Happy STS! What's a trope you cannot get enough of in your writing? Multiple answers are welcomed, lol!

Of the top of my head...

Bi4bi, collective trauma coping (romantic or platonic), anti-hero, hot blonde and bi, and women and men who commit atrocities for sympathetic reasons.

I want to write a book called “your character dies in the woods” that details all the pitfalls and dangers of being out on the road & in the wild for people without outdoors/wilderness experience bc I cannot keep reading narratives brush over life threatening conditions like nothing is happening.

I just read a book by one of my favorite authors whose plots are essentially airtight, but the MC was walking on a country road on a cold winter night and she was knocked down and fell into a drainage ditch covered in ice, broke through and got covered in icy mud and water.

Then she had a “miserable” 3 more miles to walk to the inn.

Babes she would not MAKE it to that inn.

POV: The year is 1787. You have business with Thierry de Ville-d'Avray and are meeting him in his office at the Garde-Meuble royal:

But let me tell you this sumptuous office's main purpose is to receive and impress visitors like you. When he's alone Thierry de Ville-d'Avray mostly works from a tiny, simple office.

It's cramped, which means it's easier to heat to a confortable temperature.

20 questions for fic writers

1. How many works do you have on AO3? going on 50+.

2. What’s your total AO3 word count? 49,173.

3. What fandoms do you write for? my most written for fandoms are in order 1) my original work. 2) Vampire Chronicles (books by Anne Rice). 3) TURN: Washington's Spies (blame @musicboxmemories for that one), and 4) Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812 (Dave Malloy)/War And Peace(Leo Tolstoy).

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Anti-hero (Multifandom - Original Work, TURN, Vampire Chronicles, and VTM)

Rainy Night & Sister Death (Vampire Chronicles)

July 12, 1804 (TURN)

They Build Coffins (Multifandom - original work, TURN, Vampire Chronicles, and VTM)

Best of Our Circumstances (A Song of Ice and Fire)

It is so random and it feels perfectly on-brand for me. But, I am really proud of Anti-hero and They Build Coffins!

5. Do you respond to comments? I do! But I can be slow at times.

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?... They Build Coffins, Sacrilegious Marriage , Hey, Little Songbird and Once the sun sets no candle can replace it - pain is fun!

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? Best of our circumstances is pure AU fluff, and Anti-hero isn't all doom and gloom.

8. Do you get hate on fics? No, cause I don't permit it.

9. Do you write s.mut? Yes, but I prefer with plot and themesTM.

10. Do you write crossovers? *stares at Anti-hero* I have a few, and if you count my own characters... a lot. Anti-hero/they build coffins was a stroke of genius, I don't take criticism. So thanks for that, @musicboxmemories, for RP and editing obviously I do.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen? I've had poetry stolen without credit but thankfully no. Media doesn't exist in a bubble. Don't be rude, lol.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated? Not to my knowledge, not opposed though.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before? No, but I'd love to! I did turn RP plots into all-out fics though. I should probably give @honorhearted / @musicboxmemories co-writing credits for the first 3rd of Anti-hero, but unless she asks, I won't. I am not pushy.

14. What’s your all-time favorite ship? Loustat (Vampire Chronicles), or all my oc x canons. Loustat will always be famous for a reason. Dysfunctional bi4bi vampires!

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? N/a, I am a completionist.

16. What are your writing strengths? My high school writing teacher said I was well-versed in all aspects of writing, but if I had to pick one, character creation/research for worldbuilding.

17. What are your writing weaknesses? Editing. But I manage, it helps I speak well and (usually) have good grammar.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic? I'd try for the sake of trying. I put French and Hindi in my fics cause those are my strongest (not English) languages.

19. First fandom you wrote for? Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812 (Dave Malloy)/War And Peace (Leo Tolstoy).

20. Favorite fic you’ve written? Anti-hero, at least for now.
