Day 7 - Have you ever had a fic change your opinion of a character?
Oh sure, this can happen a lot. In fact, I really like fics that can show me a whole different angle to a character, pointing out things I never thought about before.
I will admit, though, that this usually just happens to characters I don't like, showing me reasons that would get me to like them, rather than visa versa. I mean, if someone makes a good point about a character I like and shows me something negative about them, then of course I take that into consideration for the character. But it's harder to get me to not like them ^^;; Honestly, I like liking characters than hating them.
Day 1 - How did you first get into writing fanfic, and what was the first fandom you wrote for? What do you think it was about that fandom that pulled you in? Day 2 - Name the fandoms you've written in, and how much you've written in that fandom, and if you still write in it. Day 3 - For each of the fandoms from day two, what were your favorite characters to write? Day 4 - Do you have a "muse" character, that speaks to you more than others, or that tries to push their way in, even when the fic isn't about them? Who are they, and why did that character became your muse? Day 5 -If you have ever had a character try to push their way into a fic, whether your "muse" or not, what did you do about it? Day 6 - When you write, do you prefer writing male or female characters?Day 7 - Have you ever had a fic change your opinion of a character?
Day 8 - Do you write OCs? And if so, what do you do to make certain they're not Mary Sues, and if not, explain your thoughts on OCs.
Day 9 - Pairings - For each of the fandoms from day two, what are your three favorite pairings to write?
Day 10 - Pairings - Have you ever gone outside your comfort zone and written a pairing you liked, but found you couldn't write, or a pairing you didn't like, and found you could?
Day 11 - Genre - do you prefer certain genres of fic when you're writing? What kind do you tend to write most?
Day 12 - Have you ever attempted an "adaptation" fic of a favorite book or movie but set in a different fandom?
Day 13 - Do you prefer canon or fanon when you write? Has writing fanfic for a fandom changed the way you see some or even all of the original source material?
Day 14 - Ratings - how high are you comfortable with going? Have you ever written higher? If you're comfortable with NC-17, have you ever been shocked by finding that the story you're writing is G-rated instead?
Day 15 - Warnings - What do you feel it most important to warn for, and what's the strangest thing you've warned for in a fic?
Day 16 - Summaries - Do you like them or hate them? How do you come up with them, if you use them?
Day 17 - Titles - Are they the bane of your existence, or the easiest part of the fic? Also, if you do chaptered fic, do you give each chapter a title, or not?
Day 18 - Where do you get the most inspiration for your fics (aka "bunnies") from?
Day 19 - When you have bunnies, do you sit down and start writing right away, or do you write down the idea for further use?
Day 20 -Do you ever get bunnied from other people's stories or art in the same fandom?
Day 21 - Sequels - Have you ever written a sequel to a fic you wrote, and if so, why, and if not, how do you feel about sequels?
Day 22 - Have you ever participated in a fest or a Big Bang? If so, write about your favorite experience in relation to one. If not, are there any you've thought about doing? And if not, why not?
Day 23 - When you post, where do you post to? Just your journal? Just an archive? Your own personal site?
Day 24 - Betaing - 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?
Day 25 - Music - 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?
Day 26 - What is the oddest (or funnest) thing you've had to research for a fic?
Day 27 - Where is your favorite place to write, and do you write by hand or on the computer?

Day 29 - What is your current project or projects?
Day 30 - Do you have a favorite fic you've written? What makes it your favorite? And don't forget to give us a link!
Also, I wanted to try this one out again, just to see if I'll get any nibbles this time. Plus, maybe it'll help me get off my lazy butt and actually write something, haha.
The first TEN people to comment in this post get to request that I make a drabble of any pairing/character/group of their choosing*. In return, they have to post this in their journal, regardless of their ability level. If you can't write, but can do graphics, repost this anyway changing the drabble aspect to graphics.

* I would prefer fandoms I'm more familiar with, especially ones that I've already written before. But go ahead and ask for something anyway, and I'll give it a try. But to be on the safe side, try giving me some choices and I'll decide what I might be able to write. I also don't write slash/femslash, or anything higher than a T/PG-13 rating.
