A Writer's Meme.
Tagged by paintthemblue and now I tag the one person on my friend's list she didn't tag, theyaoiwildcard! ;DD
What's the last thing you wrote?
Uhh. "What Are They Doing To Us?" wait....that was the last thing I wrote that I posted. And I wrote about 3 words to a chapter I'm working on. So....what's this?
Was it any good?
You're asking me? Then I'll be honest. IT WAS A PIECE OF GARBAGE. AHAHAH. Which is like everything I write and it'll always be, because I'm never satisfied with anything I write. 8'DD And people always lie to me telling me, "It's fine! B|" over and over again, when what I want to hear is which part seems the most awkward. Right, paintthemblue?
What's the first thing you ever wrote that you still have?
OH! It's a makeshift story book I made in grade 1 with a "big buddy". It's called, "Frog's Kite". Once upon a time, Frog went to play in the park with Toad. It was windy, so Frog decided to fly his kite while Toad played on the swings. Whoops, the wind was too strong and blew the kite into a tree. Guess what? Toad saved Frog's kite when he really should not have, because Frog just declined to play with him a moment ago. Yay, kite is save! "You can play with me now, Toad." Oh, but grey clouds are rolling in, I think it will rain soon! And it does, so they go back home... THE END.
Write poetry?
No, but it sounds fun. I say that even though Poetry is the subject I dread the most in English. Haha....sonnets.... DDD;
Angsty poetry?
The only poem I ever wrote is a free verse about a little boy who wants to get out of his damned home. Does that count?
Favourite genre of writing?
Well...I like to write drama. You know, of all the beef, love triangles and twists that happen. Of course, with drama comes the angst and romance. However, I love reading about the paranormal. Not of vampires, wolves or demons, but of the ghosts and past life and other dimensions. Not only that, but I adore reading fiction about crime and mystery.
Most fun character you ever wrote?
ROFLMFAOLOL. Lambo. He's just so dumb and obnoxious and just...fun. He may be annoying as hell to deal with, but he's also kind of cute in his retarded way.
Most annoying character you ever wrote?
Onew. AHAHA. I'm kidding, so don't kill me mom. ;3; From all the fanfiction I wrote, I'll have to say Hibari Kyoya. His whole herbivore theory of life is makes him hard to stay in character when pairing him up. I mean, is he tsundere or yandere...? B|
How often do you get writer's block?
Everyday. In fact, I'm experiencing it right now, why else do you think I'm here?
How do you fix it?
Urm....well...idk? It fixes naturally? But it takes half a year at most. ;DD
Write fan fiction?
You expect me to write originals? Really?
Do you type or write by hand?
I type. Writing by hand is too painful and takes forever. Though I plot out on a notepad first.
Do you save everything you write?
Yes. Unless my computer crashes and deletes everything again. It just doesn't feel right to delete what I've worked on, even the incomplete and abandon ones. Idk why.
Do you ever go back to an old idea long after you abandoned it?
Why? I abandoned it for a reason. LOL. 1) It's boring and stupid and has no plot. 2) I lost my interest in the plot. 3) I never really wanted to write it anyway. In the most, I'll write a spin off of the storyline to make it more....interesting to write.
What's your favourite thing that you've written?
Oh. Ew. None. But if I have to pick.....probably Cancer? Sigh. Every time I mention that title, I feel so unsatisfied. The original storyline was supposed to be much more....hardcore. The obsession was extreeemee. Tae was supposed to be totally scared and paranoid, but alas, I've strayed yet again from my plot. One reason being I was running out of time. AHAHAH!
What's everyone else's favourite thing that you've written?
Geh. How would I know. *goes to check story stats* Okay, cool. The two story I wrote with the most fav is the two I hate the most. AHAHAH. Sad life. Q^Q I swear, the only reason people fav them is because 1) it's their fav pairing. 2) it's a relatively okay attempt at a oneshot. FAILFAILFAILFAIL. OTL.
"One Last Time" and "With You" are the titles. Plus something happened on FF that erased all my line breaks. Now it's really a mess of a fic. ;DD
What's your favourite setting for your characters?
