from meta ask meme: 10, 11 & 15!!

10. How would you describe your writing process?

lengthy planning and fast writing! I usually sit on idea for minimum six months to let it develop and work out as many kinks as possible, then I plan it out in a google doc, and then I wait for the next batch of free time (usually ft. a Camp NaNoWriMo) and speedwrite it in two months or so. the editing is....we don’t talk about the editing

11. What do you envy in other writers?

speedy editing/enjoyment of editing/ability to rip up absolutely massive chunks and totally rewrite them! @radley-writes plz take me on as your padawan I’m begging

15. Which is harder: titles or summaries (or tags)?

T I T L E S

So what are the differences and similarities of your wips: ashes to ashes and milo's story?

The main difference is that Ashes to Ashes is a fantasy fiction while Milo’s story is a contemporary one. So, a lot of differences ^^”

About the similarities: both have a naive main character, a non-white love interest, a best friend who’s considered like a family member, friends to lovers, found family, angst with a happy ending, and lots of secrets!

I saw this question on here and I thought this would be a good one to ask...what is the color palette of your story? some scenes that would translate well to film?

thank you! the color palette i associate with my story is pastel pink, white and bronze with the tiniest hint of dark red.

i think that more scenes in my story would translate better to animated medium than film - specifically a lot of the fight scenes, which hinge on a more surreal kind of magic i guess?

Please answer as one of your favorite OCs, what is your favorite season and why?

(Thank you so much for the ask!! I’m answering as Lady Harriet from Powerless.)

Hello! It’s very nice to meet you. I’d say my favorite season is probably summer, because then I get a break from most of my studies for traveling season. The royal family, my mother, Feodora, and I usually go on a trip to another country Offworld, and sometimes even the Continent! It’s very fun and relaxing, and I get to spend even more time learning about how politics and diplomatic matters work—it really interests me.

Please answer as one of your favorite OCs, where is your favorite spot/place to be?

Hello! Thank you very much for asking. My favorite place, huh? Capicious question ... Well, in spite of wherever I have my violin, I think a good covered and comfortable place where I can enjoy the light rain is the best. - Rory Rose
