We're fanfic writers, we spend hours researching an incredibly niche topic we know nothing about so that we can have one sentence be factually correct

I’m noticing an increase in new fic writers on AO3 who…uh…mayy not know how to format their fics correctly..so here is a quick and VERY important tip

Using a random fic of mine as example..

The left example: ✅✅✅

The right example: ❌❌❌

Idk how many times I’ve read a good fic summary and been so excited to read before clicking on it and being met with an ugly wall of text. When I see a huge text brick with zero full line breaks my eyes blur and I just siiiigh bc either I click out immediately or I grin and bear it…it’s insufferable!

If a new character speaks, you need a line break. If you notice a paragraph is becoming too large, go ahead and make a line break and/or maybe reconfigure the paragraph to flow better. I’m not a pro writer or even a huge fic writer but…please…ty…

#writing #formatting tips #I do the first one with my fic here on Tumblr #since the beginning #but also the 2nd one with the text indentions.

My little finding outside the movies - "Krumkake" ❄️

My last (ninth) finding is how many appearances of Krumkake in various books 😄 As Anna mentioned, there are a lot of bakers in Arendelle (from 'All Is Found: A Frozen Anthology - Engaging Anna and Kristoff'), this means lots of cookies, waffles, and pies are mentioned in various books. However, I've noticed that the cookie with the most appearances, which happens to be one of Anna's favorites, is Krumkake💙

Frozen: The Junior Novelization (Pg. 32)

2. A Frozen Heart (Pg. 90)

Based on the two books above, I believe that what Hans was eating was Krumkake:

3. Conceal, Don’t Feel (Pg. 16)

4. Dangerous Secrets: The Story of Iduna and Agnarr (Pg. 166)

5. "Engaging Anna and Kristoff" in All Is Found: A Frozen Anthology (Pg. 68)

6. "Anna and the King" in All Is Found: A Frozen Anthology (Pg. 186)

7. "The Next Right Thing" in All Is Found: A Frozen Anthology (Pg. 330)

8. Lost Legend: The Fixer Upper (Pg. 63)

9. "A New Reindeer Friend" in comic Disney Frozen Adventures: Ice and Magic (Pg. 51)

10. Frozen: The Essential Guide (Pg. 9)

11. Unlocking Arendelle: My Treasured Memories, it's interesting to know the Krumkake recipe and how to make it, love this book so much!

I'm making two little findings in a day 😄 This will be my final finding, it's so enjoyable to uncover the connection between various books. Honestly I can't believe it's been two months since I made the first finding, I would like to thank you to everyone who enjoys my little findings 💙 I haven't finished all the Frozen books, so I'll continue to add more whenever I find new ones (which I believe will be ongoing since there are so many Frozen books😂). I might compile all nine of my findings into a PDF, so stay tuned! 🔥

My little finding outside the movies - "Kingdom of Chatho" ❄️

My eighth finding is how many appearances of Kingdom of Chatho in various books 😄 There are many neighboring kingdoms to Arendelle, such as my latest finding, Vesterland, and other kingdoms like Zaria, Tikaani, and Eldora, which also make frequent appearances. However, I've decided to explore this kingdom next because of a story in 'Disney Adventure: Snowy Stories.' The story introduced the ruler of Chatho, Queen Colisa, who visited Arendelle when she was a child. It was a heartwarming story which I love it so much💙

Forest of Shadows (Pg. 18)

2. "A Midsummer’s Song and Dance" in All Is Found: A Frozen Anthology (Pg. 135)

3. Polar Nights: Cast Into Darkness (Pg. 24)

4. Anna & Elsa #6: The Arendelle Cup (Pg. 16)

5. The same story "The Arendelle Cup" is in comic Disney Frozen Adventures: Snowy Stories (Pg. 177)

6. "Journey to Chatho" in comic Disney Frozen Adventures: Snowy Stories (Pg. 198) - This was the story I was mentioned earlier, highly recommended!

