March Meta Matters Challenge, First Writing Prompt!

[yourlibrarian]

Hello everyone! It's check-in time again to see how we're all getting along with our meta importing.

Comment below with any of the following:

1) Are you having internal debates about what content you're considering moving versus not copying over?
2) Are you having any problems moving your meta?

It's also time for your first writing prompt! Can you write some new meta based on old meta you've come across? This could be:

* an update to what you wrote before
* current you is arguing with former you about your ideas
* taking the same idea and applying it to a different fandom
* expressing some of the same ideas in a different format

Whatever approach you take, see if an older work you've been rehousing can be a jumping off point for a new work.

Writing new meta this month is optional. If you do write something though, share a link to it in a future check-in post!

Re: 1, if you have concerns there's also always the option of not allowing anonymous comments, turning on comment moderation, or even locking the posts to logged-in users which can reduce the likelihood of click-by trolling a great deal.

And yes, it sounds like you are! A great deal of my meta was written in real time in response to a series as it took place. So the posts are very much a time capsule. I've noted the original posting dates in all of those in the author's notes up front. I did once have someone who didn't notice that about them but I think generally people have.
