Writers Meme for my fans~ (Laugh)

01) Ideas. Where the hell do they come from? Can you make those little f**kers show up?
Anou...not really. I can't make them; they come to me naturally! They come from different places, such as lyrics, movies, shows, storylines or random conversations.

02) Wild horse-bunnies. When a story just gets pulled right out of you. Do you get them?
Sometimes, but they're always mixed up. I'll sometimes have a middle with not beginning or ending, or an ending with no beginning.

03) Writer's block. Have you been scourged?
Of course! It's usually when I'm actually writing; I'll sometimes sit there once I hit my writer's block and stare at the screen, trying to think of what to write. Usually, when that happens, I'll re-read what I have...then erase most of it and re-write. (Small laugh)

04) Clean up duty. Do you like editing?
I have to edit! I'm OCD [obsessive-compulsive disorder], so when I see a mistake I've made, I'm constantly editing and re-reading until I catch most of them. I still miss some, but I'm only human.

05) The ending. Is it hard for you to find the ending?
On chaptered stories, not really because I can make it flow from one chapter into another freely. One-shots are another story! I always fear that I won't be able to end it in a good way or that it'd be too cheesy or seem rushed. It depends on how creative I am at the time.

06) The title. Where do you get yours? Do you have yours when you start the story?
It's very, very rare if I have a title before I start a story! (Laugh) I tend to pull out the title when I've written from at least a paragrap to the first half of the story and it usually depends on what it's about or the song that fits with it the most. [Like My Life for You and Lonely] (;・ω・)

07) Plot. If you plot out your stories first, raise your hand.
I only really plot chaptered fics; the oneshots I write tend to usually only have a middle or an ending when I start them. The rest comes while I'm writing.

08) POV. How do you choose your POV for a scene? For a story?
Ah~! The POV usually comes from how I'm feeling at the moment; I've only ever really written in third person because it's more natural to me. [I've written in first person only once; I'm planning on doing it again soon.] I write in third person more, but I try to make band fics omniscient, so I usually put thoughts in first person in scenes.

09) Challenges. Do you like them? Do they inspire you?
I love them and I've been inspired them, but I fail when I try to do them! ;~; I have to get started on my Tsukasa [D'espairsRay] challenge for 10_encounters

10) Sex. Do you like writing sex?
I used to be so shy when I write sex scenes, but people seemed surprised when I said that the first smut scene I've ever written was...my first! (Laugh) I'm used to it now and I enjoy writing them, but I tend to get lazy and think that everything is overdone whenever I write it.

Whoever wants to do it, please feel free!