Idk? Lost in the wilds of the forest? But probably the setting the characters will most likely be hanging around in. Unless it's AU if course.
What's one genre you have never written, and probably never will?
According to FF's list of genres, spiritual. AHAHAH. First, wth is spiritual even? Religious stuff and things concerning after life and such? I have no idea what it is to begin with. LOL. And if it is, I'm not a religious person and I don't dig the stuff about the world after the living. Though I like reading about the paranormal and all, straight on horror is not my type. I'm a chicken with a masochistic heart. I hate full blown horror stories, but I find myself watching horror flicks with my friends once in a while and I'm scared out of my skin.
How many writing projects are you working on right now?
Ones I'm currently writing are: 1) GLITCHED 2) a D18 oneshot.
Do you want to write for a living?
Nope. I'll die. I don't think I can live with the stress and deadlines. AHAHAH. I live the easy life....being unemployed.
Have you ever written something for a magazine or newspaper?
Oh god, don't remind me. There was this time in elementary school where our whole class had to write a composition for the school's special event magazine.... It was stupid. My composition.
Have you ever won an award for your writing?
Nope. None.
Ever written something in script or play format?
The script I wrote in drama class back in 8th grade for our sitcom assignment, yes. Something about cat fights, circus scandals and love hexagons.
What are your five favourite words?
Pariah, hardcore, obsession, psychopathic and lucid.
What character that you've written most resembles yourself?
.....Umm....either Dino or Lambo. LOLOLOL. there are some traits in Dino I have and some in Lambo I have. Say for example, Dino's carefree personality--or rather how I like to write him as. And Lambo's sore loser characteristic, I also have. AHAHAHA.
Where do you get ideas for your other characters?
I just...do. Like the other day, while I was on my bed trying to fall asleep, I just plotted out futrue scenes for GLITCHED and I came upon a OC before I even knew how. LOL. I only use them when I need to fill in a role that no other character can play.
So in a way, I guess you can say I get them in my bed.
Do you ever write based on your dreams?
Always, dude! I dream a lot. And they are mostly about the fandoms I'm currently into. In one night I dream at least 3 times. Even if the dream is not about the specific fandom, I usually just replace them to be the specific fandom.
Do you favour happy endings, sad endings, or cliff-hangers?
I like them all, but it really depends. For oneshots and drabbles I often prefer sad endings. However, for long fics it all really depends on the story...
Are you concerned with spelling and grammar as you write?
As I write? I'm concerned about stuff like that after I write. While I'm writing I only need to be concerned of completing whatever I'm writing.
Talk about your writing style.
o___________________o; "I never knew styles existed until now" -- paintthemblue
AHAHAH. I can't really name what my style is. I just write it. HAHAFAIL. But I can say I write in a simple way and I try to re-arrange my style to go with the mood. Oh wait--I used the word style didn't I? ROFL. Okay, fine. I like to make abrupt stops in my sentences and refer to related things. And after describing something I tend to place a comma and give a word that describes what I just said entirely. Plus a lot of dialogue and not but description afterward.
Does music help you write?
Music helps my everything. B| I sometimes spend more time searchign for an appropriate song to fit my fic than writing.... nice.
Quote something you've written. The first thing to pop into your mind.
Honestly, the only thing that popped into my mind just now was to delete everything I've wrote so far and pretend I didn't see Saki's post. 8'DD But that will waste my 1 hour of effort.
"Miracles don't happen, love does-love kills. Just like I would kill for my love. But most don't understand, only those who have experienced true love understands. And in this society, I only know of two people who could possibly understand me-my mother and father. Unlike all the other high society adults, they didn't marry because of status, money or fame; they married because they loved each other, yet nobody acknowledged their relationship because of my mother's low social status. Still, in my eyes they were the perfect couple with the best chemistry, but in society's eyes they were a mistake-I was a mistake.
There is still one person I would add to that list, but I won't, not anymore. He's a coward who is too afraid to fight back. But fine, if he won't fight for our love, then I will. I'll do anything to take back what we had together, because it belongs to us and nobody can take it from us! Not even my grandmother. Especially not my grandmother." -- What Are They Doing To Us?
