20 questions for fic writers!
I wasn’t tagged *sad face* but decided to do this anyway. Even if no one reads, I’ll have a record.
Here are mine! (under the cut)
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
I have 111 works right now. (mostly fics and some poorly done art)
2. What’s your total AO3 word count?
768,637
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Harry Potter!! Mostly Drarry and a couple Snape/Hermione
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
We Found Love Right Where We Are (mpreg)
The One Where Draco Loses his Mind and Gains a Boyfriend
There's No Espresso in Azkaban
Into My Heart
Regardless of desire, life hands you who you are
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not? I really try to, but especially when it's a fest fic I feel like I keep saying the same things over and over. Sometimes I try to go back – but truly I suck at responding.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? There are two: First: All you left me (are the whispers in the wind) and also Then the Tears Fall Both are MCD…so yeah
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Except for those two I'm all about the happy ending. I guess the endings I like the best are Every Hour Has Led to This and The White Dragon
8. Do you get hate on fics?
Only once. I took some real shit on a fic I wrote over 10 years ago.
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
Personally, I think I'm an abysmal smut writer. And it's only if a fic if I feel it works. Outside of a few things, I generally don't add smut for the sake of the rating.
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
Nope
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not to my knowledge
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
There's No Espresso in Azkaban into Korean - HERE and into German HERE
The Toad's Hollow School into
German: HERE and into Spanish: HERE
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Yes – a few times. I co-wrote with @timothysboxers, and a little ficlet with @lettersbyelise and @maesterchilland. I've also done one with oldenuf2nb. I'm always up for a collab.
14. What’s your all-time favourite ship?
Drarry – hands down. Once I found the pairing there was no turning back.
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
A couple. One I'm working on (sort of) and the other continues to lie dormant from 2012. If I do ever pick it up again, I'll have to really almost start over. I think my style has changed since then.
16. What are your writing strengths?
I think I do okay at dialogue and plot. But honestly I'm a much better continuity beta (for everyone but myself)
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
Being overly detailed. I must keep telling myself every minute of every day does not have to be accounted for. It's my nit-picky nature that often tires me out and why things go unfinished.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
I don't do it much. Lord knows I have enough trouble with English. On one hand it frustrates me, since I don't know what it says and if they add the translation – it distracts me. On the other hand, it's generally not enough for me to hit the back button.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
Harry Potter. First and only!
20. Favourite fic you’ve written?
Really…I can't pick one. The two I mentioned above for their endings come to mind. Is it cocky to say if I posted it – I actually liked it? But the one I'm most proud of was my Big Bang fic - Every Hour has Led to This.
No tags, but feel free to do it if you're of a mind.
