Welcome to Small Fandoms Bang on DW

[sfbbmod]

This community was created as a mirror community to smallfandombang on LiveJournal. As of Round 9 (opening September 1, 2019) the Small Fandoms Bang challenge will be run out of this DW community solely.

The schedule for the current/next round can be found on the community profile and the FAQ.

If you don't have a DW account you may comment to the sign-up post(s), check-in posts, etc and also post your fic/art announcements to the comm (we'll work with you on that!) with OpenID. So whether you participate from LJ or Tumblr or someplace else, you are still welcome and able to play in this small fandom sandbox, and I sincerely and wholeheartedly hope that those of you who have played in the past will continue to do so, and those of you who are just finding us will come on over and join in the fun.

If you have any questions you may ask them here or contact me at the mod account, sfbbmod @ gmail.com.

If you moderate a small fandom community, or a multi-fandom community that includes small fandoms, and would like to affiliate, please comment HERE.


The master lists for each round can be found HERE and our support comm is located at smallfandomcafe. All other important links can be found in the links section.

Hi, I just realized that I used another pseudo from the last round. Would it be possible to change it? My old pseudo was Manuushuu, and I'm currently participating as Shuufleur (you can also use my DW handle).

Thanks!

[sfbbmod]

Are you saying that you want me to change manuushuu to shuufleur in the tags? I will use whichever user name (LJ or DW) you want me to, just let me know which you prefer.

[shuufleur93]

Yes, that's what I meant, sorry if it wasn't clear. You can change it to Shuufleur then.
Thank you. :)

[sfbbmod]

I just wanted to clarify before I did anything. I've made the change.

By the chance, would Fatal Frame/SPN together be considered a small fandom? Or just Fatal Frame?

[sfbbmod]

Just Fatal Frame. Both crossover fandoms need to be small to qualify for this bang.

Hi I forgot which fandoms I put down for this round I got so busy with other projects and planning a trip I forgot to write them down.

Hello! I wanted to know if Epic: The Musical, The Iliad, and The Odyssey counted as small?

I also wanted to know if I pulled from other Greek mythological sources for information, if I would have to tag it as the overarching Greek Mythology tag, which then would disqualify it? It is hard to write fanfic for specific myths or media based off those myths without pulling from past myths (in the same way it is difficult to write a fanfic for a sequel specifically) but I personally would not count it as a crossover.

[sfbbmod]

All three fandoms do qualify, but for clarification, is EPIC - Jorge Rivera-Herrans (Albums) the same as Epic: The Musical? Thank you!

We just won't label it as Greek Mythology. *g*

[shadowedlove97]

Yes it is haha. Thank you for the quick reply and clarification!

[sfbbmod]

You're welcome!

Hi! I'm a returning author and artist for the bang this year. I was wondering if I could get another invitation to the smallfandomcafe community--I can't access my initial one anymore!

[sfbbmod]

Sent! They only last for 30 days.

[shehungthemoon]

Thank you! Yeah totally forgot to accept it this time 😅

Hi.

I know the current round isn't over, but I'm thinking about joining and signing up for the next one. But I have a question, and I thought I might as well go ahead and ask.

Recently, I became a fan of a pair of sketch comics about whom most everyone seems to have forgotten (their heyday was in the Fifties through the Seventies; plus, they only had a brief following outside of their country of origin, so they're not well known now).

As I'm pretty sure that I'm the only one who's written for them (three fics in total), would these guys qualify as a small fandom? Or would I perhaps have to narrow it down sketchwise? I don't have an AO3 account, so I haven't looked into the matter over there. I do have a specific sketch in mind that I want to sign up with, if it's allowed.

I can provide links, if you need them, for the sake of clarification; just let me know, and I'll be happy to.
