Prompt 5: Fulfill A Wishlist Item for Someone Else

As the [community profile] sunshine_challenge continues, we invite everyone to embark on something of a fannish scavenger hunt! More details below the cut. Remember that there is no official deadline, so feel free to join in at any time or go back and do any prompts you've missed!



Now that we’re well into this challenge, we hope that most of you have been able to reach out to new folks and begin to cultivate new fandom relationships. We’d like to see this go a even a step further!

This challenge is to explore other journals to find wish list items that you can fulfill for someone else. Lots of people have Dear Creator Letters, Fandom Wish List posts from other challenges, and other such posts that readily list their fandom wishes (and if you’d like take this opportunity to create one for yourself now, please do!).

Maybe your new friend has a New Year’s goal post with some fannish wishes tucked therein. Maybe someone would love to find new readers for their fic, some fanart to accompany that WIP they’ve been working on, new icons, paid time for their journal or community page … the ideas are endless. You can choose to sign your name to the granted wish or you can gift someone their wish list item anonymously. What’s important is knowing that you yourself did something to make someone’s day a little bit brighter.

I like to think of it as a bit of a fannish scavenger hunt. Look at other people's profiles and find interests that you share. Check back to this post later and see if any interesting wishes were granted!



If you create any fanworks, feel free to add them to our AO3 Collection.

Once you’ve finished fulfilling someone’s wish, leave a comment to this post saying you’ve done it! Include a link to your pages if you feel comfortable doing so. Let everyone know whether you are "Ready for visitors!" or "Lurking for fandom fun".

Most importantly, please check through the comments and go visit new journals, comment on their shiny posts, and maybe make a new friend or two. We encourage everyone to aim to comment on two new journals if they are able (of course, you are welcome to do more!). ♥

I absolutely feel you on wishes being hard--I always have more trouble filling this prompt than I expect. Glad you joined us, though!
