Fandom Promos
2022-03-06 13:22Have you already decided what fandom(s) to write for? If so, how about doing a little promoting? :D
We've all chosen tiny obscure canons, needless to say. But by posting here 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 a TV series? Talk about why you love your favorite character and/or pairing from your fandom? It's all good; anything goes!

Easy (TV)
Date: 2022-03-11 22:55 (UTC)I had never heard of this show (it's on Netflix in the US) until I was looking up Gugu Mbatha-Raw, as you do, and found she'd done two episodes of this anthology show (1x07, "Chemistry Read" and 3x09, "She's Back"). She plays Sophie, a Chicago theater actress who's got a boyfriend, Drew, whom she loves but not to the point that she'll let him stand in the way of her dreams. When she's offered a role on a TV show shooting in LA, she goes, leaving her boyfriend the butcher behind. She comes back two years later for a benefit for her Chicago theater company and seeks out Drew and they have one of the most honest and incredible conversations I've ever seen two characters have; Gugu Mbatha-Raw and Jake Johnson knock it out of the park.
