Fandom snowflake challenge - Day 1 - self-reccing!

Fanworks I am proud of creating:

  • EVP: Supernatural Fic Podcast
    I put this together back in 2006, organising and editing together an issue every fortnight for a handful of months. In hindsight, whoa. (I was writing a thesis, running a wiki, vidding and writing at the same time.) That was fun. Wish I had the energy to do something like that again!

  • SupernaturalWiki
    While [personal profile] missyjack basically runs this now, I still host it and am so proud of how far it's come since I set it up. The wiki gets over 300K visitors per month, at about a 50/50 split of new and regular visitors, and has over 2000 articles. And no wank! It's a pretty damn awesome community and site.

  • Firefly fic: Stroke of Luck
    I still love this epic Jayne/Simon AU I wrote. In hindsight, I cringe a bit that I didn't even have it beta read, but I still have a great fondness for and proudness of it.

  • Merlin fic: Along a Wandering Wind
    The longest thing I've every written, and I think I worked harder on this fic than any other I've ever written. At this point in time, it's definitely my favourite of all my fanworks.

  • Torchwood fic: We Happy Few
    The second-longest thing I've written, that also had a lot of hard work go into it. It was so satisfying to write this - the culmination of a million shit-talking story-telling conversations had with friends about the adorable ridiculousness of team Torchwood.

  • Torchwood/pulp novel mashup fanart
    I love making fanart, I don't do enough of it. These still make me so happy to look at, and make me pine for doing more art like this.

3.9 million visitors to the wiki in 2011. Not many fanworks get that! :D

Hi - we met at a Perth slashcon a few years ago when I gave you and Cathy a lift to Fairbridge.

I'm a late convert to Supernatural and have been loving the Wiki. What an amazing project!

I've found the site performance pretty bad lately. I understand there have been Dreamhost issues, but please let me / the masses out there know if there's anything we can do to help with getting things back up and running better. It's sad to have such a great site not be accessible so much of the time.

Congratulations on setting up such an enormous and long-lived site!

Kris

Also, I meant to say, it's especially impressive that you continue to put time into the Wiki when you're no longer involved with the fandom! I'd say that's pretty rare.
