2. Huh, I don't remember how I stumbled over to ffnet anymore... probably because of someone from the Rurouni Kenshin mailing list I was part of.
Wah, spoilers in the summaries. XD; Sometimes not wanting to get spoiled is a large reason why I push myself to catch up with a series.
My first fanfic was an OC experiment Beyblade fic. Telepathic powers, sentient bitbeast, human experimentation... no, I'm still not carrying these themes and likes seven years on, what are you talking about? *innocent look* *cracks up*Hahaha! I see your interests are still the same
( ... )
18. Plotbunnies totally count, don't they? XDD;; Getting ideas that want to be written now, omg, write me now, write me now, omg OMG and don't let go until I've written them totally inspires me to write. :P LOL!!! Rabid plunnies~. Your plunnies list has gotten very long. I didn't think that was possible. =P But you also have a lot crossed out now! I tried to start a plunny list (that didn't work too well). I think I'm going to start a... WIP list instead to remind myself to go back to my ideas without dropping them. XD
19. I think your writing has improved a lot recently. :O Those writing books helped a lot? :D
"Sometimes not wanting to get spoiled is a large reason why I push myself to catch up with a series." XD Same. For me, it's also so I know what not to write about if the series has already gone over something I wanted to write about. X3
Yeeeep, my interests haven't changed a bit - I've just been lucky enough that I've found good series where those are centred around~ ♥ I can't believe I hadn't realised it earlier until I wrote those original fics for the creative writing course. XD;; If left to my own devices, that's what I'll gravitate towards. :3
( ... )
XD You've probably got the notification for it now.
"I often think... that stuff I want to see would probably eventually get explained by the series, and it would really suck if it was already covered in the series but I just didn't know because of being behind everyone else. XD;" I hadn't quite realised just how much of a... canon-ist(?) I am? If something happens in canon then it is The Truth and I don't want to break that. Which is why I quietly ship Sunshine and Kenshin, but can't break Sunshine and Fairsky up. On the other hand, I guess it's also because they're happy and arrrgghh... I dunno.
"I can't write established relationships though, because my mind just goes... how in the world did they end up in a relationship when it wasn't like that in the series!?" This. I want to know how it happened, because that affects how the people act together
( ... )
I have. I love that notifications are finally working again, yay~. I depend on them so much!
I seem to be pretty much the same, goodness. That explains why I tend to prefer certain fics and not others. XD; But if a writer is skilled to enough to explain away something that might not have fit in canon, that's good writing. :D Sunshine and Kenshin are so shippable. ;__; (Though I guess Sunshine and Fairsky had been planned from the start... with their names and all). They are happy and everything too. come, convert to shipping Kenshin and Arctic Fox, hahahahAnd then if they were in a relationship with someone else in the actual series, I want to know what happened to that relationship if they're paired with someone else in the fic. :O
( ... )
"You seem to read more fanfic before? XD; But maybe reading everything certain people write is still a lot. XD;" Yeah, seems a little contradictory, but one person (
( ... )
Yeeeeah. XD I did a quick search in the Harry Potter fandom and found a fic that was 900k+ so maybe I was thinking of seeing someone who wrote 500k in one fic, and then in the sequel, wrote another 500k?
So, since you mentioned ffnet and word count, I took a look at my overall word count since 2000 (this is with author notes and headers included), and it's only 1/3rd of that!
900k for one fic is amazing. @____@
Some fanfic are truly very long though. I think I've read a lot of fanfic that's longer than most novels I read. I went to the library today and checked out some books, thinking they were so short. I can probably finish them very quickly. XD;

Oh whoa, 500+ fics? In how long? :O Even after NaNo, I still think huge word counts are insane. (50k is probably nothing for some writers, haha)
The middle parts of my fics are nonexistent. XD;

In... twelve years, I think?
>_____> There's a fic over on ff.net that has a word count of a million. I'm sure I've seen it. I didn't try to read it though. XDD;

WOW.
