21 and 23 for the end of year asks!

I don't know which one this was for so I'll answer them both!

End of year book ask

21: Did you participate in or watch any booklr, booktube, or book twitter drama?

Honestly this is the first time I'm hearing any of these terms so I'm pretty sure the answer is no xD

23: What’s the fastest time it took you to read a book?

Uhh i mean it depends on how long the book is I guess, but I read quite quickly in general, I suppose about half an hour in a bookstore to finish a not so thin one might be a record? Not sure tho

End of year fic ask

21: most memorable comment/review

Oh gosh most memorable? Do I even remember any at all with my goldfish brain... Oh! Wait! I do, tho they might not be quite what you'd expect xD my actual fav comments are different ones that i might add here as well (I have them saved under 'favourites' in my email to look at when I need some good vibes), but these are the ones I actually remembered now bc there's a story there (and of course I can't just pick one):

- ok for the first one not so much a story but just... what a comment xD from someone I don't think i ever interacted with before? Idk I just had that one sitting in my inbox for ages just looking at it every time lmao

- ok kind of self explanatory, I gifted them a fic after they dragged me into the fandom via tumblr osmosis, I haven't watched an episode of Holby City in my life and I think before I followed @pers-books I didn't see any Berena content on tumblr at all! So thx, unironically, for the new obsession xD

- I was talking on discord about how I had a perfect 1mil wordcount (like, exactly that, many zeroes) on ao3 overall, sent a screenshot and browneyedgenius noticed i was just 1 comment away from a perfect 2k commentcount as well, and for the Pretty Numbers' sake @browneyedgenius left a comment :D

Oh, and then also memorable is the fact that @startrekgeorgiouery and @onaperduamedee are definitely record holders for longest comments ever, thanks guys <3<3<3

(Can't add my other favs here after all bc pic limit Oupsie, maybe in a reblog! I do kinda wanna say thx again to everyone)

23: fics you wanted to write but didn’t

Oh, so many! Most of them shall be buried in drafts forever, but there is one Mirandy longfic that might still see the light of day, am slowly working on it with @les-begay-together !

Thanks so much for the ask! ♡

Personal post- do not reblog

19. Stephen King once said that his muse is a man who lives in the basement. Do you have a muse?

an ask!!! yay!!!!!!

hi @justanalto! hope you’re well.

I guess my muse comes in a lot of forms. the people around me and their lives comes to mind first, though. I pull from life experience a lot, and not just my own. I guess it’s in the hope of keeping it realistic and all.

thanks for asking!

May’s Golden Dragon is an AMAZING fic that has been a fandom staple for years and I just hope independentalto knows how special she is 💕💕💕

for the get to know the author questions: 10 & 15?

10) write in silence or with background noise? with people or alone?

Music is the best, and different stories need different music. Sometimes I write while watching the show my fic is based on, but it’s very specific episodes, or I’ll watch pieces of it. I find people being around all right if they’re not talking to me. If they’re talking to me (or Felix, Felix is very distracting) then it doesn’t work.

Ideally would be alone with music, then alone in a coffee shop or library or something.

15) why did you start writing?

I like emotions and I love writing about them, often very slowly and in a nondescript void because I am really lax on descriptions. I’m usually motivated by dark-haired women who need a happier ending, or some comfort for the hurt they went through in canon. 

I also love a weird AU multichapter pregnancy fic, which is probably my classic thing to write.
