Come and join our shiny new gen fanfiction comm,
![[community profile]](http://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png){kind=small}
gensplosion! We'll accept fanfiction recommendations for any and all fandoms. We're brand new, so we're still polishing things a little, but we'd love for people to come and join us!
seventhbardThis is a bit of an experiment for me! I've never started a comm before, so hopefully it will be a lot of fun.
I like fandom fine, but it seems there's not many active hobbies/general interest comms on DW. With LJ getting so... awful lately, I felt it was important to see if I could either find or encourage some more variety here before that site flipping implodes. XD
Dithered about it for the longest time, wasn't sure if I could keep up regular stuff, couldn't settle on an interest, said "screw it, ALL INTERESTS" andinterested_in_that was born!
C'mon in and make yourself at home. Starting things preeeettty casual, hoping to keep it all in good fun.
Life's interesting! Let's celebrate.

DW Fandom comms
Mar. 14th, 2013 09:40 pmvickyblueeyez There might be another influx thanks to the new LJ release. Anyway I wanted to post that when fandomsecrets moved here, they made a post for LJ users to find fandom comms on here. That post is http://fandomsecrets.dreamwidth.org/6
Introductiona nd questions
Jan. 3rd, 2013 03:15 pmastridetalHi, I'm looking for new friends and am an LJ refugee. In fact the only reason I still go on LJ is that I have a paid account there and can't get one here. Does anyone know why DW doesn't do PayPal?
Anyways, I'm 26 and live in the Netherlands. I love journaling, and have wanted to start writing fiction again a million times (I wrote YA stories as a teen), but never actually got down to it. I don't understand what fandoms are, which is my other question. I mean, is it that you pick a character from an exisitng media source and write based on that, or am I totally mistaken? I don't watch TV so I probably couldn't do fandoms even if I wanted to (which I've wanted just to connect to others somehow). I would like to connect to other people and get back into the habit of writing again. Also, I am a craftster, but since I don't have a paid account I can't upload my craft pictures here. I don't know what else I wanted to say.

Critter Comms?
Jan. 2nd, 2013 12:09 amseventhbardWell I've been on DW for a while actually, under another name with a specific purpose, but then LJ started to do, well whatever it is that's going on with it lately, and so many of my friends moved that I made a new account here to start anew!
I love(d) the great comms in LJ. I am more of an "interests" gal than a "fandoms" sort of person (I like a lot of shows/books/what-have-you but not many of them enough to get into it in the fandom way, just not my thing I guess, I'm a party pooper). I love how-tos, question-answer, and general interest. I love arts and crafts, cooking, DIY... and perhaps above all, pets.
Are there any active pet comms on DW? Dog stories? Pictures of hamsters? My bunny is making a noise like a wounded lemon what do I do? Look I taught Professor Bigglesby how to do the Lindy hop?
Share share!

Dec. 31st, 2012 11:21 pmmarilla_pm67Hello,
This will come a stupid question for some of you, but it's bothering since beginning of the day...
I'm moving all my piccies from photobucket ... and will host them on a personal server and imagebam. Okay that's not the point, the point is, I will update the posts I made in my main journan which was on LJ, and then I want to reimport my entries.
My question is, will the modified entries get imported, or should I delete those entries here on DW and reimport them to be sure to get the new coding for the pictures???
Thanks in advance, and I'm sorry if it was a dumb or unclear question
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL
Sam.

graphics challenge communities?
Dec. 30th, 2012 09:09 pmpiecesFor all you graphics makers here, can you recommend any challenge or contest communities on Dreamwidth? Hopefully ones that 1) don't discriminate against beginners/aren't exclusive to popular makers, and 2) are still active until now (and will continue to be active in the future, or at least will not be abandoned without prior notice).
Top Comms?
Nov. 12th, 2012 11:15 amfalling_snowI'm looking for a Dreamwidth equivalent of the Community Ratings, if there is one?
While I initially wasn't a huge fan of this feaature on LJ, I would really love to find active Dreamwidth communities relevant to my interests, and i'm having trouble finding active comms that aren't fandom-based.
Halp?

galufI noticed that plenty of large LiveJournal communities (the ones with thousands of members) have created their own "sub" off-topic communities for the members. DW is significantly different in that there aren't as many gigantic communities, so naturally, I haven't been able to find an active OT one around.
Therefore, I'd like to welcome you all to joinffa--where anything goes! Consider it a free-for-all forum where you can stop by and say anything on your mind. This is different than a friending meme, because you can mingle with other DW users (about anything) without feeling obligated to add each other as friends!

(Not-so) Newbie here!
Nov. 4th, 2012 05:31 pmgigirl942 Hey, I'm (kinda sorta) new. You can call me Gigi. I've had a Dreamwidth for a little while, but I've only recently gotten off my lazy butt to sort out my Reading page. From now on, I'm going to be more active on here in light of the recent LJ updates. I hope I'll enjoy my stay here!
I've also noticed a lack of active general Disney fan communities on here (whereas on LJ there were a bunch), so if you're looking for one, jointhelaughingplace, freshly created and ready to go!
Nice to meet you all. :)
