Come join in for fun, memes, activities, and more ♥

You can subscribe to the community, 3weeks4dreamdwidth and/or there is a feed you can subscribe to, just as you would a community. (This feed is a bit like the track tag at Tumblr, collating all the posts using the specified tag).

"Three Weeks for Dreamwidth runs April 25-May 15. During this time, people post content only visible on Dreamwidth (although it can be reposted elsewhere after the event ends)."

You can read more at this post and at ysabetwordsmith's post which gives some ideas on ways to participate.
Basically, create, tag, read, enjoy!

Thanks for this post!

I don't really understand this 3W4D but enchantedsleeper has set something up which I'll be doing. Basically talking about why I love some of my fics. I decided because I'm invisible in real life, it's not big-headed to talk about my own fics on my own blog.

Self-promotion is valid and often necessary if you want a decent audience, so you go for it!

At it's core, I think 3W4SW is about making content to keep Dreamwidth active and hopefully finding new things to enjoy/new friends or communities. Just like the Snowflake Challenge and Sunshine Challenge (the summer equivalent of Snowflake) it's giving people a little nudge to post and not just read :)

It's not even that, I just want to have a part of my life where I can think only about myself and my interests. Instead of constantly looking after other people, putting their wants and needs first 24/7 🙄

This sort of challenge sounds like a good thing. When is the Sunshine Challenge, again? I know you've told me before 😋 Although I think I'm more of a poster than a reader, haha.

You deserve that space for yourself. You care so much for others but you need time and space that is for you alone.

I don't know I've mentioned it to you before but maybe? I follow the community but I haven't managed to participate in it myself, so maybe this year! sunshine_challenge runs in July. Last year it had seven challenges. You can see the main post from last year for an idea of what to expect :)

Thank you 😊 I know eventually my daughter will grow up and my mum will pass on, I'll probably want this time back but it has been so tiring.

Ah thanks, I'll check those out.
