ChoicesFandomAppreciation Celebrates: International Fanworks Day — February 15

For the past ten years, on February 15th, the Organization for Transformative Works has hosted International Fanworks Day to celebrate fanworks of all kinds: fics, art, videos, sines, meta, and more!

This year's theme is 10!

Some "10" prompts

10 fandom things that are meaningful to you

A fandom highlight from the past 10 years (even if ours isn't that old!)

Your favorite work from the last 10 days, 10 weeks, 10 months, and/or 10 years.

10 years ago, did you think you'd be here in the Choices fandom. What would you tell yourself about it? Where do you think you'll be in 10 years? Still creating fanworks (even if it's for a different fandom).

What did your pairings do for their 10 year anniversary?

What about their 10th birthday? (for MCs, LIs, or their kids)

Counting to ten (for any reason)

Include the number 10 anywhere lol

Summarize your favorite Choices book in 10 words (or even 10 emojis) Can we guess it?

^^^ same but make it a Choices LI instead of book!

Make a 10 second video/reel of your highlights from your time in the fandom

Your characters through the decades: create fanworks that highlight your characters in the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, etc.

10 x 10 (x10) : Write an exactly 100 word or 1,000 word story

10 colors that represent your character(s)/pairing(s)

If you made a fandom time capsule, what 10 items would you include?

10 wishes for the fandom (moving forward)

10 favorite Choices quotes

10 tropes you love

10 fanworks you recommend

10 word poem about a book/character

Rules/Guidelines

Tag @choicesfandomappreciation and #ChoicesFanworksDay

While the theme is "10", you do not have to include 10. I will share/promote any fanworks that tag me for this event.

Because I know me and I know I'm not alone, one day events are SO hard with our busy schedules so while the official day is February 15, I'm hosting our event through Sunday, the 18th.

Be Kind!

Please let me know if you have any questions or suggestions to make it better! I look forward to a great event!

Shoutout to @peonyblossom for bringing the event to my attention!

[ezekielbhandarivalleros]

7 of the Best of the Writers in the fandom (In no particular order)

@peonierose - I haven't read much of her stuff but what I have makes me want to recommend you to check them out.

@secretaryunpaid - She writes for TNA, her stories are the best out of all the writers for that story. Writing for that series takes skill you can't just plop them into any random plot and make it work.

@princess-geek - Check her Unspoken Desires series out (Desire and Decorum) a modern take on the series. It's also how we bonded and became good friends.

@aesthetic-aag - I'm biased, why wouldn't promote my best friends writing to you (Bloodbound). She can really write for Gaius pretty well.

@missameliep - No words, Just check out her writing especially her Blades writing.

@storyofmychoices - What happens when you mix Chibi art and fics together? That's right you get a whole bunch of wholesome stories.

@twinkleallnight - If you like The Royal Romance, you gotta check her stories out. I've read a handful (I don't remember which)

@choicesfandomappreciation

Top 10 Choices Villains

1. Azura: pure evil in the form of woman. I will forever hate her for what she did to Leon;

2. Astrid + Vincent Wescott: creating a secret society, sacrificing tons of people and traumatizing their own daughter for power (that made them stop aging). Rich people be crazy... 😳

3. Jason Shaw: sneaky bastard pretending to be nice, corrupt cop, threatened a teenager, killed people. You're on top 3, jerk!

4. Rheya Apostholus: her ability to control almost all vampires still gives me the creeps. But I can't deny her backstory is compelling;

5. Marc Antony: because making people fight 'til death in the Coloseum was just a normal Tuesday for him (and I bet he did worse in real life), this asshole deserves to be on top 5;

6. Barthelemy Beaumont senior: this mf'er killed Liam's mother, took away the heir, usurped the throne, traumatized his own sons and for that I hope he burns in hell;

7. Silas Prescott: destroying an entire city + traumatizing his own son for power. Rich people be crazy - part two;

8. Trystan Richards: disgusting bastard thirsty for power that nearly assaulted MC and almost killed the chosen LI. I loathe him;

9. Guy Ledford: self-centered jerk who used his own daughter to sell coupons for his stupid app and wanted custody of a child when he spent years without paying child support;

10. Vanessa Blackwood: no, you don't deserve forgiveness after what you did, you rich snob!

Honorable mention: Countess Henrietta and Madeleine Amaranth (she's more an antagonist than a villain, but I like to hate her 😂)

