Fic reading/writing meme~

Aug 12, 2011 11:29

Bored at work, so have a meme!

Do you read or write fanfiction?
Lately it feels like I write more... Maybe because my major fandoms have so few writers?

When did you first start reading/writing fanfiction?
Hmm, pretty sure it was early high school. I vaguely recall Zorro and Invisible Man fics... >_>

What was your first fandom?
*points* See above XD As far as writing, at least. I was definitely more involved in the 'fandom' part of I-man though.

First ship?
I didn't have any ships really--I wrote some I-man Mary Sue fic though, which was...eesh XD; The first thing I wrote with an actual SHIP in mind was probably some Gohan/Videl fic for DBZ.

What website do you use most?
Used to be ff.net, but nowadays it's LJ, AO3, or my personal fic archive (which hosts only Myu/Myu-related RPS)

What do you think of Fanfiction.net?
.....yeah, no :P It's mostly for people who have nowhere else to put stuff, I guess, or who just want to get maximum exposure? I long ago tired of their interface and the dearth of goodfic.

What fandoms have you written in?
Myu/Myu-related verses of course
Dragonball Z
DNAngel
No.6
(and I've dabbled in certain fandoms by certain famous BL mangaka that some of you may know I've written for but which I don't advertise because I am STEALTH XD)

Pairings?
Myu/Myu-related verses: Tuti/Nagayan, Eiji/Daiki, Wasshi/Mizuki, T2, Shisui/Saiga, Ronny/Todd, Albert/Coleman, Nataraja/Pasupata, Vishnu/Parvati, Haru/Izumi, Azuma/Taji, Zankimaru/Sanada Yukimura, Tacchan/Mako-chan, Shimura/Hiiro,
Dragonball Z: Gohan/Videl
DNAngel: Krad/Satoshi
No.6: Nezumi/Shion

Any fandoms you would like to write in?
Much as I love TeniPuri, and as much fic I've written for TeniMyu, I've never actually been able to bring myself to write anything for my OTPs there D: I feel like a failure...

Do reviews affect how you write in any way?
Yes! In that they pretty much always make me happy 8D I especially love long, spazzy ones of incoherency and ones that pull out favorite lines because it makes me proud of my work when I feel like I did a good job with some dialogue or something and someone else corroborates that :DDDD

Do you use a beta?
I've only recently been asking lavenderlilly to beta the stuff I put out, mostly for typos! I wish I had more patience XD; Usually I want to put it out there so badly and am too self-conscious that someone else will be all "this really doesn't sound IC" even though I know that's for the better...

What ratings do you read/write?
Everything! Though I have to be in the right mindset to write porn.

What warnings have you used on your fiction?
I don't think I've ever had to! Other than perhaps "semi-AU"?

Do you have any squicks?
I almost will never read anything with: mpreg, D/m themes, three-or-moresomes, rape (dub-con I'm more lenient on)

Do you Role-play online? If so, what?
Nope :/

Have you ever stolen something from another person's work?
Nope, but I've written sequels/spinoffs of others' stuff with their permission~

Favorite fandom to write/read?
For both, it's all my fandoms I'm active in :D

Favorite pairing?
I feel really comfortable these days writing Tuti/Nagayan (and by extension, Nataraja/Pasupata), Nezumi/Shion, and erm, that other fandom I mentioned above XD

Favorite writer/writers?
analineblue for anything Tuti/Nagayan!
tristefic/yumemiya for anything Nezumi/Shion!
Also, she hates being bugged to write, but lavenderlilly's stuff always winds up being long, hot, and stupidly enjoyable XDDD

How long should a chapter be?
I don't feel like I've written anything of note really unless it's at least 1500 words. Between 2-3000 is a nice effort for me, and anything over that I'm all "8DD HEE LOOKIT WHAT I DID PRAISE ME PRAISE ME".

Do you write/read drabbles?
.......Define "drabble" XD If it's a very very loose definition, then...yes! I host drabble challenges fairly frequently, and am probably the person responding to most of the prompts 8D I wish there were some kind of No.6 or other fandom I write drabble challenge going on XD

Any fandoms you avoid?
Umm, fandoms I'm not in? :D;;;

Pairings you avoid?
I'm pretty serious an OTP shipper, so I won't touch with a ten-foot-pole anything that interferes with a pairing I ship, usually :/ I just can't help reading it and wondering, "But...why isn't X with Y? I just don't see how their relationship didn't graduate into that..."

Warnings you avoid?
All of the above squicks I mentioned, I suppose? Also, people who warn for "homosexual relationships" set me to side-eyeing them >_>

Do the number of reviews tell how good a story is?
I like to hope not (though most REALLY good fics in REALLY big, active fandoms tend to have a lot!)

What do you think of Mary Sues?
Female OCs? Sure, whatever! Mary Sues? No thanks :| I used to write them before I knew what they were and am so embarrassed XD;;

Have you ever flamed someone?
Nope.

Have you ever been flamed?
Not that I recall! Though I've been called out on the above Mary Sue.

fanfic, memeage
