twenty questions for fic writers
tagged by @tiltingheartand ✨
how many works do you have on ao3? 390
what's your total ao3 word count? 1,106,734
what fandoms do you write for? Mostly 9-1-1 at this point. I also write a few times a year for Shadowhunters and Teen Wolf. I've dabbled in Stranger Things, Criminal Minds, and Lone Star. Then the occasional femslash pairing for other fandoms haha
top five fics by kudos:
one of the few things (9-1-1 (TV)) - 2,147 kudos
It Started With A High Chair (Teen Wolf (TV)) - 2,035 kudos
you've got me surrounded (9-1-1 (TV)) - 1,667 kudos
Calculated Risk (Teen Wolf (TV)) - 1,599 kudos
we made these memories for ourselves (9-1-1 (TV)) - 1,415 kudos
do you respond to comments? I used to be so good at responding to comments, but then I write a bunch of fics in a row and get too overwhelmed with comments which leads to my inbox currently in the 400s 😅
what is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? I have one (1) MCD fic, When the World Stops Turning, that I wrote for Shadowhunters. And then I have a serial killer Reid fic called Bad Blood Always Wins where he tortures Hotch for a little and does not end happy but it's also one of my favorite fics ak;sldjfasd
what's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? The other like 350+ fics of mine have happy endings. I am a happy ending slut. But my fluffiest, happiest fic has to be What's Easy is Right which is all fluff, no angst buddie.
do you get hate on fics? I have a few times in the past, but nothing I even really remember at this point.
do you write smut? I used to write smut with ease but it doesn't come so easy for me anymore ;aldkjfasd So, yes and no I guess.
craziest crossover? I wrote a 9-1-1/You crossover for Sadie called A Good Man which was so fun to explore. I also did a Criminal Minds/Teen Wolf crossover for kinktober which was hilarious to me, A Fulfilling Partnership.
have you ever had a fic stolen? Once that I know of. You can still find it on AO3 because it's changed just enough that AO3 doesn't agree. 🤷🏻♀️
have you ever had a fic translated? Yes! Our Heartbeat, an RJS Shadowhunters fic, was translated into Magyar.
have you ever co-written a fic before? Only twice before. I want to get into doing it with my wife, but we're not sure how to start ;asldjf;asd
all time favourite ship? This is an impossible question. And I refuse to believe that any writer can actually answer it.
what's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? I have a 6a Sterek rewrite that's constantly swirling around my mind. I also have a steddie fic where they meet via Dustin making them both have radios and they only communicate through that without knowing who the other is.
what are your writing strengths? I feel like I'm really good at characterization. I try really hard to keep my characters as close to canon as possible even in AU situations.
what are your writing weaknesses? Doing. It? No, seriously, I have a hard time just putting the worlds onto paper or like, writing a rough draft. Everything has to be perfect on the first try so that often leads to not writing at all.
thoughts on dialogue in another language? I don't speak another language, so I try to keep dialogue in other languages to what has been heard in canon and/or like a word or two.
first fandom you wrote in? Officially, Shadowhunters. But I used to write like fucking Jonas Brothers fanfiction back in the day, then Larry fanfiction after that.
favourite fic you've written? I think I'm most proud of tell me what’s worse (losing you now or later?) even though it's a different fic than I thought it was going to be.
For 9-1-1, I also love More to the Story and he is your heart (and you are his).
For Shadowhunters, I love An Unlikely Angel and Love, Loss, and Pride.
For Teen Wolf, Born out of Magic and the entire series How the Scene Should Have Gone - Sterek Edition.
For Stranger Things, Like Looking at the Stars.
For Criminal Minds, My Happiness Is With You or Fixed With a Nap.
Tagging: @bytheangell, @brasscacti, @bigfootsmom, @ anyone else who wants to do this cause I don't know usernames off the top of my head alskjdfl;as 😅
