Description:

The Feb 2014 Fandom in a Mini Bag swap is Terry Pratchett’s Discworld.

Step 1: Please list in the comments your favorite characters, books, things you like to receive, any dislikes, etc.

Step 2: After partners are assigned, check to see what your partner likes. You can follow-up with a message if you need to know more. Then scrounge up, buy, and/or create items that fit in a bag. Your bag must contain at least 5 different items although more is certainly encouraged to make your bag look full of goodies.

Some ideas of themed items: stickers, ATCs, postcards, toys/action figures, comics, note cards, pins/buttons, magnets, jewelry, trading cards, charms, ornaments, bookmarks, address labels, plushies/stuffies, promo stills/autograph cards, fanfic drabbles/ficlets, etc.

More specific ideas: Ankh-Morpork City Watch badge, guild membership card, Unseen University dinner menu, plushie/ornament dragon, Nac Mac Feegle artefacts (the mind boggles…), Mrs Gogol’s gumbo recipe, Angua’s recommendations for a glossy coat, front page of The Times of Ankh-Morpork, Nanny Ogg’s song book, Susan’s book of advice for governesses, etc.

Be sure to check your partner's profile so you don't send anything he or she might be allergic to.

Step 3: Put the items in a ziplock-type bag. Size: 1 quart (AT LEAST 8.5 inches by 7 inches or 21.5cm by 18cm). You can decorate the bag or incorporate the bag into something (mount it or sew something around it). If you want to make or buy a bag instead of using a ziplock plastic one, that's fine as well, but it should be at least a quart in size. All items you gather or create should fit into the bag (if a couple are too big, that's fine).

Assemble your bags during the month of February and please send by the deadline (March 1)

Group rating rules apply. NO FLAKING ALLOWED! All flakers will be subjected to the punishment reserved by Lord Vetinari for mime artists.

My absolute favourite Discworld characters are Sam Vimes and Lady Sybil, but I'm also very fond of many others: Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg, Tiffany Aching, the Nac Mac Feegle, Death, the wizards of Unseen University, all the other members of the City Watch, Binky, Greebo... I can't really think of anyone I don't like.

I like fanfic recommendations, love Paul Kidby's Discworld art, and will be happy to receive anything really!

So pretty much anything Discworld is good by me. Literally. Anything.

As far as faves go -- Greebo, Lord Vetinari, Nanny Ogg, Detritus, Rincewind, Susan, Nac Mac Feegles.

I honestly think I will love anything, so feel free to surprise me!

My Favourite characters are: Death, Librarian, Luggage, and Granny Weatherwax. I also have a special spot for C.M.O.T. Dibbler and Greebo. But I will love anything from the series.

I'm not a huge fan of fanfic but love fan art.