[storyofmychoices]

My top 10(kind of) favorite Choices Books for @choicesfandomappreciation

Okay so I can't figure out a top 10. I have a top 5 and then a bunch of books I really like but my preference for what order changes depending on my mood

Top Five:

Blades of Light & Shadow (all time fave)

Red Carpet Diaries 2 (the second half is everything)

Mother of the Year (3 amazing LI, and the worst choices villain)

Crimes of Passion (Trystan Thorne, that is all)

Open Heart (It started strong, and Bryce Lahela got me through the Covid years and I owe him so very much)

Other Books I love (in no particular order)

The Elementalists

The Crown and the Flame

Wake the Dead

A Courtesan of Rome

The Unexpected Heiress

Veil of Secret

#LoveHacks

Most Wanted

Red Carpet Diaries 3 (It's filled with flaws, but it's the only book where I can romance Thomas Hunt for the entire book)

[jerzwriter]

I'd like to thank @aria-ashryver for this idea; I got this from their post on the 10 times they made their characters cry! [This reminds me that I really need to get back to writing angst! lol]

This is in no order because it would take me 10 years to finish.lol

A Moment in Time - CoP AU - Trystan x Carolina (F!MC)

I love a good 'true love that's meant to be, but circumstances deem they can't be together' story. This was a very real possibility for them, and I needed to write an AU to explore it. (And yes, I know, I need to do the final part!)

Promises Made, Promises Kept - OH - Ethan x Kaycee (F!MC)

After a lifetime together, Ethan & Kaycee's daughter carries on a tradition for her father after he's gone.

Forever - OH AU - Ethan Ramsey x Kaycee (F!MC)

He let her go, except he never did, not even at the very end. This one was just cruel. I'm sorry. But I'm not.

See You Again - OH AU - Tobias x Casey (F!MC)

Tobias learns about the importance of friendship and how to move on after tragedy strikes. This one was just cruel, too. There is something wrong with me.

Unblemished & Unforgettable - OH AU - Tobias Carrick x Casey

Sometimes, walking away is the only way, no matter how much it hurts. These still makes me cry lol

In Another Time - OH - Tobias x Vincenza (F!OC) Ethan x Vincenza

Two friends in love with the same woman typically doesn't end well, but these two really mucked it up.

Delaying the Inevitable - OH AU - Ethan Ramsey x F!MC, Tobias Carrick x F!MC

This series had a lot of angst-filled moments. I think most would argue that Chapter 13 was the most tear-inducing. But here are some of my favorite tear-inducing parts... including Chapter 13. Ch. 6 Excerpt: Love for One - Tobias confesses his love for his best friend's girl, knowing it will never be more than a dream. (this is an excerpt from the full chapter.) Ch. 11: Shattered - When the past repeats itself, Ethan falls apart, and the fallout comes fast. Ch. 13: Break My Heart Again - Yeah, this is the one I'm hated for. lol Dark Ethan / broken Casey. Ch. 34: When Forever Falls Apart - Tragedy can change everything (and I fucked everyone up in this chapter! lol) Ch. 35: For Good - Reflection, change, and goodbyes.

Eli Sipes Prequel (Series) - WTD Prequel - Eli Sipes & Family

Honestly, I'm cheating here because this is a whole bunch of stories, but honestly, it's some of my favorite work that I've ever done. A zombie apocalypse lends itself to angst, and canon told us about The Sipes family's tragic end, but we didn't know their story. I wanted to tell it through the eyes of his mother in A Mother's Journal. Coming Up Blank is a companion series that tells the story of Eli and his brother, David, coming of age. Then, lastly, the last 2 days Eli has with his family - and yeah - "that" end is covered in The End of the World Part 1 and Part 2.

I struggled with the last 2, especially because I cheated. There are more than 10 up there, after all! lol Also, some of these are unfinished and I feel guilty... so here's a mish-mosh with no comments, but this is all angst: When the Bough Breaks Part 1 (OH-AU|Ethan x Kaycee); What's Forever For? (OH-AU|Tobias x Casey); Where it Goes From Here... (OH-AU|Tobias x Casey); What We Wish For (Series) (OH-AU| Tobias x Casey)
