Dec. 7: December Meme

"What do you want for Christmas?"

Why, glad you asked!

MORE tricycleman STORIES!! It's the best, bestest, most wonderful shared world and I wish more people would become a part of it and/or contribute to it!!

We have now EIGHT regular weekly Bunker events, all of which I love (or, y'know, I wouldn't still be doing 'em), even perenially quiet events like Open Letters (still my favorite of all, I think). But septembers_coda and I aren't the only ones who can come up with weekly events. Women of Letters came up with SOO many fantastic ideas last summer for WoL Wednesdays. I would love to see spn_bunker folks coming up with their own weekly events and keeping them going for quite a while, making the posts, etc. (You can always schedule in advance if you're not sure you'll be around.) There's something about the predictability of a weekly event that loosens people up and gets them chatting. I would SOO love it if that happened to help get fandom really active 'round these parts. I hate it when I get online and it seems like nothing's going on, but I suspect other folks get online and think the same thing, so we're AROUND, it just seems like there's nothing particular to participate in at that moment, and more weekly events at the Bunker could remedy that. That one's a wish for all of us.

This may be silly, but I would love for folks to tell me what craft items they would buy, for example, from Etsy. (Market research, doncha know.) What kind of thing would you look for there, what would be the biggest draw of an item, etc.?

This one is pretty far-fetched, I know, but there is going to be a Denver con in November (almost a year from now) and it's looking like I'll be there, and I have this secret dream of meeting y'all. Colorado is so centrally located (being at the center of the U.S., and, naturally, the world ;-) ), I admit my fantasies have run away with me a couple of times, of ALL my fandom girls gathering in this one place to finally meet--a Bunker Party in the flesh! I'm well aware it's probably just a pipe dream, but if even ONE of y'all came and joined us and septembers_coda (in addition to you, vyperdd, since I know you'll be there! :-D ), that would be the coolest thing.

Thanks for asking! ;->
