Most Popular One-Shot: Easing Tension (Pure SMUT! Garrus X FemShep )
Most Popular Multi-Chapter Story: Awakening (My experimental sort of ship between Archon and my FemRyder) With all the hate Andromeda has, I can’t believe this one had the most hits LOL
Favorite Story You Wrote: It has changed over the years. It started off my Andromeda Series. My first ME series. Now, I’m partial to Descencion only because of an OC I created that I got attached to and had to change some things in Andromeda to reflect that. I like to make my series somehow connect.
Story You Were Nervous to Post: “Beer Talk” My first Fast and Furious story. I wrote it as a present to my hubby who knows nothing of fanfic or ME really. He’s into those movies. I pushed myself to engage in the characters and it constantly has hits and I don’t know why LOL
How You Choose Your Titles: Lately, it has been song titles by Comaduster. I get themes from their lyrics and then I use them to keep me focused.
Complete: Too many. If you count one-shots and series (not chapters) then about: 45. If you are asking for chapters too, then way above 300 LOL
Incomplete: 5 (I really need to go back and finish the one-shots) Mixture of fandoms at one time doesn’t set right with me.
Do You Outline? Yes. For ME, I go through the timeline of the game (s) and think of particular missions or areas I want to concentrate on. I create a chart. Then I go down and select them for a brief outline of what I want to do for each chapter. The dialogue is all in my head and sometimes I DO act out the dialogue if I’m home alone to get the feelings in them.
Coming Soon/Not Yet Started: 2 ME Ones: One will focus on a FemShep (i forgot her name sadly in my game right now XD). She will be Kaidan’s lover then Thane’s then Kaidan’s. Will focus on a Reaper Cult in the Citadel post ME2. Working Title will be called Chasms. The other is an Andromeda timeline on a new Fem Ryder who will be LI with Peebee. Unclear direction or title (and yes I forgot her name too) LOL
Do You Accept Prompts? Rarely, I do the Christmas exchange every year though. Sometimes if I have nothing else going on, I will accept requests.
Most Excited to Write: Right now, it will be “Walls” I have a strong connection to my post completed series, “Solace.” This is the prequel to it.
