4.
Stargate_Anniversary_Fest_2024 - COMPLETED - 12/25 - nothing this week
July-October is a celebration of ALL THINGS STARGATE - anything goes!
MY CARD
DEADLINE: OCT 31
----------------------------
5.
ficinabox 2024
The object is to create a minimum of 10k worth of work but it can be achieved in multiple stories or other fanworks. I have my assignment and I'll admit I was a little disappointed as I was only given the one recipient so the 'swap' part of the challenge didn't work out for me. We only matched on one fandom but the good thing about this challenge is I can write more than one story - just needs to total to 10K :)

fandom_empire R3 2024 - Mahjong
This started on SEP 8th. I needed to figure out the rules but the Mahjong card is shown in 2D so I truly cannot figure out what tiles will be freed up depending on what number I choose. Just going to have to guess! And to be honest, I'm sure it really doesn't matter that much in the end!
WEEK 1.1: Blind - 6 Icons of Xiao Xingchen, The Untamed
WEEK 1.2: Ruins - 6 Icons from The Last of Us (game)
ADDITIONAL 1.1: Music - 6 icons of Lan Wanji and Wei Wuxian, The Untamed

WEBSITES:
Most of the following will have to wait until I make the time to think it all through:
1. Scan/Upload clippings and other articles:
2. Reduce the overall number of files:
3. Sort out the eFiction archives:
4. Make sites mobile friendly: I am going to look as CSS GRID
5. Add items to empty albums:
smallweb September 2024: I have signed up for Small Web September as a way to give myself a kick up the ass concerning my goals for the websites.
Please remember to check out the GALLERY and FICTION archives for any new items/stories posted as I don't change the website UPDATE pages for these.

BOOKS/FAN STUFF **** POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT ****
FANFICTION: Still mostly The Yin-Yang Master: Dream of Eternity stories this week but a few other fandoms too such as Word of Honor and other Asian dramas.
BOOKS: And I still have Surviving the Evacuation Part 9: Ireland by Frank Tayell to make a start on reading.
----------------------------
MOVIES: nothing new this week
FANVIDS: nothing new this week
TV SHOWS:
Ashes of Love: Not seen any this week
The Untamed: I ended up binge-watching my bluray boxset of this show because I had only seen it once through before and wanted to see if I enjoyed it more now I have been more immersed in Cdramas. It still seemed a little slow in places and some scenes were a little too drawn out but overall it was very good. The story flowed a lot easier in my mind this time around and small moments made more sense to the overall story. I still prefer Word of Honor as I felt far more immersed and engaged in that story whereas, to me, The Untamed felt more detached in comparison. Also I think it was because the two male leads in Word of Honor spent a lot more time together whereas The Untamed had long stretches of episodes focused on only Wei Wuxian with Lan Wanji who knows where. I loved all the moments where they shared onscreen time.
The Walking Dead - The Ones Who Live: I still need to watch this.
TV SHOWS STILL TO WATCH
These are all the shows I have collected but have yet to watch. I must admit I've been too interested in all the Chinese, Korean, etc fantasy, horror and Gay dramas to have time to check anything off this list. I think I've burned out on SF/Superhero shows just for now.
