2021 Yuletide Promo Post
Welcome to the Fandom Promo post, everyone!
Here's where you get those eyes on your fandoms for sign ups!
Share what makes your Yuletide fandoms the shiniest and why you love them. A big part of Yuletide is how small our fandoms can be, and this is a good way to make sure other people know what gems there are out there!
Suggested form to use:
<b>FANDOM NAME</b>:
<b>WHAT MAKES IT GREAT</b>:
<b>WHERE CAN I FIND IT (optional)</b>:
(Bonus optional: What are you thinking of requesting for this?)
EDIT:
Useful tips (Not required, but helps people if they want to engage with your fandom!):
- Mention what form of media the canon is. Is it a comic miniseries? Is it a twenty season tv show? Is it a book? Is it a twitter feed?
- Is it standalone or part of a series?
- It's best to make each fandom its own entry with its own title in the subject line! That makes it easier for people to find/see what you're promoting! Don't worry about 'spam', that is the entire point of this entry and you're using it exactly as intended.
For reference, last year's promo post!
Hilda the Plus-Sized Pin-Up - Duane Bryers (Illustration Series)
WHAT MAKES IT GREAT: Pin up, red head, plus sized lady, great art, so much potential for stories... what's not to love? Hilda's lust for life and her unashamed nature in seeking out even the smallest of adventures with exuberance is so completely evident in each piece and I adore everything about them! It's so clear that Bryers loved Hilda (and whoever the real life inspiration for her was). The happiness and joy contained in each of the works in this series is infectious and they always make me smile. The potential for great stories is infinite too! You could tell a story inspired by a single piece or string a bunch of illustrations together for something completely different!
WHERE CAN I FIND IT?(optional): Some examples
You can find a larger collection here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.653547017991559&type=1&l=5126ca78c8
