frozen_delight started this for Fanfic Writers Appreciation Day... which was yesterday, but let's pretend it's still yesterday, okay? ;)Share...
1. an old fic (posted at least three years ago)
2. a new fic (posted within the last six months)
3. a fic you wish had gotten more attention (less than 50 kudos on AO3 or less than 30 comments on LJ)
4. a genfic
5. a fic focused on a female character
6. a fic which made you see a character in a new light
7. a fic which made you ship something
8. a fic which inspired you to write
9. a fic with a particularly memorable line
10. ??? (Excited to see what categories you come up with!)
( My answers. )
Stolen from indiachick, because I should be working:
1. Go to page 7 (or 77) of your current WIP.
2. Go to line 7
3. Copy down the next 7 lines – sentences or paragraphs – and post them as they’re written.
( WIP #1 -- Dean/Cas, human!AU, I know, I know, cancer that's killing fandom and all that. )
( WIP #2 -- S10 gen case-ish fic for frozen_delight )

That writing meme...
Aug. 25th, 2015 04:04 pmWell, why not? :)
I currently have 101 (eep!) works archived at AO3. Pick a number from 1 (the most recent) to 101 (the first thing I posted there), and I'll tell you three things I currently like or three random tidbits about it.
FYI, number 4 is illustrations by my DBBB artist, so I probably can't comment on that one except to say 'squee!'

7 lines meme
Jun. 6th, 2015 12:36 pmThe lovely frozen_delight tagged me in this, which is to post 7 lines from page 7 of your current WIP. So, here's what I've got:
1. ( Read more... )
This is from my Dean/Benny Big Bang, which as far as I can tell has no rules about not posting snippets. Also my artist just sent me the stuff they've been working on and HOLY SHIT, it's amazing. I'm so excited! XD
2. ( Read more... )
Cheating slightly, because 7 lines of this just didn't scan. This is from something I haven't actually touched since last year because challenges ate my life, but that I'd like to finish sometime this summer. It's a sequel to That's Me in the Corner, set shortly after "Meta Fiction". I always wanted that fic to be the first part in a series, but got a bit held up waiting to see what canon was going to do. I'm not sure if I'll ever end up writing the rest -- I'm fine with total AUs, or things that diverge from a much earlier point, but AUs slightly divergent from but parallel to current canon are much harder for me to keep straight in my head.
(Perhaps shouldn't overthink this so much. It's basically just angst and porn anyway.)
I feel as though everybody on my flist has already done this, so I tag anybody who hasn't done it yet and needs an excuse to procrastinate. ;)

1. Of the fic you’ve written, of which are you most proud?
2. Favourite tense
3. Favourite POV
4. What are some themes you love writing about?
5. What inspires you to write?
6. Thoughts on critique
7. Create a character on the spot... NOW!
8. Is there a character you love writing for the most? The least? Why?
9. A passage from a WIP
10. What are your strengths in writing?
11. What are your weaknesses in writing?
12. Anything else that you want to know... (otherwise known as Fill in the Blank)

Ganked from keevacaereni. :)
Give me a pairing and I'll answer the following. If it so moves you, give me a few pairs.
1.) What they most commonly do during sex (if they are the sexing type)
2.) Who has prettier (or just more attractive) hair
3.) What they argue about most often
4.) Who'd cope best if the other one died
5.) The happiest plausible happily-ever-after I can think of for them
6.) The most tragic possible ending for them
7.) What I enjoy most about their dynamic
8.) What I find difficult to write about them

O hai there procrastination...
Feb. 13th, 2011 10:51 pmPick a paragraph (or any passage less than 500 words) from any fanfic I've written, and comment to this post with that selection. I will then give you a DVD commentary on that snippet: what I was thinking when I wrote it, why I wrote it in the first place, what's going on in the characters' heads, why I chose certain words, what this moment means in the context of the rest of the fic, lots of awful puns, and anything else that you'd expect to find on a DVD commentary track.
(I can't promise the puns, and for this I apologise profusely...)
