Re: Prompt Freeze

I liked how people would post similar prompts all in one place. I know a lot of people were probably really busy with exams and things, but it'll make it easier for people to go back and quickly parse through prompts.

Also, I think a fair amount of prompts were filled because of it too. Yay!

I know, it's amazing.

(though it's a little lost on me because i don't like aus generally. I wish they'd write some canon-universe stuff too, lol)

Why did you write an AU?

(Anonymous) 2015-06-23 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Are you burning with a need to tell someone why you wrote a particular AU? Tell us why in this thread! It can be Daredevil related or not.

Right? I guess voodoo is an appropriate name. xD They're amazing.

I thought it was great. It was cool having people promote older prompts and we got some awesome fills.

I thought it was great! Comm activity didn't seem to slow down all that much and there were some great fills that came out of it. I really enjoyed it

See the school timeline is exactly why I thought he was younger. 4 years undergrad, 3 years law school, and apparently this is different but commonly people have internships while in law school, then get a real job right after. (My family is almost entirely lawyers.)

So standard would be undergrad 18-21, law school 22-24. For him to be 30+, he would have had to take time in there somewhere to do something else.

It's also possible after being blinded he got behind in school a year or so, or that he took five years for undergrad, but we still have like six years to account for. Gap years aren't a Thing in the US, but it's common for people to work a couple years before going to law school.

Remix Madness is here!

You guys, there's a tragedy happening at Remix Madness right now! Out of fifty sign-ups, I am the only person with Daredevil fic. I am desperately hoping to write some more DD stories for this challenge, and I know lots of y'all have written some amazing stories for the kink meme, so go sign up!

http://archiveofourown.org/collections/remixmadness2015/profile <--- rules and sign up

If you're not familiar with the concept, remixing gives you the opportunity to play with someone else's work: you could change the POV, add zombies, tell it backwards, whatever floats your boat. At the same time, you get a chance to see what someone else would do to your stories. Since the madness round is basically a treat round, signing up just means you're throwing your stories into the pot to be remixed - you don't have to commit to remixing anyone else's stuff if you don't want to. It's tons of fun, and I hope some of you will come play!

Formatting posts

New to dreamwidth, so sorry if there's a post on this. How do you format posts, like make things italic and bold and stuff like that?

Re: Formatting posts

(Anonymous) 2015-06-24 04:47 pm (UTC)(link)
= italics = bold = strikethrough It's pretty much just using basic html anon.

Re: Formatting posts

(Anonymous) 2015-06-24 04:48 pm (UTC)(link)
And of course Dreamwith messed up the post.

Here, take out the spaces

< /s> = strikethrough
< b>< /b> = bold
< i>< /i> = italics

Ohh I've never tried this before hmm...what does it mean by 'safe story'?

Re: Remix Madness is here!

(Anonymous) 2015-06-24 05:26 pm (UTC)(link)
If you want, you can designate one of your stories as off-limits for remixing. It's totally optional. I usually use mine to "protect" the one OC I really care about.

Anon Concrit Thread?

(Anonymous) 2015-06-24 05:31 pm (UTC)(link)
As an author, I know I would like feedback on my fics, but I know a lot of people are afraid to comment publicly, so who would like an anonymous feedback thread for giving feedback on fic?

Or, we could even do a separate post or something, where the authors post their fic link and people comment giving feedback. Anyone interested?

Daredevil #16

(Anonymous) 2015-06-24 05:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I know there's at least one other person up to date on the Waid/Samnee run judging by the panicked desire for fluff, but has anyone else managed to read #16? If so, how are you finding your emotional health?

Re: Remix Madness is here!

(Anonymous) 2015-06-24 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah right :) I wasn't sure whether it was the story that you didn't want remixed, or the story that it was 100% safe to remix haha, thanks!

Re: Daredevil #16 spoiler alert

That last panel, yeesh.

Poor Kirsten. Poor Foggy.
