Calling all Shadowhunters fic writers! I need your feedback for Author Appreciation Day 2.0!

Last year, this blog dedicated a single day to show the fandom’s appreciation for our amazing fic writers on National Author’s Day. Numerous readers and fic writers participated by leaving supportive and appreciative messages, which were then shared with the fandom on November 1, 2017.

I am definitely planning on making this an annual event, as I think it helps bring some positivity to the fandom and highlights a portion of our incredible artists who I feel often go underappreciated. This year, I want to do something a bit different and one of my ideas goes far beyond what I did last year. It would take a lot of planning, so I want to know if there’s interest in it first.

If you write any fanfiction for the Shadowhunters fandom – whether it be for Malec, Clace, Sizzy, Saia, Clizzy, Climon, Saphael, Jimon, BrOTPs, character-centric fics, family fics, or something else – please take part in the polls that are currently live on our Twitter account and will remain open until April 7th.

Question #1: Would you feel comfortable providing a mailing address to a private form so something small could be physically sent to you? The information would NEVER be made public. It would only be used for sending you something showing the fandom’s appreciation.

Please participate in the poll for Question #1 here.

Question #2: Instead of something being physically sent to you, would you prefer that there was an option where the object showing the fandom’s appreciation could be sent as an attachment via email? Again, this address would NEVER be made public.

Please participate in the poll for Question #2 here.

Thanks in advance for your feedback and for your contributions to the fandom!

Summary:

Alec asks the question so softly Magnus could pretend to miss it. ‘What was your mom like?’

Magnus carried centuries of hurt with him into this relationship. Letting go of his fears is sometimes harder than he wants it to be. He wants it to be easy to share every part of himself with Alec, but wanting something and being able to do it are two very different things.
