Oh, I remember alazysod once did icons with favorite quotes from people's favorite fanfictions. I remember thinking that was really cool.
It would actually be a really fun theme for a sort of fic exchange type of thing only with fanartists (or wanna be fanartists). Where everybody gets assigned an author or a fic and has to create some sort of art inspired by it.
Poscasting... Again, I have no experience with it either.
This place, lists a few howtos. I know my mp3 player has a built in mic (kinda like a dictaphone). And livejournal has the option of voice posts where you just call a telephone number and it records your phone call to an mp3 and posts it in your journal. So maybe that would work too?
A challenge where you write a fic in somebody else's universe.
There's something like that in Supernatural fandom - spn_remix, where you're assigned another author and you take any story they've written and write something in that universe. I like the idea a lot.
I've never been a big fan of podfic, though having someone read their own story might be interesting...
Like I said, I was really surprised when I tried listen to a podcast fic for the first time and noticed that some things sounded really strange. Things that I would have read over while reading it. I don't know if those things are really annoying or just the way the person read it, but really annoying were several "as if"s and a bunch of "Green eyes did this", "Brown eyes did that"... It was probably a good story, but while listening to it, I really noticed those things.
So I wonder if it wouldn't also be an interesting thing for an author to hear their story and really hear the flaws.
I like that first one a lot. Maybe we could do something like that here at some point in the future. Definitely after pbfic_exchange2.
I probably wouldn't do the second one. I hate the sound of my voice on recordings. I sound like Minnie Mouse or something. lol. But it would be interesting if some other people do it.

Maybe it could be fun if we could persuade fans from different countries with therefore different accents to read a story :)
