Friending Meme

[ysabetwordsmith]

The New Year is a good time for a friending meme. Lots of folks dust off their blogs in January, and snowflake_challenge is running (one of Dreamwidth's biggest events). You can answer here, and copy your response to your own blog to stir up more interest if you wish.

Who are you? Kat or spiralicious
Whereabouts do you live? PNW
Where else can you be found online? As far as spaces where I tend to be interactive, pretty much just here, but I am also regularly on Subeta, Instagram, Spotify, Good Reads, and Beanstack (though I am not sure I can friend anyone outside my library network on Beanstack).

How long have you been into creative bingo? The early 2010s?
Do you participate in any other bingo communities or fests, and if so, which ones? No, this is the only bingo comm I play at anymore.
What size cards do you like playing? I prefer to play a 5x5 card, but I usually end up playing a 2x2.
Do you usually use a public card or make your own? I almost always make my own.
How often do you make blackout? I was going to say, "rarely," but as I was typing that, it occurred to me that when I do a 2x2 card, I usually do a blackout.
What kind of fills do you make? When I first started playing here, I would go out of my way to make fills that were crafts, but I have time constraints now that don't allow for that as often, so I usually write fics, but I try to do different things when I can.
What are some of your favorite fandoms or original settings that you fill with? The fandoms I write most often here are Stargate SG-1, Startgate Atlantis, and Supernatural, but I do also write others.
What things do you enjoy seeing from other people's fills? Mostly, I just like seeing that they had fun with what they created.
What have been some favorite themes? I feel like I kind of have to say Winterfest in July and Fall Fest because I co-host those ;) Outside of those, my favorites have been Gothic Bingo Fest, National Crafting Month Fest, Summer in December, and didn't someone do at least a prompt list of non-sexual physical intimacy?
Can you think of themes you'd love to see that haven't been done yet? There have been so many great themes, it's hard to say. Of course now my brain is just churning out ideas because I sat here and thought about it too long. These could be interesting: cat theme, barbarian/fantasy theme, sci fi tropes, plant & fungi horror, liminal spaces, aesthetics (like there would be a set of cottagecore prompts, a set of vaperwave prompts, a set of old money prompts, a set of grunge prompts, etc), drunk texts theme, lipstick colors, I'm going to stop there. (I have a thing for making prompt lists.)

What is your blog like? Usually, its bits of life updates with some fandom thrown in for seasoning. Most content is usually locked, but there has been a lot of public posts recently.
How busy is it? Normally, I average 1-3 posts a week. Lately with the end of the year/beginning of the year season, it has been extremely busy, but that will die down. Last year, it was pretty dead though.
What topics do you post about most often? My life, animals in my life, observations, bingo cards, blogging memes, movies/tv shows/books/media I've consumed, goal progress, fandom thoughts, right now, I'm doing a series of tea reviews.
What kinds of friends are you looking for? People who are over 18 and have shared interests

Lipstick colors, or paint colors, would make awesome prompts lists! “Evergreen Fog”
“Foggy Day”
“Foggy London”

Yes! Vexed_wench did a crayola crayon themed bingo fest in the past, I believe. But color names are always a fun theme.