7. "Chatho’s Wonders" in comic Disney Frozen Adventures: Snowy Stories (Pg. 190)

8. "The Zarian Seeds" in comic Disney Frozen Adventures: Snowy Stories (Pg. 218)

9. "The Midwinter Ride" in comic Disney Frozen Adventures: Snowy Stories (Pg. 123)

10. "Across the Sea" in 5-Minutes Stories (Frozen 2 version) (Pg. 130)

11. The same story "Across the Sea" is in Frozen Storybook Collection: Advent Calendar 2023 (#12, Pg. 11 & 12)

Happy siblings day!

The love between Elsa and Anna is ultimately what makes Frozen so special to me. It is one of the only Disney movies that focuses primarily on a bond between sisters, which is part of the reason it’s so special. My younger sister and I have always been best friends, so I’ve always seen us in Elsa and Anna. When Frozen first came out in 2013, we were 8 and 5, the same ages as Elsa and Anna were in the prologue. I could totally see us at that age playing in a very similar way to how Elsa and Anna did together. When we were younger, we played games where we pretended to be Elsa and Anna and reenacted scenes from the movie or made up our own. More recently, we’ve dressed up as Elsa and Anna to see the Frozen musical together.

Frozen has always been something special I could share with my sister. From the time we were little kids until now, we’ve both loved everything about the movie, but especially the story it tells about Elsa and Anna’s love for each other.

Happy Siblings Day to everyone... 💕

I'd also like to take this opportunity to introduce an amazing Frozen fanzine project called 'Water Has Memory: A Frozen Decade.' You can participate in the project by submitting your creativity, including art, photography, short fiction, non-fiction, and poetry for a specific year.

If you're interested, you can find more details on their Tumblr @frozen10fanzine . Be sure to act fast, as the deadline is approaching soon!

In this masterpiece of a scene, so much happens in a split second. Anna freezes completely, thus preventing Hans from doing any harm with his sword to her. We all know this, it was perfect timing that her turning to ice happened just before his sword came down on her. The sword shatters and a magical blast incapacitates Hans, taking out the antagonist and the weapon. Can you imagine if Hans was not taken out? He would have gone on to kill Elsa with the stump of his sword and fabricated some explanation about Anna to the council of dignitaries.

But in the midst of all that, I'd like to point out something easily missed. Go back to the start when Anna ran. Did you realize that Anna did not know that she would freeze right at that moment? Think about it for a second. That's right, Anna had no way of knowing. She saw Elsa in danger, and she ran madly to her defense. She loved Elsa so much that she would take a blade for her, even if she would bleed, lose a limb, or even die. For Elsa.

Anna also gave up the life saving kiss from Kristoff, her one chance at unfreezing (from her perspective) . She had no way of knowing that she would unfreeze later on.

Tl;dr Anna's love for Elsa is boundless.

Frozen Through the Years

Yearly Spotlight: 2023

Written by @toriofthetrees

This year marked...

Frozen’s 10th Anniversary

It was wild.

Starting off with a bang, in February Disney CEO Bob Iger announced that Frozen III was in development, later confirmed by Josh Gad. Idina Menzel and Jen Lee confirmed it in June, with Jen Lee going on to say that she would not be directing this installment of the franchise. However, she confirmed that she knew the person who was, she loved their story, and she trusted them completely.

Her enthusiasm did not go unnoticed.

On top of the 10th Anniversary for Frozen (November 27) this year also marked the 100th Anniversary for Disney Studios as a whole (October 16). To commemorate both, much of the activity peaked towards the last three month of the year.

The hashtag #Frozen10 was created to celebrate the anniversary.

On October 11, the Forces of Nature podcast was released over several installments. It was met with mixed reviews; some enjoyed it, some were more critical of it, and most agreed that while it was fun, it did not have the chops to be a major installment of the Frozen franchise.

On October 16, Disney released a short film called Once Upon a Studio to commemorate their centennial celebration. It aired on ABC and showed the hustle and bustle of Disney Studios as everyone (all of our favorite characters) prepared for the big celebration! Elsa, Anna, Kristoff (and technically Hans) were among the many classic Disney characters that appeared!

