Dreamwidth Community Promotion

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.

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.

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.

As all of my comms are about to come off hiatus, or already are, it might be a good time to promote them.

musing_way: A laid back, easy comm to let your muses roam free. We do have claims, but the activity check is one prompt reply a month, with one warning before actual removal. Original characters, fanfiction muses, and OCs in fandom verses are all welcome. So is breaking the fourth wall. RP is welcome and encouraged, both as posts of their own, and in the threads. "Dressing Room style"

muse_prompts: A community with no claims, no checks, just three sets of three prompts four times a month. If you link us to your work, it makes the mod happy. If not, the mod never knows. Original or fannish welcome.

parlour_treats: Twice a month the mod will offer prompts here for exploring your muses. Prompts 'borrowed' from elsewhere are also welcome to be explored. Acts as a no-claims, quiet place to work on character voices. Original and fannish muses welcome.

parthenon: Intended to be a claims table comm, themed by the Classical Greek muses. Each table has ten prompts, but the requirements vary. Open to fiction or art, though the tables may need a little tweaking for the artist in you. No pressure to complete your table. Original or fannish.

the_fic_trader: Home to my challenges, including the Transformers Gift Exchange in June and Gen in January (ongoing now for the third year!). Other challenges welcome, if you need a pplace to host one!
