I had an idea.
I used to write more rec posts, but sometimes it seems like it will take up too much time, and so I'll just fire off a link to a friend instead. However, I LOVE reading other people's recs. There are lovely people who rec regularly, and other lovely people who rec occasionally, when they feel like it, but I always wish there were more recs, particularly for current fests and fic / art that's being posted now. If there's a fest on and I've got a bit behind, it can seem so intimidating and I don't know where to begin, so a few recs can help me immensely. Even if I've already read the fic, I enjoy seeing what other people thought of it. And not forgetting the fact it is an enormous pleasure when something you've written gets recced (for some reason this is especially satisfying while it's still anon).
Anyway, I thought I would like to make a commitment to write MORE RECS during the next month. I want to make a rec post at least once a week - I'm hoping that with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
hd_fan_fair beginning, and lots of other fests continuing, this will be a piece of cake :D
I wondered whether anyone would like to join me? It would be so nice to see a kind of mini-explosion of recs during October. I even thought of a name. RECTOBER. Oh yes. It sounds a bit rectal, doesn't it? SO MUCH THE BETTER.
I can't do banners and clever things, but if anyone wanted to make a RECTOBER banner I would love you a lot.
Meanwhile here is a poll:
[Poll #1935728][Poll #1935728]
If nobody likes the idea of Rectober, I have another idea: Nictober. I'll leave it in your hands :DDD
