In your own space, tell us about 3 creative/fannish resources, spaces, or communities you use or enjoy. (One or two is fine, especially if you're in a smaller fandom or like many people at the moment, fannishly adrift right now) Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
1) Dalibor Weyr, my post-by-post Pern RP site since October 2018. It is now the longest functioning Pern RP Weyr online, having opened in 2008 on ProBoards, just after Pern was opened to freely fannish, non-canon activity online. It's been on Jcink as of 2012.

2) The Foolish Fish Discord. Admittedly, it's $2 a month for access, but I find that it helps to weed out troll or troll-adjacent people. There's a strong emphasis on treating the other members as "coworkers" rather than "buddies", which is really appreciated.
3) My online book club! So far, we've read through:
- The Man Who Was Thursday
- The Communist Manifesto
- The Moonstone (I didn't finish this one)
- The Art of War (I couldn't find a translation I trusted, and I was busy)
- Casino Royale (I didn't read this one)
- Jane Eyre
- The Glass Bead Game
- The Scarlet Pimpernel (I didn't read this one)
- Till We Have Faces
- The Corn King and the Spring Queen (well, this was just me and 1 other member, since everyone else was busy with life stuff)
And we've just started She.

I like how varied your list is, it sounds like your online bookclub is going well.
