Fandom Promos

[galerian_ash]

Have you already decided what fandom(s) to write for? If so, how about doing some pimping? :D

We've all chosen tiny obscure canons, needless to say. So by doing a little promoting you might be able to entice someone else to give it a try — or perhaps you'll even run into a fellow fan, who can't wait to read your coming fic.

Your promo can be long or short, and contain whatever you feel like. Want to post a couple of intriguing screencaps from a movie? Quote a few paragraphs from a book? Rec the best episode of an anime or TV series? Talk about why you love your favorite character/pairing from your fandom? It's all good; anything goes!

I wrote mine on the old "Ma and Pa Kettle" movies. Hillbilly-type folk with an average of 15 children (it varies based on the movie). Ma is super-competent, and Pa is a slow-moving lazy bag of bones who is at least very polite.



Also featured prominently is oldest son Tom, with whom I probably identify a little too strongly. I wonder what it is about bookish firstborns who don't quite fit in with the rest of their family that hits so hard...?



Technically my story takes place during the canon of "The Egg and I," a semi-biographical movie that invented the Kettles for comic relief, and they only later got their spinoff movies. "The Egg and I" tends to be way easier to get hold of than the others, even if it doesn't have nearly enough Marjorie Main for my taste.
