Fandom Promos

[galerian_ash]

Have 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!

Whew! I finally finished my entry :D I had to do a few drafts, but I'm happy with it now. And now that I'm done writing it, I can promote the game I wrote it for.

The game I wrote for is Divi-Dead, and it was one of the earliest visual novels/ADV games translated to English. It falls somewhere under adult horror, and has a healthy dose of surrealism.

Unfortunately, the English translation leaves a lot to be desired. While the original game is already rather out there, the English version mistranslates a lot of things. I wouldn't recommend playing it, for the most part.

I've been a visual novel fan for over a decade now, though, and Divi-Dead was one of the first "adult" games I played. The dream-like atmosphere and the visuals of the game itself are striking, and it influenced a lot of what I currently enjoy. So... I guess it'd feel weird if I didn't write something for it, since no one else has.
