I Dithered Until The Last Day, But Ive Submitted My Willingness To Write A Fanfic For Fandom Trumps Hate.

I dithered until the last day, but I’ve submitted my willingness to write a fanfic for Fandom Trumps Hate. I’ve been bouncing around a lot, starting stories with several different MCU pairings, but donate to one of the auction’s good causes and I promise I will settle down and focus!  

Creator Signups for FTH 2022 are open!

Be sure to read over our newly-updated FAQ, along with our post about a couple of changes in signups this year.

If you are a first-time FTH creator, you should also take a look at our list of tips for first-time creators (repeat creators might find some helpful info here, too!).

Once you've done all that, and you know what you want to offer, head on over to the signup form! Remember that you need to fill it out once for each auction you want to offer, up to three total.

The signup form will be open until February 13 (you also have until then to edit your signups; after that you'll have to email the mods directly).

I am bowled away by these gorgeous infographic photos by @kittynaut!

Browsing is open! Please go forth and find interesting offerings that you would like to bid on to support good causes. Mine is  here: https://fth2022offerings.dreamwidth.org/tag/username:+elayna

I’m actually going off tomorrow and will likely not be on Tumblr until Saturday. So this will be your one reminder from me until almost the end of the auction. Have fun supporting creativity and important issues!    

FTH Auction Browsing Is Open!

The moment you've been waiting for is here! You can now go to https://fth2022offerings.dreamwidth.org and browse all 600+ of our auction posts!

Remember: Bidding does not start until Wednesday morning. Bidding forms are not currently open. If you find one accepting bids due to some glitch, any bids placed before 8am EST on February 23 will not be valid.

There is a sticky explaining Dreamwidth's tagging system if you haven't used it before - their tags are really great, it's one of the main reasons we host the auction there!

If you are a creator, there is also a list of things to check your auction post for. Browsing week isn't just for bidders - it's an important time for you to make sure your auction is the way you want it before bidding opens!

As always, if you find any problems, please email us rather than contacting us via social media: fandomtrumpshate @ gmail.com

Alternatively, there’s nothing like watching a terrible movie just because of one hot actor who’s in it to make you appreciate that technology makes it easy to find that terrible movie to watch, and to delight that your current fannish obsession found any kind of job to keep developing their craft and feed themselves until they hit that perfect role that made you love them completely and obsessively and for all time. 

there’s nothing like watching a terrible movie just because of one (1) hot actor who’s in it to make you feel like you’ve abandoned all your morals and standards
