three weeks for dreamwidth challenge: fuck yeah, she's awesome

[such_heights]

Dreamwidth users, three_weeks_for_dw participants, I hereby issue you a CHALLENGE.

This challenge is inspired by arch, who wrote Martha Jones Is a Big Damn Hero: "Smith & Jones", a fantastic post about why Martha is great.

The challenge goes like this: tell us about a female character you love. Make icons, write some meta, picspam her best scenes, make a vid, write an episode recap, write fic, tell us your favourite quotes about/said by her. Be as creative as you like!

As part of Three Weeks For Dreamwidth, any contributions should be DW-only for three weeks after posting, then you're welcome to archive anywhere. I will post regular roundups of entries. Depending on level of interest, prizes may be available!

In short:

Make a post, on Dreamwidth, about a female character. Tag it 'fuck yeah she's awesome' and 'three weeks for dreamwidth'. Link to it in the comments of this post!

[arch]

Yay! What a fantastic idea! I am so looking forward to reading about other awesome ladies!

[sarasvati]

Thank you for giving me the inspiration to write about a character I love! My own "Fuck Yeah, She's Awesome" post is here, if you'd like to read it!

I can't wait to see what other people write on this topic!

[lunarwolfik]

This is an awesome idea!

[dorkpie]

:D I love this idea. I might do this either tomorrow or Wednesday, after I pick my favorite female character.

[miss_haitch]

This is a fabulous idea. *gets working*

[gorgeousnerd]

Oh, I am so doing this. I'll get back to you in a couple days!

[gorgeousnerd]

I did a meta and a picspam for Elena Gilbert from The Vampire Diaries (the show). If I have time, I'm going to take on another character, too!

[iamshadow]

Because there's been a lot of River!hate going on, I felt that I should dust off this fic and show it off. Why? Because River is awesome, and there's too much hating of female characters by women in fandom.

Children of Time, Gen, G, River Song. Click the link for full header and spoiler details.

[redsnake05]

Cool! I am definitely going to do this.

[glass_icarus]

LAHV LAHV LAHV. :D

[such_heights]

I WANT YOUR LAHV.

... what?

[glass_icarus]

... WELL THEN. A GHASTLY LIAISON WE SHALL HAVE!

*runs* xD

[emei]

Ooh, great idea. I'll try to put something together. Picspam/intro post sort of thing for my favourite childhood heroine, maybe.

[gehayi]

Oooh, I like this. I'll try to do something for this. I think of a lot of heroines I can write about.

[manifesta]

Eeeee. LOVE.

[highlyeccentric]

Oooh, I like this idea!

Possibly I shall use this to *trick* myself into writing my thesis proposal by extolling the virtues of obscure medieval romance characters...

[fly_to_dawn]

WHO TO CHOOSE, omg.

[fly_to_dawn]

Fuck Yeah, Enmyria's Awesome!

Because that hot badass bandit chick from 2x11 needs more love.

[briar_pipe]

FUCK YEAH! I need to adopt her STAT.

[hector_rashbaum]

The Macy Misa (of Disney's JONAS) Manifesto.

[geminianeyes]

Would this entry be eligible? It was created before 3 weeks, but the entry's awesome and as far as I know, she exists only on DW.

[such_heights]

If the poster would like to submit it, she's very welcome! The rules are flexible to say the least.

[geminianeyes]

YAY! She says it's perfectly fine by her if we submit it. :D (sorry for the late reply, forgot to reply to your comment). >

[epporsimuove]

Jenny Shepard from NCIS? Fuck Yeah, She's Awesome.

[timeasmymeasure]

Awesome idea!

[arobynsung]

Ladies of Camelot picspam over here.

[bells]

Finished my first "she's awesome" picspam, Parker from Leverage. *contains spoilers*

[meridian_rose]

Parker truly is awesome! Lovely picspam :)

[dreamwriteremmy]

a bit of a different take on this from us... mostly because this combines some rather brief fandom meta with our personal take. ~Dreamers^Soma & Mathias

Mina Hakuba

Hello! I did (somewhat embarassingly extensive, homg, could not quite stop) picspam of Lwaxana Troi from Star Trek: TNG and DS9 (with brief digressions into picspam of Kira and Dax). Cheers, I love this idea :)

[arobynsung]

Made some icons of Cara from Legend of The Seeker.

[be_themoon]

This isn't a Three Weeks for Dreamwidth post (though it will be only on DW indefinitely), but I made a vid for Amy Pond, because she IS awesome.

Wild Child, here.
