20 Questions for Fic Writers
Thank you, @cheeeryos for the tag. 💕
How many works do you have on ao3?
71+
What's your total ao3 word count?
1,130,187
What fandoms do you write for?
The Raven Cycle/The Dreamer Trilogy. I have hoped another will come along that will entice me enough to write, but, alas, nothing else has yet.
Top five fics by kudos:
Boxes on the Lawn
Open Door
𝛑
What It All Could Be
Going Back to These Origins
(I find it interestingly hilarious that 3/5 have titles from Damien Rice songs.)
Do you respond to comments?
I do my best to, yes.
What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Even when I get angsty, I still try to have a hopeful ending (at least in my opinion). However, the ending of Somnium is probably the most melancholic of my (self-identified) hopeful endings.
What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
This is tough because I always try to go for the HEA, so I'll say the most satisfying and hardest won HEA is probably Boxes on the Lawn.
Do you get hate on fics?
Not usually, but it has happened.
Do you write smut?
I do.
Craziest crossover:
I've yet to write a crossover, and I'll never say never, but I don't see any crossovers in my future. Fusions, though… I'm all about fusions.
Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not to my knowledge.
Have you ever had a fic translated?
Not to my knowledge.
Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Not yet, no.
All time favorite ship?
I think it's obvious. 😌 Pynch.
What's a wip you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
In all honesty, probably The Rearview.
What are your writing strengths?
I think I keep my writing interesting. I intentionally try to vary my sentences so they're not all "Adam did X. Ronan did Y," change up length, and have gotten better at not using filter or filler words. Basically, I try to mirror what I like reading in my writing, and do my best to not bore a reader. I also think I'm pretty funny. Or I at least make myself laugh a lot upon rereading my own fics.
What are your writing weaknesses?
I have a tendency to rush endings. I get them to the happily ever after and call it a day. There's no savoring it or relishing in it. Letting them breathe a little and finally have some peace on page. It's climax, then boom, the end. I'm trying to get better at this. I also think I never include enough dialogue. I don't think I'm as bad at dialogue as I once was, but reading back through my fics, there's never a significant amount of talking going on.
Thoughts on dialogue in another language?
I mean, for assholes who use Latin as their love language, I think it's fine. It has its place.
First fandom you wrote in?
First first was Mary Sue self-insert Flyers RPF. The one that grew legs and ran was Pierre and David from Simple Plan.
Favorite fic you've written?
*** **** because of the way I wrote Pynch's relationship. Uncensored, Vital Pieces, because cannibalism because I really like my writing in it and some of the scene choices I made. Ask me next week and this will change.
Tagging @emmerrr and @werewolffeelings if either of you are interested. 🥰
