Write poetry?
At one point, yes.
Angsty poetry?
Yeah, probably. ^_~
Favourite genre of writing?
Introspective, character-driven.
Most fun character you ever wrote?
They're all fun! Really. Otherwise I wouldn't bother. :D
Most annoying character you ever wrote?
Tuti? ...Or maybe Jack. :P *laughs* I don't know, really. ;)
How often do you get writer's block?
All the time. XD;
How do you fix it?
Usually by just walking away and coming back later.
Write fan fiction?
Yep!
Do you type or write by hand?
Usually I type, because it's faster, but I jot down ideas on paper. And on several occasions I've written entire stories by hand when there wasn't a computer around...
Do you save everything you write?
Without fail. :D
Do you ever go back to an old idea long after you abandoned it?
More than once, yes.
What's your favourite thing that you've written?
Oh man, I don't know. I'm proud of some of my longer stuff, I guess? Maybe Pulse?
What's everyone else's favourite thing that you've written?
I really have no idea. XD;
What's your favourite setting for your characters?
Well, it depends on the characters, but probably somewhere in Japan.
What's one genre you have never written, and probably never will?
Historical fiction. Too many facts and dates. XD;; Nothing against reading it though!
How many writing projects are you working on right now?
...I've got a few things on my mind. ;)
Do you want to write for a living?
I would love to, but I'm not sure how well that would work out. I can only write when something really, really inspires me, and I go through long periods where nothing fits that bill? I'm pretty much incapable of writing on command though, so I imagine that might end up being a problem if I was getting paid. XD;;
Have you ever written something for a magazine or newspaper?
Not since high school/college.
Have you ever won an award for your writing?
Not really, no.
Ever written something in script or play format?
A long time ago, yes.
What are your five favourite words?
*thinks* I'll know them when I see them, but... Obtuse? Eviscerate? God, I really don't know. :P
What character that you've written most resembles yourself?
Probably Nagayan.
Where do you get ideas for your other characters?
Since I mostly write fan fiction, the answer to this is probably obvious. ;)
Do you ever write based on your dreams?
I can't say that I have.
Do you favour happy endings, sad endings, or cliff-hangers?
Satisfying endings.
Are you concerned with spelling and grammar as you write?
Absolutely.
Does music help you write?
It can help to inspire me, but I don't listen to anything when I'm actually writing because I get distracted. XD;; This is possibly one reason why editing drives me so insane, but... I really can't listen to music, especially music with words, when I write.
Quote something you've written. The first thing to pop into your mind.
No. Sorry. ;)
Not tagging anyone, but I'm curious about the writing one for all the writers on my flist! :D
