On the Joys of Being Panfannish
Wow. My auction for livelongnmarry has racked up $75 in donation bids over four days. That's three different stories being auctioned off seperately, but still, that's crazy.
But I have to say it's really satisfying that my short-attention-span pan-fannishness is actually good for something. Since I'm not heavily invested in any one fandom, I never feel like I'm really part of any particular community, and fandom interaction doesn't come so easy for me. However, I do have the convenient ability to write decent fic for almost anything I have a passing familiarity with, and I have a pretty short squick list. Which means it is a lot easier attracting potential bidders, even with my wacky, obscure tastes and complete lack of fandom visibility.
I'm so glad I'm doing this. Three 5,000-word fics over two months is only about 250 words a day. And multiple stories keeps the high bids low and affordable, but sure adds up nicely. The auction ends on the 15th, and once again, my offer post is HERE.
