Okay, in my case, this'll be three weeks for Dreamwidth minus the first day because I was still trying to work out what it was (it's about creating content exclusively for DW by posting something every day for three weeks... right?). Because I'm special. Right? I'm a special snowflake. *puts on Special Snowflake hat*

*g*

Not at work today, hoorah. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the day, yet, except that I'm going to make a Queen of Puddings - partly for the name, I have to admit, and partly because I've never had it and it looks fairly easy and tasty.

But mostly for the name.

ETA: Aha, yvi has explained it in terms simple enough for me to understand (*g*) - it's not about posting every day, but about the content staying exclusively on DW for three weeks after posting it. Okay, that makes sense!

it's about creating content exclusively for DW by posting something every day for three weeks... right?

Almost? It#s about creating content that stays exclusively on DW for three weeks afer posting it. Absolutely no need to post every day.

Ah, right! I thought I wasn't quite grasping the concept.

I tend not to crosspost much anyway, so maybe I'll set myself a personal challenge of posting something every day for three weeks... :)

[yvi]

I think people are getting a bit confused because people like me who don't post anywhere else anyway have modified this to be "post something substantial every day".

[pepper]

Yeah, I think that's what's been throwing me.

I vaguely thought about posting one of those "prompt me what I should blog about" things I've been seeing around, but my brain tends to seize up when given prompts (dammit).

FWIW, I found it entertaining (and strangely illuminating) to pick a bunch of things I was interested in writing about and then put up a poll.

ETA: central organizing comm is three_weeks_for_dw, and there's also a tag feed, so any public posts tagged with "three weeks for dreamwidth" or "threeweeks" will show up here:

Ta! I did find the comm, but I kind of failed at reading comprehension. :)

Hmm, that sounds like an idea. *thinks*...

You could rec apocafic over at sg1genrecs! That's DW-exclusive. ::hint hint::

Also, there is birthday fic waiting for you over at my journal. Not DW-exclusive, but full of squishes anyway. :)

Hee. Well, I'm not very good at reccing, but I'll give it a go. And THANK YOU! :D

I've seen that "every day" thing on a couple of my friends' dw journals, so you're not the only one confused by it.

Since my dw journal is primarily a writing one and I'm having trouble processing *any* thoughts, I don't know how well I'm going to participate in this 3 weeks for dw, but I'd like to.

And go you!

WHEEEEE!!!! BIRTHDAY!!!!!

[pepper]

Heh, glad I'm not the only one.

I'm probably just going to blather briefly every day - I can certainly do that. I don't think I could post thinky stuff (not that I ever post thinky stuff...).

Birthdays rock! :D
