lunabee34Dear Remixer,
This will be my second remix, and I'm very excited about participating. I had such fun last year--both with the fics I wrote and the remix of my work. I think this is the ficathon most in keeping, most in tune, with what we as fans are about. I know that fandom means many things to many people, but for me, fandom is a glorious subversion, a celebration of what is and what might be, a peek between the closed curtains, a look behind or ahead or even sideways. We do these things to the source material with our fic, our icons, our art, our vids all the time, and Remix gives us a chance to give our fellow fans the same attention.
I believe that Remix is about the remixer, not the remixee, in the same way that I believe that the fanfic I've written is about me and my interpretation of canon and not so much Joss Whedon or J.J. Abrams. Do what you will; this is not about pleasing me.
I've ventured into new territory since last remix. There's RPF and Star Trek!reboot to play with now. Click the tag if you like and read last year's letter; I say a little bit more there about the focus of most of my fic that might be helpful.
Have fun and cross your fingers for me as I write as well.
