Three Weeks for Dreamwidth

What I just posted on [personal profile] rydra_wong's journal re: [community profile] three_weeks_for_dw:

Soo... I love DW, and this past year, I've moved over here and don't crosspost to LJ any more (though I still comment over there with my old LJ username). Also, I am not a fan and not involved in any fic communities. But. I'm a writer and would like to try something out of my comfort zone for 3W4DW and write some fic for people. Can you recommend some journals to start following, and maybe someplace to look for a glossary of terms? I mean, I have picked up a few things, but often, I'm completely lost in acronymville.

(Feel free to say "Well, no, I'm too busy to do your homework for you!")

Hmm, are there shows or books you're particularly interested in writing about? That'd give me some better ideas for journals to recommend. Otherwise... [personal profile] thefourthvine might be a good person to start with-- check out her recs posts for amusingly written recs in many fandoms, and some good commentary on fandom in general.

Fanlore has a glossary and is a great place to look up other terms/concepts as well.

Ha! I was just about to come rushing over to rec [personal profile] thefourthvine, having been reminded by her latest post. She's always delightful to read, and has wonderful taste.
