This got long, so putting it under a read more:
1, How many works do you have on ao3?
Currently have 285.
2, What's your Ao3 word count?
Roughly about 380k (thought since my writing muses are back, I'm hoping to bump this number up a lot this year!! fingers crossed it happens, but more importantly I don't lose the muses!)
3, What fandoms do you write for?
I've written for Marvel, Star Wars, DC Arrowverse and a few others. Though this year I'm hoping to add Top Gun, more Star Wars, more Marvel and maybe a few new others.
4, What are your top five fics by kudos?
If You Want Love (Obikin, Star Wars.)
Uncovering the Meaning (Coldflash, Arrowverse.)
Coming Clean (Coldflashwave, Arrowverse.)
Confusion for The Heart, Table One (Stuckony, MC.U)
Snuggles and Cuddles (Coldflashwave, Arrowverse.)
5, Do you respond to comments?
Yes! Though if the comment is just demanding for an update or for more, then I no longer do.
6, What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
I don't know?? I don't write angsty endings. I'm a happy ending or hopeful ending kinda gal.
7, What's the fic your write with the happiest ending?
lol pretty much all of them. It's the only kind of ending I write.
8, Do you get hate on fics?
I have in the past. But if it's a comment, I usually immediately delete it because I don't need that in my life. I haven't really gotten either other kind of hate for the fic's I write. Or if I have, I honestly just don't remember it. It's not something I try to dwell on anymore.
9, Do you write smut? What kind?
I have! Though not in a while lol but hoping this year I get back into the swing of it.
10, Do you write cross-overs?
Not really. Generally I'll write an AU and mash up the ship I'm writing(or making a board) for into the universe that sparked the idea.
11, Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not to my knowledge!
12, Have you ever had a fic translated?
I have! It was an absolute delight to get asked to do so!
13, Have you ever cowritten a fic before?
I have not! I've talked about it in the past with old friends but nothing ever came of it.
14, What's your all time favourite ship?
This is literally the hardest question ever lmao like, honestly once I decide a ship is "the ship" for the fandom I've fallen into, I love it forever. so like, my fave ship is a constantly routing list lol but currently right now it's: obikin, stony, coldflash, hangster, sterek, superbat.
When a ship sinks it's claws into like these have, they never really go away and the love for it never truly dies.
15, What's your WIP you like to finish, but doubt you ever will?
Ideally all of them! lol but truly, I'd really love to finish the ones I've already posted on Ao3, because they haunt me and I want to be rid of those ghosts.
16, What are your writing strength?
I don't know? Like, there are things about my writing I love but I don't know what I would consider my strength. Maybe dialogue? Making you feel emotions? How do people answer this!!
17, What are your writing weaknesses?
All of them??? lol I really don't know. I don't tend to write long fic's any more, like, my longest put on Ao3 is like around 16k and everything else is below that. So I genuinely don't know what I'm strongest at or weakest at because what I usually do is get a little blurb of a scene in my head, write it out and post it. Like it amazes me how I do any world building, character building, anything building in the 500 to 2k little moments I do write and post. (Though this year I am hoping to bang out a few long fic's, so maybe I'll find out what I'm strong at and what I'm weak at then!)
18, Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
If I do, I do it in like italics or bold, something like that because I can no longer trust translator sites I find (if someone has a reputable one they can share?!!!?!!!?! let me know!!) but I got politely corrected a few too many times and realized since I don't speak another language, I cannot trust what I find.
So for me, I found it to just be like, 'he says this in his native tongue', because that way I'm not butchering something that means a lot to a group of people and nor am I making be guess what I'm trying to say. It's just a personal preference for myself!!!
More power to the people who do it differently!
19, First fandom you wrote for?
Posted for Ao3 was The Flash, for fanfic.net I think it was for NCIS??? before that I don't know???? Babygirl (gender neutral) THAT WAS MORE THAN 20 YEARS AGO for me!!! I have trouble remember last month lol
20, Favourite fic you've ever written?
Think Before You Act, Except Just This Once (Stony, MCU). It's just so short and funny and I loved writing it.
