Saw this meme over on Pillowfort and decided to fill it out. Lately I've been stuck in a rut where I want to write but don't actually DO it; I'm trying to self-motivate by reminding myself that writing is, in fact, a thing i'm capable of.
1) How many works do you have on AO3?
After all these years....16, orz
2) What's your total AO3 word count?
35,018
3) How many fandoms have you written for and what are they?
On AO3? Blazblue, Ninja Gaiden/Dead or Alive, Resonance of Fate, Ghost in the Shell, Left 4 Dead, Persona 4/Q, Soulcalibur, and Star Wars; eight total. There's a lot of drabble-length and microfic floating around livejournal/dreamwidth and old kink memes but i'm too lazy to try rounding them up at this point.
4) What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
Accidental Bliss (Persona Q, P4 Protag/P3 Protag)
these vices are my service (Persona 4, Adachi/Yu)
Merger (Ghost in the Shell, Hacker/Makoto, NON-CON)
Stain Your Hands With My Blood (Soulcalibur, Raphael/Siegfried)
Play the Angel (Blazblue, Tsubaki/Noel)
5) Do you respond to comments, why or why not?
I am horribly inconsistent about replying--honestly, i'm horribly inconsistent about even *reading* comments in the first place, mostly due to anxiety. I've been trying to chip away at this particular habit but there's still like, a 50% chance I will deal with a comment by pretending it doesn't exist.
6) What's the fic you've written with the angstiest ending?
i think all but 3 of my fics are angsty so not sure what to pick....
8) Do you write crossovers? If so what is the craziest one you've written?
no
9) Have you ever received hate on a fic?
no, but i did have one reader complain about a lack of pussy eating in a femslash fic which honestly is a valid complaint.
10) Do you write smut? If so what kind?
yes, the...uh...uncomfortable kind?
11) Have you ever had a fic stolen?
no
12) Have you ever had a fic translated?
no. i did have someone draw a whole comic from one of my first fics (back when fanfiction.net was the only major fic archive) which is....not at all the same, but pretty neat, right?
13) Have you ever co-written a fic before?
no
14) What's your all time favorite ship?
I keep going back to Raphael/Siegfried so i guess this rarepair that pretty much only i write is The One
15) What's a WIP that you want to finish but don't think you ever will?
all of my WIPs are things i no longer want to finish due to lost interest. That's kinda why they're WIPs in the first place (the 2nd place is that most of what i write is microfic one-shots). WHOOPS
16) What are your writing strengths?
I think i'm pretty decent at conveying internal conflicts/mixed emotions and describing tactile sensations.
17) What are your writing weaknesses?
the actual act of sitting down and putting words down orz
18) What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?
I think it's difficult to do well, and very easy to fuck up and break immersion, so I avoid it. If the character in question has a habit of using more than one language in their canon dialogue I use that as a guide, but I think adding phrases that a multilingual character *doesn't* use in canon is ahh...not a great idea?
19) What was the first fandom you wrote for?
Skies of Arcadia, back when I was still in high school. I used to ask my friends to read/review it at lunch lol :')
20) What's your favorite fic you've written?
I'm actually pretty happy with how Accidental Bliss turned out. Like, I wish I could write more unabashedly PWP fic lol. I'm usually dissatisfied with my """serious""" fic after writing it.
