Your nightly link dump

[sholio]

I posted an announcement over on my little-used realname blog (and on Tumblr) that I'm restarting my Kismet webcomic again. Not 'til August because I still have quite a bit of work to do, and June-July are going to be really busy for me; August, however, should be pretty mellow and give me lots of time to focus on it. Anyway, you'll be hearing lots more about it in the months to come, I'm sure. :D I also created a Kismet tumblr; I'll be reblogging basically everything from there to my main tumblr, but I thought it'd be a good idea to have a designated Kismet tumblr so people can follow it without having to wade through the MCU gifsplosion that my other Tumblr has become.

On the topic of fannish stuff, avengersgen has a currently running promptfic round that is quite active (almost 200 comments so far!) so go check it out if you're looking for more LJ-based activity in this fandom.

Two upcoming Avengers-related fic exchanges that I ran across announcements for: Star Spangled Exchange (Steve-related), and Marvel POC Fanworks Exchange (characters of color in the MCU; fic or art).

FK Ficfest is taking signups again! This Forever Knight fic exchange is run by brightknightie and I really enjoyed it the year I played; it's fun and low-key ficathon in a small, pleasant fandom. Sadly I always seem to have too many obligations to participate (but I'm thinking about it).

Vague spoilers for the upcoming, last season of White Collar at this link. I ... don't know how to feel about that piece of information. Good? Bad? I am ambivalent.

Thanks to clicking on today's Google doodle, I discovered Mary Anning, who I'd never heard of, a working-class female fossil hunter in the early 19th century with a fascinating life story.

I think there were other things I wanted to link to, but I can't remember what ...

:-) As fkficfest/fkficfest is experimenting with allowing crossovers this year... if someone requests Steve Rogers and Nick Knight, or Nick Fury and Lucien Lacroix, you want to be there, right? :-)

Thanks for the promo! It was lovely having you in the game, and it would be a delight to get to have you again.

I'm thinking about it! :D I've gotten into trouble overloading myself with ficathon obligations in the past (especially for fandoms that aren't my usual ones, because then there is a lot of canon catchup involved and it takes a lot more time). But it is a beloved old fandom for me and I really enjoyed the year I did it, so ... thinking about it! :)
