It's a love meme!

[kaberett]

Because November is hard for lots of us, and in particular is something I find hard (my not-quite-month of mourning begins tomorrow, officially); because it's spring in the southern hemisphere and the days just keep getting shorter in the northern; because I talked to my counsellor yesterday about all of the shapes and forms that value takes.

This post will close to new nominations at the end of the month (because November), though I'll keep unscreening comments after that point if any new ones do come in.

Love meme

♥ Nominate yourself or someone else, anonymously or logged-in, by putting your/their username in the subject line of a comment to this entry. If you do not know for certain the person's preferred pronouns and they do not list them on their DW profile, please use gender neutral pronouns as a default. Other people can then reply to that comment with goopy declarations of love, reasons that person is awesome, sparkly expressions of admiration, etc! All comments are screened, and I'll unscreen them as they arrive. (So, if your comment doesn't appear right away, please be patient; I'll leave my online status at the bottom of this post to keep people updated on whether I'm unscreening or not.)

♥ If you don't want to be nominated, or don't want comments referring to certain things [body/appearance, wrong pronouns, etc] to appear on your thread, please let me know; I won't unscreen any such comment or nomination. If I make a mistake in unscreening something, if you want a comment to your thread unscreened or deleted, if you have any concerns you need to raise -- please just tell me, and I'll attend to it as soon as I can. If there are any inappropriate comments made to a thread, I will check with the person being referred to before unscreening.

♥ Share the love: please do send people over here (and to your own thread!) Words-and-deeds it up if you like, but that's not obligatory!

♥ These guidelines are modeled on dingsi's love meme guidelines, with modifications by jjhunter and wording lifted from surpassingly.

♥ That's it -- happy posting!

Reading your comments is always lovely; they are so consistently thoughtful/gentle/kind <3

Re: calissa

[raze]

Calissa is a thoughtful and engaging person to have on your DWircle. They have a busy schedule but always take time to make the people in their circle feel cared for. In addition to being a skilled editor, they are a talented writer and very involved in the local fiction community in addition to maintaining an online presence.

Re: calissa

[calissa]

<3 Thank you.

Re: calissa

[cosmolinguist]

I really appreciate the way calissa leaves encouraging and supportive comments when I'm just writing about the drudgery of the day-to-day existence or complaining about something that's gone wrong.

Re: calissa

[calissa]

Thank you! Although I know the day-to-day stuff can seem trivial when you're writing about it, I often find it's the most interesting stuff to read and a good way to connect.

Re: calissa

[alee_grrl]

I've really enjoyed getting to know calissa. Their entries are always thought provoking and interesting. I quite enjoy reading about their adventures in editing as well as their other writings. The photos they post always make me want to visit Australia, and I love bonding with them over tea. They have been super supportive and generally awesome and I am very thankful to have them in my circle.

Re: calissa

[calissa]

Thank you! I've really enjoyed getting to know you, too. It makes me wish I lived closer by.

Re: calissa

[calissa]

Oh, thank you! It is very sweet of you to think of me. I appreciate it <3

Re: calissa

[alexseanchai]

You read and review with such enthusiasm.

Thank you!

Re: calissa

[davidgillon]

Love your posts, and love your comments too. So nice to see a window into the SF/F community down-under.

Re: calissa

[calissa]

Thank you! I'm very glad to be such a window.

Re: calissa

[kaberett]

Calissa brings beauty into my life, over and over, in ways large and small; I appreciate and value their thoughtfulness and most particularly their reflectiveness. And I am also always, always super-grateful for the awesome fic recs. (Beauty, in particular, in their photographs.)

Re: calissa

[calissa]

I had a really difficult day yesterday. Stumbling across your comment this morning brought tears to my eyes. Thank you.
