30 Days Of Fan Fiction: Day 24 and Day 25
24 - How many betas do you like to use to make sure there aren't any major flaws in your fic? Do you have a beta horror story or dream story?
Just the one if it's not so short I don't bother - the excellent who is kind enough to do it despite no longer being in my main fandom. I'm not sure who else I'd turn to.
And as LJ wasn't up last night (and cross-posting from DW still isn't working) another question:
25 - Do you listen to music while you write? Do you make playlists to get into a certain "mood" to write your fic? Do you need noise in general? Or do you need it completely quiet?
No, no, no, and yes! OK, Mozart or Bach would be fine but just about any other noise, especially songs with lyrics, conversation, or Greg watching TV in the next room (this is OK if I close the door) short-circuits the word-handling part of my brain.
Rest of the questions
26 - What is the oddest (or most fun) thing you've had to research for a fic?
27 - Where is your favourite place to write, and do you write by hand or on the computer?
28 - Have you ever collaborated with anyone else, whether writing together, or having an artist work on a piece about your fic?
29 - What is your current project or projects?
30 - Do you have a favourite fic you've written? What makes it your favourite? And don't forget to give us a link!
