communal_creators is a comm for creative people of ALL stripes to come, encourage one another, and be encouraged.

The comm runs a mini-round in March and a larger 30 day one in September/October (feel free to browse our last rounds). There is an associated low-key Discord and an optional collection hosted on SquidgeWorld.

We will be hosting our second full round, from September 15th to October 14th, with provisions made to accommodate holidays in that period. Our sign ups are open up to the 15th.

What kind of activity counts? Archiving creative endeavors on other platforms, podfic, vidding, fiber crafts, art, writing fic or meta... if you count it as creative effort, we will too.

Hello!

reference_library is a project aimed at collecting useful links, resources, and materials to help one another out. Members are encouraged to drop links of useful content on the main topic pages, to be added to the lists as the mod (me) can do so. (Often once a week, when new material is available.)

Our sticky page has the topics, and each topic page is linked there. As of today (YAY!) the topics are broken out into sub-categories as well to make them easier to search through.

Please come join, and bring your favorite links to help other people!

We will be hosting a mini-round in March, from the first to the fourteenth, that will just be for tracking time averaged over the period.

reference_library is a crowd-sourced collection of helpful, useful, or informative links on several subjects. This grew out of a project originated on my personal Discord, and I realized we had collected a lot of knowledge.

This sticky post covers the ground rules and links to each of the categories I currently have mapped out.

Feel free to browse, and share your helpful links where others can access them!

Sometimes NaNoWriMo is an inconvenient time for fandom and original creators alike.

communal_creators is going to be running a 30-day event to encourage that kind of creativity, in multiple formats this fall.

Come see Communal Creators, a place to band together to help each other start, work on, or finish a project in September and October. Why those months? Because while National Novel Writing Month in November made sense, once upon a time, it is a very inconvenient time to many people. Backing the timeline out to after school starts but before the push of the holidays for many was my intention.

As I did realize the dates chosen overlapped High Holidays, we have added a provision to accommodate those affected in our official creation period!

Currently hosting a social post! Come giveus a look, and see if you want to join in the fun!

Sometimes NaNoWriMo is an inconvenient time for fandom and original creators alike.

communal_creators is going to be running a 30-day event to encourage that kind of creativity, in multiple formats this fall. Dates chosen are for after public school should be back in swing for many countries, but before the rash of late fall-early winter holidays worldwide.

We will have sign-ups that allow for "time spent creating" or "actual creations made". Or you can be adventurous and sign up for both.

Please come have a look, and if the idea sparks something, join us to get further announcements, including a plan to have a crowd-sourced resource posting before the event itself.

Recently a new community called

allbingo opened. It encourages people to make and share stuff through creative bingo. Previous bingo communities have focused on a single fest. This one is open to players from any fest or none. Here you can play a card from a defunct or closed fest, link a bingo from a currently active fest, generate a custom-made card to play, talk about your bingo activities, and much more.

allbingo is open to all fandoms and to original work. Fills may be made with fiction, nonfiction, poetry, artwork, crafts, music, or pretty much anything else people can make. You can discuss creative bingo as a game, your related hobbies, socialize with other players of creative bingo, and so forth.

To get started, read the rules for

allbingo. Browse the posting template and a guide to bingo, extra, and achievement options. Get a bingo card to play. Explore what to do with a bingo card and what you can do in this community. You can leave suggestions if you wish. New members are invited to post an introduction, but it's not required.

Currently we have 3 affiliated communities, links to many other bingo fests, 31 subscribers, and 66 interests. Members are posting introductions and bingo claims. Several folks have tried out the tools for making customized bingo cards. Come make some new friends who are into bingo!

Please share this announcement with anyone you think might be interested. The wider the range of bingo topics and activities featured, the more fun

allbingo will be.

Current Mood: busy

July Mini Prompts | Contact a Mod

The point of

poet_inspired is to celebrate creative contributions other than fiction writing. Through July, small prompts from the featured poet Yehuda Amichai will be posted to serve as inspiration for vids, fanmixes, podfic, fanart, icons, wallpapers, graphics, knitting patterns, photo collages, macaroni castles, picspams, meta, and more! If it's not fiction writing, we would love to see it featured on the comm.

Fandom and original contributions are equally welcome.

Hello! I have recently created a new comm for people who are interested in bartering/trading homemade and handmade items with others. This is not a community for buying and selling, but for bartering/trading only.

bartering

Community rules are available on the comm profile.

Please introduce yourself when you sign up and let people know what you're offering/looking for.

This is a very small comm right now, and will only be successful if lots of people join and get involved. So if you're interested in (legal!) gray-market type dealings, freecycling, bartering, trading, art, baking, and all those other sorts of things, please join us!
