Wednesday, 4 January 2023 12:30 amDay #2: In your own space, write a promo, manifesto or primer for your fave character, ship or fandom.
I don't think I gravitate towards promos, manifestos, or primers for the most part. I'm either interacting with a large enough fandom that's been well established for years (like Supernatural or HP), or I'm kinda late to any relatively smaller ones (like What We Do In The Shadows). The only time I actually got a primer together before season one ended was last January when I thought I should explain Ordinary Joe a bit for any potential AO3 Tag Wranglers - Fandom Primer: Ordinary Joe.
The primer was intended for anyone wanting to start out without getting the entire show explained/spoilered, but I also wanted to try to make the different timelines clear. Some later season characters, ships, and more infidelity didn't make it into the tagging. Last summer, there also was an unsurprising announcement that the show was not going to be renewed for a second season. I remember while looking for different places where people were gathering to talk about the show that I ran into someone already predicting that it wouldn't be renewed.
