]

It's done! And thank you so much for your note to podficcers - that is amazing and really great to hear.

[runpunkrun]

Oh, I'm so glad. I saw that in helens78's statement and was like, "That is SUCH a good idea" and adopted it immediately.

[starandrea]

Thank you for linking to this! ♥ I added myself (with a note to let me know if my statement isn't clear enough to read as blanket permission) :)

[kate]

You're very welcome, and thank you for having a transformative works statement! :D :D :D

[starandrea]

Thank you for spreading the good word! ♥ (Apparently I was already in the FPS database, so maybe I didn't need to add myself to the spreadsheet? I left the entry just in case, and also because it says "thanks" on it, which one can never hear too much!)

[kate]

Ah, yeah, if you're in the database, you're all set - I didn't check there, I just checked the spreadsheet which... is probably not the way to go about that lol. Thanks for that tip! :D

Awesome, ty! You are on the list! :D :D :D

[corvidology]

I think I may be already listed but perhaps under my old user name, Draycevixen?

My blanket permission statement is here:

[kate]

Oh, I think I've seen that before...lemme look. Hm, I don't see Draycevixen on the list, but I've definitely added you under Corvidology, so you're there now! Happy new year! :D
