Welcome back, everyone! Though it was put on pause in January, the Jon’s Creator Showcase (#TheJCS) is officially back in action for February. A personal favorite community event of myself and many others, this event is all about celebrating each other’s work!

For those who are new, or who just have not participated in a while, Jon’s Creator Showcase is an event usually hosted by the many after which it is named, Jon Spencer, or members of his community. However, you do not have to be a member in order to participate. It simply involves taking a creative project you worked on in the previous month and submitting it. This can be anything from a blog post to a YouTube video or even art you’ve drawn. At the end of the month, all of the submissions get featured in one giant post made by yours truly.

In order to submit, all one has to do is tweet out the submission or reply with it to the tweet below and use the hashtag #TheJCS. Those who do not have Twitter are more than welcome to submit via email to theaniwriter@gmail.com

It's back! I'll be hosting #TheJCS for the month of February. Please share your articles/blog posts/videos/other creative endeavors from the previous month, and tag 3 others as well. Please use the hashtag. I'll start us off: @MechAnimeReview @InfiniteZenith @Irina_the_Great

Submissions will be open for the entire month of February. This is to ensure that everyone gets a chance to submit and showcase their creative works. This means that the final post will probably be posted sometime at the beginning of March.

Any questions can be directed to me via the Twitter page linked above or the email mentioned previously. If you are not a member of the Jon Spencer discord and would like to join, please use this link. We talk anime, manga, video games, and plenty of other stuff.

Thank you to everyone in advance, as I look forward to seeing everyone’s work from January!

Welcome, weebs, to Animated Observations

So yeah, I was pretty quiet for most of April, I apologize to everyone that was expecting stuff from me. School has been kind of a pain for me mentally the last couple weeks. But, with that soon being out of the way, Its time to announce that I will be hosting #TheJCS for the Month of May 2021!

Since this is my first time hosting the event, there are probably quite a few people reading who are unfamiliar. The Jon Creator Showcase, or #TheJCS, is a event held once a month where creators of all kinds and sizes are invited to submit things they have worked on in the previous month. This can be blog posts, videos, podcast, or whatever else you feel like submitting. While I do mainly cover anime and gaming here, these posts can be about basically whatever, so feel free to share what you care about the most. Hence, since this month is May, I’ll be asking for your creative endeavors from the month of April. The host of last month’s #TheJCS was Crimson of A Nerdy Fujo Cries, so please give their post a look as well.

As for submissions, The primary and preferred method is going to be Twitter. I will link the original tweet below, when submitting please use #TheJCS and tag me @JScheibelein. Additionally, when you submit this way, be sure to tag three other creators so that we can keep the chain going and get as many people as possible in on the action, and have them do the same. This will simplify the process on my end and guarantee that I see all of the submissions. If, however, you do not have a Twitter and would still like to participate, please email me using the Animated Observations email: theaniwriter@gmail.com.

This will serve as the official May 2021 Jon's Creator Showcase #TheJCS submission post. I am hereby requesting your creative endeavors from April. Don't forget to tag 3 others when you submit. To start off, I'll be tagging: @JS_Reviews @K_at_the_movies @MechAnimeReview

I will be taking submissions all the way until the end of May 30th so that everyone has time to figure out what they would like to submit. I was originally going to keep submissions to just one per person. However, I noticed Crimson modified hers to include extra space for posts about “Jujutsu Kaisen.” To celebrate my first time hosting, and because I’m a shill for my favorite anime, I’ll allow two submissions provided that one of them focuses primarily on “March Comes in Like a Lion.”

For any other questions you might have, feel free to reach out to either me or Jon Spencer via social media or email. With that being said, I cannot wait to see all of your wonderful submissions!
