Do you know how we can grab chickwriter's tumblr only ficlets now that her page has been deleted?

I think unless you know how to browse deleted files after hacking into tumblr’s servers, i’m afraid they are gone like ethereal wisps of smoke.  :(

20 – Do you ever get bunnied from other people’s stories or art in the same fandom?

By bunnied, I’m guessing this means something like inspiration? I think I do sometimes, but it’s at a more basic level, so I don’t really notice it since I try to stay away from similar storylines that I’ve read from other authors. :)

5 –If you have ever had a character try to push their way into a fic, whether your “muse” or not, what did you do about it?

~~ I usually just go with it! Very rarely do I start writing a fic with a super strict idea of what’s going to happen. I like to write pretty freely and let things change as I go along! thanks for asking :)

Branson, Sybbie, George

These are some serious questions, good lord.

Branson: How have you changed in the past five years?

I have changed more in the past five years than probably any other time in my life.  Five years ago, I was an angry, sad, frustrated person.  I doubted pretty much everything about myself and my work.  I was someone who was constantly apologizing for her presence in the world.  I wouldn’t say I’m ashamed of that person because I wouldn’t be who I am now without her.  After Romeo and Juliet closed my mom looked at me and said: “You’ve become so poised.  When did that happen?”  I’m not just happier now, I’m more comfortable in my own skin.  Teaching gave me a whole other level of confidence I didn’t know I had.  I still have doubts. I’m just better at silencing them now because I know they’re unfounded.  Also, my smile reaches my eyes now.  I can’t ask for more than that.

Sybbie: What was your favorite stuffed toy growing up? Do you still have it?

I have a beautiful stuffed bear that I got when I was about 8 or 9 that I definitely still have.  My mom kept the vast majority of my toys and the ones that I don’t have with me have been very lovingly packed away for any future grandchildren.  And the books were never packed away.

George: Do you feel like your family has too many expectations of you?

This comes with the territory when you have immigrant parents.  And I don’t blame them.  They gave up everything to come to this country, so of course they expect that my brother and I not fuck up the considerable opportunities we have been given.  I would say they have higher expectations for me than they do for my older brother (which is an interesting reversal considering our birth order).  My parents don’t just want to see me living a stable life; they want me to be exceptional.  Sometimes, it’s all a lot to live up to.

 I couldn’t decide on one Hamilton t shirt so I got...

I got #yayhamlet and the burr one you’re wearing. AWESOME. WOW. :D

Great minds think alike, huh?  I just love their logo so freaking much but then I saw the shirt with the names and I couldn’t choose. The merchandise is fucking awesome.  NOW I JUST NEED THE SOUNDTRACK

don't undersell!

First step is to stop being so damn intimidated by some of these programs (coughYalecough). Some of my peers are there already. I fucking belong there.

I love this anon.

Nice, encouraging, challenging anons are the fucking best.

chickwriter answered your question “Okay, tumblr friends who have seen my work/worked with me: How would...”

at a distance - details matter to you and you know how to say yes and when to say no.

As always, very true.

13 and 20

13. Raisin, Chocolate, or Regular Challah

Really, all challah is good by me, but there is nothing that beats a classic challah.  That being said, I have a recipe for a fig, olive oil, and sea salt challah that I’m DYING to try.

20. Ilana Glazer or Abbi Jacobson

This question. This fucking question. I mean, it’s Ilana Glazer. But then every time I say that I think of the greatness of Abbi dancing naked to Lady Gaga or carrying Ilana out of a restaurant or the entire episode when she tripped balls on a vicodin/weed cocktail. The margin is razor thin. Ilana only wins because I think she’s possibly the greatest physical comedian we’ve seen since Belushi.
