Fandom post
Nov. 25th, 2018 10:44 pmTell us about your fandoms!
Remember to make sure they fit the criteria as outlined in the rules:
-Substantial parts of the fandom must take place during WWI. It does not have to take place on the front lines, or even close to them. As long as the characters are in some way being affected by the war, it counts. For example, the second season of Downton Abbey would qualify, as would any series taking place on the home front.
-When nominating a canon where large parts do not centre around WWI, for example Young Indiana Jones or Blackadder, it is to be understood that the requests will centres around the part of canon relevant to WWI.
-Exceptions to the above may occur for RPF.
Addendum: If you wish to rec something that takes place over a longer span of time than just WWI, it might be wise to spend a sentence or two describing how it fits into the 'war' part of the canon.
For example: "The second and third volume of Pregnesia in Time focus on Abbey's life as a nurse, after her husband joins up. She ends up having to do things she never thought she would have to, including amputation and open-heart surgery."
