Paying it forward

I am not generally a meme person, but this seemed a rather cool one. And who am I to pass up free stuff. Besides, I liked the movie. ^_^

By way of [livejournal.com profile] amothea:

PIF meme: I will send a gift to the first 3 people who leave a comment here in my LJ requesting to join this PIF (Pay-It-Forward) exchange. You will receive it within 365 days (actually probably a lot less than that). The only thing you have to do in return is "pay it forward" by making a similar agreement on your blog.

The "gift" you send doesn't have to be handmade. It can be fic, icons, whatever.


Your gift from me can be:

- a fic (please tell me what fandom you would like and give me a prompt, as detailed as you like -- the only caveat will be that I AM going to write it short, because we've all seen what happens when I get involved in a lot of ficathons at once; it's not pretty)

- a mini-vid (I am not going to promise a full-length vid because it will probably take me until 2012 to finish it -- but I will make you a vid that's a minute or so long; just tell me what fandom and/or song)

- ICONS! Let me know what you want.

- photo-manips or computer art (see my Pictures for Jeannie for an example of the sort of thing I do) - just tell me what you want

- regular art -- I paint (watercolor or acrylic) and draw (pencil, ink, charcoal). I can do SF or fantasy stuff, fanart, landscapes, portraits ... just ask for something.

- a signed copy of both my published graphic novels plus some related goodies

- a grab baggie of books and graphic novels from my pile of stuff I've read lately (in this case, you don't get to ask for anything specific -- you takes what you gets)

- a goodie of some kind from Alaska, where I live (if you don't specify something, it may be anything, from a box of smoked salmon or a touristy T-shirt, to something pretty that I make from the woods around our house, like a pressed flower/leaf picture or something carved of local wood. But if you want something specific, just ask!)

- an Ice Age fossil! Our yard is full of them! (Note: most are rather dull. And small. But they're still bits of bison and mammoth bone, if you find that sort of thing cool, and I have a rather large box full.)

- a knitted or crocheted something-or-other (tell me what you want and what size!)

- a surprise!

If you want something emailed to you by snail-mail, email me your address: layla (aaaat) ravenschildren.com

Okay, here's an SGA fic prompt:

The expedition finds out that a room they are using for one purpose was actually designed for another. It has to be a room that we have seen in canon being put to a specific, identifiable use.

Ooh, that's a really awesome prompt! I'm sure I can get something nifty out of that ... let me think about it!

Oh me! I love art or fic. :) Can I just email you the request details?

Am I too late? I'd love to participate if the offer is still open. I'll email you my request if it's still open. (so excited, even if I am too late cuz it's such a great idea! LOL!)
