Challenge #11

In your own space, recommend a fannish or creative resource.

Not to be totally lame or anything, but… I mostly just google for things with increasing desperation, and usually find a bunch of interesting things along the way -- like the time I found someone who had tried to calculate the area of the FF15 map while I was trying to get some rough idea of how long travel would take in the game. I also turn to fandom.com wikis very frequently -- they're (almost always) so useful for a variety of canon information, timelines, quotes, things you didn't even notice when you were consuming whatever media the wiki is for…

I've also been onto youtube a lot recently for writing advice and tools. There's a lot I could link but I will try to keep it brief with just a few faves: there's this video about the plot embryo from Rachael Stephen, which I found pretty enlighting; this playlist about plotting from Heart Breathings -- whom I also love for their kanban planning videos; and this video about using a scene card from Abbie Emmons, which might really be about how to write character driven stories?

I've really been impressed by fandom wikis for video games especially. I guess it makes sense that in an interactive medium where it's easy to miss content, you'd want some pretty good documentation, but I'm just in awe!
