20 Questions for Writers
I was told by my friend, @the-broken-quill, to do this meme. So here it is. There's a lot to get through so let's get going. And I'll stick it under a cut so people can skip past if they want.
But first, have an aesthetic Donnie gif. Courtesy of me.
How many works do you have on AO3?
As of today, I have 220. Phew.
2. What's your total AO3 word count?
Oh, God, I'm scared to look... 1,515,823 words. Yikes. I wonder how many of those are 'cock'.
3. What fandoms do your write for?
Hmm... Kind of anything and everything. If you look on my fandom list, there are 187. But, at the moment, I'm mainly writing for the Sandman, Indiana Jones and other fandoms that involve Boyd Holbrook.
4. What're your top 5 fics by kudos?
Those would be:
'Keeping Up with the Madrigals' ✑ 1,606.
'Dead by Moonlight' ✑ 408.
'Various Spiderman One-Shots' ✑ 358.
'Finish Him!!' ✑ 321.
'Mirror, Mirror' ✑ 314.
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
I try to but sometimes if they're just like 'nice', there's only so many times you can respond to it. 😅😅 I try my best to though. Had a couple of people wanting to collab/commission me and on both counts they've been very weird and predatory (not you, ZEBS) so like stay safe out there, guys.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
I'm a purveyor of smut, see, not angst but...I do like a twist ending. 'Start Fresh. Begin Again.' has angst all the way throughout but a more positive ending?
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
I try to end on a high-note so most smut fics have happy endings. Maybe 'Second Chances'? It's not a smut fic, it's just all about recovery and a little bit of falling for one another. It's very, very fluffy because Pinky deserves it.
8. Do you get hate on fics?
Sometimes. I've had to leave a couple fanbases because of this. *Cough, cough* Walten Files.
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
Oomph. Pick your poison, bud. We got vanilla stuff, oral, anal, breeding kink, toy stuff, public stuff, lactation, face-fucking, magic stuff, anatomically impossible stuff... The list literally goes on forever.
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
Not really a big crossover person because I feel like that would require a lot of world building but ZEBS and I have done a Mortal Kombat/Evil Dead crossover RP.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not that I know of? Why would you?
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
I believe so but I can't remember which one...
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Yepski! My friend, ZEBS, and I have written quite a bit together. I've also done a little bit with an old friend, Brana, but the bulk of it is me and ZEBS.
14. What’s your all time favourite ship?
They're all OCs but Corinthian/Alistair, Klaber/Wolf and Cap/Theo. I've put so much time into developing them. I love them so much.
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
There are waaaay too many WIPs that get started and then get left behind. Go through my works and drink every time you see a work where I was too optimistic with the chapter count. You will die.
16. What are your writing strengths?
Smut, of course. Specifically, dirty talk?
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
World-building and scene-setting. I'm really impatient and enjoy getting right down to business.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
Obviously, I'm in favour. Wolff speaks in German and Hungarian and I frequently have to put translations in the end notes. I think it adds a little depth of character if it makes sense for said character but, if you're just doing it for the fuck of it, I feel like it takes you out of the scene.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
That would be Dorian Grey, particularly the 2009 film.
20. Favourite fic you’ve written?
Maybe not my favourite and maybe not one, single fic because it's all different fics smushed into one but I'm really proud of myself for Boydtober this year (I'm currently putting it out day by day). I've tried to complete Kinktober 4 different times and every time I've given up and gotten down about it. This year! I've prepared and completed it and it's 120k+! I'm so excited to share it with everyone!
Whew! That was a lot. Now I'm supposed to tag a bunch of people but, honestly, I don't know that many. I'll tag @the-broken-quill but then, if you see this and you wanna do it, do it.
I'm gonna peace out with my favourite gif of my favourite cowboy.
Lookit that smile! 😘😘
