beagoldfish | Prompt: New Year, New Fandom

Welcome, fish friends, to the first week of Be A Goldfish: A Multifandom Multimedia Microbang 2026-A. Cannonball! The water's fine. Let's kick things off with a prompt to jump-start your creativity:

New Year, New Fandom

Confetti, fireworks, sparkling beverages: 2026 begins! Let’s get this party started. Create a work for a fandom for which you have never created a work. Get out of your comfort zone. Paint a picture of a brand-new blorbo! Write meta for a fandom you’ve only ever lurked in! Anything will do so long as it’s new, or at least not yet shared.

Feel free to brainstorm, discuss, make friends, or let us know what you're cooking up in the comments here or on tumblr. We're excited to see what you create. Stay curious!
