I walked up to a restaurant entrance at the same time as this guy and he held the first door for me and then I held the second door for him and he said "we call that the Midwestern two-step" with a laugh and I've been thinking about it all day.

I hope every writer who sees this writes LOADS the next few months. Like freetime opens up, no writers block, the ability to focus, etc etc you're able to write loads & make lots of progress <3

9, 19 and 29 for the writer meme :)

Thank you! <3

9. start to finish, how long did it take you to write the last fic you posted?

The timing of this is insane; the answer is 2.5 hours, but that's just because this morning I very quickly wrote a fill for the TL kink meme, posted it as anon, immediately felt posting on anon was the wrong choice, watched it semi bomb, had a conversation with myself about anonymity and engagement and """""value"""" markers w/r/t writing online, then took it off anon. LOLLLL

Normally the answer would be much longer, somewhere between a few days (writing a couple--or many--hours a day) and a few months (writing an hour or two on some or many of the days). But the accurate answer in this moment in time is 2.5 hours.

19. the most interesting topic you’ve researched for a fic

Even if you weren't the person asking, I think I'd have to say researching the music Rebecca helps Nate record for Ted in "stay open." It involved listening to a lot of classical violin solos and researching the history of some to figure out one that seemed like it would be very challenging but also enjoyable for Nate to learn to play, and that I loved (because I'd need to listen to it a lot), and that hit viewers/listeners over the past centuries with the right sorts of feelings. I was really lucky to find one that's very emotional and striking and that felt like the right length of time--long enough to be an impressive endeavor of love but not so long that you couldn't just listen to it in the car while going on a short-ish drive. @itsagutthing even helped by checking w/a friend on some of the correct ways to refer to the chaconne in conversation. Writing that fic was soooo fun and I listened to that Bach piece so many times and still listen to it pretty regularly!

29. how easy is it for you to come up with titles?

It's either immediate and very easy or it's the very last thing I do and I agonize over it. (Or I just get you to tell me what should be called.) Titles are so hard!

4, 8, and 12 for the writer ask, please and thank you 😊

Hi, thank you! :D

4. a story idea you haven’t written yet

I have an idea for a story inspired by the London Calling book cover in this phenomenal @thesumdancekid + @talldecafcappuccino T/R bookcover collaboration. I'm not totally sure if it would be set in a different time period, although I am toying with it, and in general it'd be a play on "calling" with Rebecca spending some post-canon time in Kansas with Ted. I have not written a single word and it's possible I never will, but it's fun to think about!

8. if you had to write a sequel to a fic, you’d write one for…

Answered here!

12. a trope you’re really into right now

This feels disappointing but I can't really think of a specific trope that I'm particularly into these days? Anything in the vein of bedsharing, "there was only one bed," and travel scenarios leading to unexpected closeness are forever a fave, though.

3, 8, 16, and 27 for the writer’s asks! 💖

Hi! Thank you!

3. how you feel about your current WIP

Depending on how actively you define WIP, I have between 3 and 5 stories that count as true active WIPs.

I'm writing a thing about Nora studying in Italy and being visited by Rebecca & crew that I just need a bit more time to work on and I think I'll really be in a flow!

I've got a Keeley/Ted-centric story that I've been actively thinking about since last September so I have so many weird 3D life memories of thinking about this fic in different places and I feel anxious about whether the actual in-docs version of this story could live up to it.

I've got the third installment of Boy-Crazy Rebecca going and it has been frustrating but I had a realization that what I'd been thinking of as two separate stories (three and four in the series) needed to be combined into one, with the plot of "story four" as a framing device for story three. So I have hope again lol.

And the other two are kind of non-things right now, barely what you could call paragraph form.

8. if you had to write a sequel to a fic, you’d write one for…

I won't cheat and just say the sequel that I'm already writing. I think I'd enjoy writing sequels to anticipate or salt, although I don't have any plans to.

16. favorite place to write

My writing desk! Looking out at my front yard and getting distracted by people and dogs walking by. Usually with a scented candle burning. I try to keep that desk to be a spot only for creating things and communicating with people, so it's an incredibly happy place for me.

27. your favorite part of the writing process

I love the very beginning, when all the glittery ideas/vibes/intentions are at the forefront of my mind and I haven't gotten bogged down by anything yet. And I love the point approaching the end but not yet having to deal with things like the final line or the title. If I'm working with a beta/editor, that point when I've gotten their comments back and have hope that I'll be able to finish the story. Or if I'm working solo and self-editing only, that point when I start to taste the end and feel motivated to write more quickly.
