Because why should LJ get to have all the fun? ;) Consider this a companion piece to the LJ version, if you will; it's certainly not meant to replace the LJ version, just ... offering those of us who for whatever reason don't feel comfortable playing in LJ's sandbox anymore another, more us-friendly version. Remember: this meme is all about having fun.
Plenty of writers talk about "showing their id", but our id is a vital and unavoidable part of the fic-writing experience - it shows itself in everything we write, whether we know it or not! The id is an awesome thing. Plenty of our favorite fics would never have existed without it. But there's always that pesky question a writer gets to asking (or is that just me?): am I getting my ideas across clearly? How much of my id is showing up when I mean it to, and am I showing off parts of my id I didn't realize I had? It's important to know these things! Conscious id-identification can only improve one's ability to evoke what makes that particular idea so enjoyable for us!
So, we come before you, oh sages of the internet, with a question: what parts of our id do you see? We really want to know! (Don't be scared. We'll only bite you if you want it!)
The Rules:
1. Comment as yourself, with your name/DW-handle/OpenID in the title of the comment (and any extra information you might want to supply in the comment box if you feel like doing so)
2. Link others to your link
3. Comment (anonymously, if you feel the need) on others' ids, as revealed in your fic
4. Play nice!
My thread is here! Come play!