Two novels were released this year. The first book was the first installment in the Disney Legends trilogy entitled Fixer Upper, written by Jen Calonita. It tells the story of Kristoff’s childhood and life before he met Anna in Frozen. The second novel, an anthology of short stories, was created specifically to celebrate #Frozen10. It is called All is Found, and it brought together 10 authors to write 10 short stories to celebrate the anniversary. It was edited by Heather Knowles and Mari Mancusi, veterans in non-film Frozen lore.

November is the month things started reallly picking up. The merchandising train at Disney rolled out a lot of Frozen merch, including limited edition dolls of the sisters specifically for the 10th anniversary. On November 16, Bob Iger announced a fourth installment of the franchise, with multiple voice actors and creators tied to the project confirming it later that same day. This coincided with the Grand Opening ceremony of the World of Frozen at Disneyland Hongkong. Jen Lee joined in this celebration, with the gates to the park opening four days later.

She informed the world on November 22 that Frozen III and Frozen IV were one story across two installments.

The anniversary itself was on November 27. Disney released a press release on their official website commemorating all that had happened in Frozen history (kind of like what we are doing with these blog posts). And, of course, the merchandising train spun out once again to give us all new merch specifically for the #Frozen10 celebration.

Towards the end of the month, the Frozen song playlist was added to Spotify and Season 5 of Disney Speedstorm was released with Frozen characters.

The year ended with exciting activity from the fandom! The Youtuber GeekCritique worked closely with the Arendelle Archives to create a video detailing the history of Arendelle. The video was released on December 23 and managed to make headlines! The other major project was a fanzine celebrating #Frozen10. Inspired by All is Found, several fans came together to create Water Has Memory: A Frozen Decade. Within the zine are the fandom's Frozen memories, presented in the form of Elsa & Anna accessing them together through Ahtohallan.

Needless to say, this year was a major leap forward for all things Frozen. It gave so much to look forward to, and it was a sizable way to commemorate the 10th Anniversary of this beloved story.

"Believe in yourself. Believe in the ice... " ❄

Made a simple edits for one of my favourite Frozen novel "Lost Legends: The Fixer Upper" by Jen Calonita...💙

This novel is mainly about Kristoff and Sven, about how's their life when they were in orphanage, in valley of the living rocks, in human school and finally qualified to join the ice harvester team. It's actually more focus on 12-years-old Kristoff, how he deal with all these difficulties he faced especially with his classmate Gustav. It's a great novel, if you're interested in Kristoff backstory, I would recommend read it 😄 And honestly I'm surprised Kristoff and Oaken knew each other since long time ago before Frozen 1 😂

About the edit concept, technically I was editing a Kristoff and Sven poster but nothing else 😂 Also I added the ice harvester as the background, and also made a book cover of "The Ice Harvester's Guide to Ice" 😄 Sadly there's no 12-years-old Kristoff screencaps so I only added the young Kristoff and adult Kristoff into it 😄

Frozen Through the Years

Yearly Spotlight: 2022

Written by @secretsofthestorymakers

In 2022, some further expansion of the Frozen franchise came through other Disney properties.

Frozen characters were included in the story of Disney Mirrorverse, an alternate universe/crossover role playing game featuring many Disney and Pixar characters. In July, the Disney Wish cruise ship sailed for the first time, featuring Arendelle: A Frozen Dining Adventure. This immersive character dining experience brings guests into the world of Frozen with a royal dinner to celebrate Anna and Kristoff’s engagement.

In books, 2022 brought new editions of both La Bibliothéque Rose series and the Histoires d’Arendelle books, two series of fairly short stories written in French. In July, Polar Nights - a chapter book set after Frozen II - was released. It explores the story of one particular myth in Arendelle and what happens when the past comes back to haunt Elsa and Anna.

As it had been several years since the release of Frozen II, and as the 10th anniversary of the original film was approaching, fans wondered what could be next for the franchise.
