Leave feedback for a fanwork. Or multiple fanworks. It can be as simple as I liked this to a detailed list of all the things you loved about the fanwork. The key is to leave some sort of feedback.
If you've already left feedback in the course of a previous challenge, it totally counts. But you're free to leave more feedback.
Afterwards, leave a comment in this post with the equivalent of "I did it!" If you feel so inclined, leave a link to the fanwork you left feedback for so others can check it out.
Done!
I read Fidelis by the_ragnarok, which was a really lovely look at John Reece's urgent need to be owned. Urgent. This is also the theme running through the current PoI fic that I'm writing. :D
I make a practice of leaving feedback regularly, for pretty much everything I read - kudos are for re-reads. Feedback on AO3 means a hell of a lot to me, and it's also a huge factor in whether I decide to read anyone else's work - my fic wouldn't meet my own standards, of course. I'm not very good at feedback, and it's mostly a variation on 'Thank you so much, this was a fantastic read!' but it's worth the couple seconds. Sometimes feedback is the only decent thing about your day.

Date: 2016-01-25 07:57 pm (UTC)I often leave comments on stories I've read multiple times, because I know I love to hear that as a writer, but for some reason I feel like more than two comments on a piece is going to make me sound like a weirdo. Which is ridiculous. I should get over that and just keep commenting.
