howel + trick or treat?

Howel is here!

Trick or Treat: Tell me about the greatest prank you've ever pulled?

I’m not really much of a prank person. I worry too much about being mean. D: Actually I’m not sure I’ve ever pulled a prank in my life, beyond things like hiding somewhere to scare my little sister or something like that. Or I think we toilet papered another cabin one time at camp? But then they got us back so it evened out.

Oh my, ummm either some red wine I had a few years back that was extremely awful or some mochi a friend gave me, I like mochi now but idk what it was about what she gave me idk i just wasn’t a fan

[auroargraves]

was reading what the previous anon said, i entirely agree! you've explored so much in your writing, that takes an imagination, creativity and talent to pull together. you did that, AND you continue to do that, you're forever amazing! i, for one, am i fan. i admire your writing, i know many do as well. you've brought so much joy to this fandom.

jsyk, someone asked me to try writing speirton, and i’m gonna do it and i will bomb your message box w/ my anxiety about characters being OOC.

also,

thank you. so much bc you’ve always been a great supporting system whenever i doubt myself and it’s nice to you that you’re a fan even though i still feel ???????? most of the time when ppl tell me they like my writing. so thank you so so much, your words mean a lot to me ♥♥ ♥

3, 26, 36 and 40!

3. Crush?

i’m deep in denial!!!

26. Best thing that has ever happened to you?

deciding to say fuck it and study in the UK, even if I could barely afford it. best decision i’ve ever made!

36. Any bad habits?

i’m so messy, like i’m completely incapable of keeping any living space clean for more than a day. i try. so, so hard. also sometimes i do spontaneously reckless shit, which is sometimes fun but mostly just means i do a lot of dumb stuff.

40. Do you believe in love?

heck yeah! i love love.

[apricottes]

for the aesthetic prompts if you're still down: lipton and/or speirs modern farm? is that a thing??

Listen. There is going to be so. much. plaid. I am so here for lumberjack!Speirs and lumberjack/Lipton I already have too many pics I wanna use, so I’m gonna do them an aesthetic each rather than condense them into the one.

9,12 and 15 (hopefully i'm quick enough this time)

Yay, this time you’re good! xD

9. Do you plan a story from beginning to end before writing it, or do you just haphazardly start writing one and add up from there, hoping the plot goes somewhere good? If the latter, do you tend to get stuck often?

It’s usually the latter, and I DO get stuck often, haha. Well, sort of. It’s easier for me to just start writing and see where it goes with fanfic, but when I’m writing original stuff, I find myself ending up in the weeds over and over again, unfortunately. I’ve been trying to make use of outlines more recently, but I’m having limited success. I usually don’t have the patience to make more than a few vague bullet points, so I either end up getting lost anyway, or I end up so far off the outline that the outline didn’t even matter. Basically, I’m a mess, lol.

12. On the contrary; What parts of writing a story do you hate?

The part in the middle where I’m just trying to move the plot forward, when I’m between scenes that I really wanted to write and I know where I want to go but I start to lose the will to do all the work I need to do to get there. It’s basically a necessary part of any longfic, but I have a really difficult time overcoming it. I usually start a fic with two or three scenes in my head that I’m really stoked about, but then I have to fill in the rest too, and it’s so haaarrddd. 

And 15 is here!
