Follow Friday 2-4-22

[ysabetwordsmith]

Got any Follow Friday-related posts to share this week? Comment here with the link(s).

Here's the plan: every Friday, let's recommend some people and/or communities to follow on Dreamwidth. That's it. No complicated rules, no "pass this on to 7.328 friends or your cat will die". Just introduce us to some new things to read.

Comments

Done!

I made an introductory post about Follow Friday, and recommended 3 communities on disability and accessibility.

It's nice to see a post on this comm, thank you ysabetwordsmith! Today I'd like to tell people that my friend silviarambles recently made the move to DW and would love to broaden her circle. You can read her intro post on addme and see if she sounds like your type of DW person.

You're welcome!

I have commented on the post; we might be a match.

Also, I copied your idea to the Follow Friday introduction post that I made. If more people did what you just did, I think we'd have a much lower attrition rate.

oursin posted: Would it necessarily be about the moolah? It's a post about Wordle's crestor's decision to sell the game to the NYT. Interesting comments too.

For people who need encouragement to write more (daily or not, this sounds very low pressure)

I'm going to be hosting Write Every Day this next month. This daily check in has helped me tremendously with my own writing over the past one or two years, so I figured it was time to pay back. Expect to see daily posts all February long, and please feel free to join in at any time!

What Is Write Every Day? A roving writing support community, with a bias toward encouraging a daily writing habit. It's a decentralized affair, without moderators or a fixed home; monthly hosting duties are passed around among members of the community.

If you're interested in the Harry Potter (fanworks) fandom, potterfests is a fabulous place to find out about (almost) all the activies; the mod is a wonder.

If you're interested in podfics, the podfic_calendar is a great place to see activities.

I made a Dreamwidth Community Recs post which vriddy suggested I post here, so I am now doing so! Feel free to link my post elsewhere, it's public for that reason.
