20 Questions for writers
I was tagged by @fishing4stars, thank you so much <3
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
Currently 124
2. What's your total AO3 word count?
42,394 words (which would be a little under 342 words per fic)
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Right now mainly Silmarillion and Lord of the Rings, but I have written for The Witcher in the past, as well as some one-off drabbles and ficlets for smaller fandoms (I thought about Lewis today, maybe I'll add that to the list at some point)
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
Eating Love (Iorveth/Roche)
Plough the Lilies (Iorveth/Roche, nsfw)
In the Morning (Erestor/Glorfindel)
Dance to the Firelight (Iorveth/Roche, nsfw)
Mirror Image (Iorveth/Roche, nsfw)
5. Do you respond to comments?
Yes, always! It takes me anywhere between a few hours to a few weeks though.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Nothing beside remains, Iorveth/Isenrim, part of my Scoia'tael modern AU. I'm sorry I broke Iorveth's heart
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
If you could read my mind, Anaire/Nerdanel in post YT Valinor
8. Do you get hate on fics?
So far only from the one person known to stir up trouble in one of my fandoms
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
Yes! Everything I can see the appeal of is what I am open to writing
10. Do you write crossovers?
I haven't yet, but I am not opposed to doing so in the future
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
None that I know of
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
I am trying to translate some myself (I haven't gotten very far yet)
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
No
14. What’s your all time favorite ship?
Last time I said Russingon, but upon further thought the only correct answer can be Erestor/Glorfindel. I found evidence that I started shipping them over seven years ago, which might actually make them one of my first gay ships
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
There is a Hallmark movie-inspired Anaire/Nerdanel fic that I started last year (It's at a few hundred words right now) and while I still want to write all the Anaire/Nerdanel I can, I am not sure that one will ever see the light of day.
16. What are your writing strengths?
I can be short and to the point, which is one of the reasons I love drabbles.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
plot, the longer the worse I am. This and my inability to write a single word more than necessary is why I don't really write longfics.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
I am so, so torn on this, considering I am among the people who dislike the overuse of elvish in fics. But I also just started a WIP that will require me to put dialogue in Sindarin, just for the desired effect of the reader understanding about as much as the main character. So I guess I am fine with it as long as there isn't a constant mix and match between English and foreign words, but rather whole sentences in one or the other)
19. First fandom you wrote for?
The first published was Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, I am not revealing any before that xD
20. Favorite fic you’ve written?
Grace, more Anaire/Nerdanel (also only 150 words), but I love how it turned out
(If I ever write longer stories from some of my drabbles, this one sits at the top of the list.)
Tagging whoever wants to do this, I am eight days late and really not on top of who already participated.
