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!

Date: 2020-03-09 02:56 pm (UTC)Oh, I have to completely disagree on this one. I remember that in SPN fandom, for example, there was a community set up exactly to host posts about the technical side of the show, such as lighting or cinematography, set decoration and costuming. I would certainly say that anything that's analytical is a meta piece.
That's why I decided against the con panel transcripts, because while I imagine I included some asides in different parts, they were really just reporting who said what.
And I suspect part of why I hesitated at first regarding the concert review was because I haven't been in a music fandom for some time. But once I started to read through the post I realized it wasn't that different. Although I don't think I posted album reviews at my LJ I definitely wrote them in years past, and have been thinking about posting those as well as I believe I have them saved in a folder somewhere.
And it's funny you should mention themed recs because I just wrote up a new meta post yesterday night which I planned to transfer to AO3 today. I was thinking of using it as the first chapter to a series of vid rec posts which discussed how they serve as commentary on the canon.
