silveradeptIn your own space, create a fannish wishlist. No limits on size or type of fanwork; just tell us what you’d like to see.
Peace on earth, good will toward all. Inside fandom and outside of it. And not in some Monkey's paw or secretly dystopian way, either.
If I can't get that, though, here's what else might make things nice.
And also, possibly? Knowing what the things I really want in fanwork actually are might help. I don't think I've got that, either.

- Helping me get caught up on the last several years of media -- I watched a lot of singing competition shows and CBS cop dramas and not much else over the last several years. I could use a catchup in just about everything (besides bad reality shows) including animation and books and comics and all of it. Not that I'll necessarily be able to get around to catching up, but plenty of y'all are talking about things I have not heard of and have no idea whether I want to devote time to.
- Moar discussion. I like think pieces and meta over large amounts of RP and the endless supply of material chasing megafandoms. Community recommendations or good long form would be great not just for me, but for plenty of others. And if we could manage to stop passing each other as ships in the night, that would be even better.
- A Time Turner or a TARDIS, so that I can both go to work and manage to catch up on the endless supply of interesting things that I have yet to read.
- A fandom matcher. Sort of how AO3 matches people for exchanges, if there are a way we could do that for people, that would be groovy, because I get kind of nervous and then a little burnt out on reading person after person in friending memes, if I'm going to be honest, and often for not a lot of apparent gain. Let the algorithms do the work, and see if they can't match us up reasonably well.
- Commissions. Not getting, but giving, because I see all the great fanart around and I want to support creators, but there's one more thing I need to be able to manage that.
- A forkton of money, so that I can pay debts and buy all sorts of nice goods and prints and stories that I have had my eye on, but realize am far too frugal to ever actually get, because there's always something more practical I could be spending the money on.
And also, possibly? Knowing what the things I really want in fanwork actually are might help. I don't think I've got that, either.

and fanfictionto Star Trek (esp Star Trek: TNG). I know McFarland isn't to everyone's tastes normally, but this is far less Family Guy/American Dad/whatever than expected, with some amazing characters. The early episodes are a little more jokey, but as of episode 3, it suddenly hits you over the head with social commentary. There are only 12 (I think) episodes in S1. It was on Fox but still may be on their On Demand or Amazon/iTunes etc.no subject
