Blogocentric Formulations

Tenth Day of Christmas

Twelve Days of Christmas


                   

PROMPT: As a tribute to the austerity of the number ten, fan ten different authors or items that you haven't already. (Refresher: to "like" an item or author, click the "+" at the top right between the email and print icons. The "+" will turn into a finger with a string on it to indicate you've made it a favorite... and clicking it again will turn the icon into a horn which indicates you're a fan. You can check to see which items you've already fanned - and who is a fan of you! - by clicking on the Fans tab in your portfolio.)

I'm going to break my own rules a bit with this blog entry... even though I've not repeated a single person yet in any of these 12 Days of Christmas activities, I'm going to ignore that rule today. And it's not going to be a detailed blog post with reasons why I chose each person today because the reason why I chose each of these people is the same. These are WdC members that I've worked with, chatted with, competed against, or otherwise interacted with on Writing.Com for a decent period of time, and whose contributions to the site I greatly value. I decided to fan the following ten people not because I'm just discovering them now or because they did anything specific recently... I'm fanning them now because I should have done it a very long time ago and I just now realized that I didn't.

I'm pretty bad with the favorites and fanning thing on this site. I have tons of old contests and activities still bookmarked, even ones that haven't been updated for years or members who haven't logged in since 2013... and yet I always seem to forget to make new favorites when something comes along, unless it's an activity where I need to be able to see it pop up in my favorites (like an auction or forum). For 2015, I'm going to try to be better about cleaning out the old stuff (A Midsummer Night's Scream and Erotic Tales of Pleasure & Pain haven't had a round since 2012... I think it's safe to say they're not coming back anytime soon!), and adding the new activities and individuals that I'd like to get to know better in the coming year. So I'm starting with the following:
