5. Do you respond to comments?
i am Physically Incapable of Shutting Up About My Creations
6. What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
hm well for completed ones id have to say 'i'm supposed to take care of you', but including planned wips i dont know whether 'all these shadows' or 'wavelength' has more angst. theres also an ndrv3 fic in the works thats pretty downer
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
i think Moonlight is pretty hopeful!
8. Do you get hate on fics?
nah, usually me and my writing keep to ourselves
10. Do you write crossovers?
y'know i havent really dabbled much in crossovers!
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
nnooooot as far as im aware
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
nope! ive been meaning to translate some of them into spanish tho
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
i tried a couple of times but it fell apart pretty quickly. dont think ill be trying again
14. What’s your all-time favorite ship?
iiiii do not have one because i really dont care that much about ships tbh. at least theres nothing that immediately comes to mind
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you will?
hmmm well. little red carp was a fun fic to write but i dont see myself getting interested in it again
16. What are your writing strengths?
people tell me im very good at character voices and personality! which i appreciate! im also good at visualizing my stories and writing action scenes!
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
planning! im always getting tripped up by how to get from point a to point b and i always get stuck with the details! its the worst!
but i cant exactly pants a story either bc im always thinking "oh what if i take the story THIS direction" and then i end up having to go back and rewrite a lot of sections
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language?
writing in spanish is veeery weird compared to writing in english. i cant get the grammar to cooperate with me as much, and it always makes me feel like a kindergartner trying to use words they just learned to cobble together their first story
i usually try not to bother translating for languages i don't know. or do some research first. mostly i rely on either not giving context or just writing what theyre really saying "in italics like this"
19. First fandom you wrote for?
uhhh. balto i think. as in the 1995 animated film balto. i was obsessed with that film
20. Favorite fic you’ve ever written?
i think wavelength! just because of how much fun i am having thinking of the dynamics and Plot Things that are going to happen. a lot of it is a mishmash of what-ifs? and things i thought were going to happen in stranger things itself but didnt
i tag @mysterygreentea @sakurablossomcreamlatte @alzheimersparrotroute and anyone else interested in doing this
