Multifandom Communities on Dreamwidth

[ysabetwordsmith]

lee_bella has posted a terrific list of multifandom communities over on potterfests.  Some of these may overlap with your bingo activities here, while others offer different inspiration and opportunities.

Thanks! That's a seriously terrific resource, and I'll definitely signal-boost it :)

You're welcome!

I'm impressed by it too. I asked lee_bella to mention it on follow_friday and twitter_refugees, so those are covered, but more boosting would be great. I love seeing folks make community lists for their interests.

So do I! It helps me feel more connected to the wider fammish community on DW, even if there are not as many fandom-specific communities now as there used to be in LJ's heyday.

Sooth.

Not quite as many, but the big fandoms can still rack up dozens of communities, fests, etc. I'm keeping an eye out for the places big enough to do these mongo lists, because they have so much potential.

Also, I'm having considerable luck through followfriday. Most of the time when I post a thematic list of active communities, one or two people say they've subscribed to a new one. So the more people I can get to make lists based on the things they see, the more of Dreamwidth and fandom and other interests we can cover.

If you want to try your hand at making a list for your favorite topic(s) then I'd love to see that too.

I can well believe that. Case in point: I just joined followfriday myself *g*

Thanks for the offer. And I think I'll try my hand on that later this year.

Yay! :D

A lot of the communities in the list above have also proved useful already :)
