frayadjacentI like to change up my DW theme every so often, and on Monday I spent a couple of hours pouring through new ones before finally settling on the first theme I had when I signed up (but with new fonts and colors).
I also added some new icons so I'm back to 100! Now I just need to remember to renew my paid account in a few weeks so I don't lose 'em. (Note -- this is *not* a passive aggressive ask for paid time. I can afford it, so if you want to gift that to someone please give it to someone else!) Occasionally I consider just buying 75 icon spaces and giving up the paid account, since I mostly keep it for the extra icons, but, well, I like DW and want to support it.
I started the month intending to post daily. I did close to that for the first half, but the second half of September was more like 3-4 posts per week, which I feel fine with. I hope to keep up about that much.
In that vein, I'm thinking about starting (or finding) some sort of meme where I post about my favorite characters. Specifically women, but that's already covered under "favorite" (except maybe Gunn, Felix, and Giles, but I'd still need to get past my top ~10 to reach them probably). It started because I've been writing a Sarah Manning Is Awesome post in my head for the last week or so, and I'm basically always writing a Buffy Summers Is Awesome post in my head, so I'm thinking a meme will get them going. So, expect posts about them in the coming weeks. :D :D

on 3/10/14 05:00 am (UTC)ooh, fandom stocking is not a bad idea! I've never done it before. Maybe I will also ask for the Lao Ma/M'Lila fic of my heart. Also it will help it feel like Christmastime this summer. :D
Thanks for all the pretty icons! So much to choose from now; there's a lot of great Sleepy Hollow stuff. I really like the ones that combine Abbie and Ichabod -- that's a very cool visual concept -- but I wish that Abbie's face was the more prominent one and not Ichabod's. :p
Heh, I discovered Buffy in my late 20's, but I'd seen very little television at that point so it still feels like my turning point show, the thing that got me fannish and whatnot. And since it was only a few years ago, as opposed to 10-15, I'm still hanging on when most of the LJ/DW crowd has moved on. At least there is old meta to read and old and new vids to watch/make.
