20, 30, and 34 for the fic writer ask game!! - pxpeyewynn ❤️ (have to anon bc it’s a sideblog 😔)

aw hello!! and thats totally fine 😊💛 i still ADORE you!! :) thank u sm for asking these, im always super excited!!

20. What’s your favorite part about the fanfiction writing process?

i think i’ve said this before but i really love when your in the thick of it and you get these beautiful bits of description or a character’s interior monologue, i don’t know what it is, but stringing it together so beautifully with words and poetic phrases, i just LOVE that part of writing. and i think that’s why i like writing so much. by just putting words together you can make people feel something, and i think that’s the best part about it all!! :) 

30. Post a snippet from your current WIP without context - no more than 300 words.

ok so i had to post a section where there were really no little spoilers or anything so here’s our two favorite medics, those respectful lil beans, in a scene in why we fight!

" You know, Gene," Lizzie said as she put a bobby pin into her braid crown, where she sat criss cross in front of the mirror on the counter, " these are some of the best bobby pins I've ever used." Gene was sitting next to her smoking a cigarette beside her, and swinging his feet off the counter.

" Lucky find." Gene said with a smirk her way as he blew out some smoke. Lizzie leaned back from her masterpiece and adjusted a few pieces of hair from her eyes.

" Still got the magic touch." Lizzie said, proud of herself.

" It looks nice." Gene said as he blew out another trail of smoke.

" My mom always did these for me as a kid. I loved them, thought I was Snow White." Lizzie said. Gene smiled at her. Lizzie glanced at the cigarette in his hand.

" All my time in war and I've never tried one." Lizzie said scrunching up her nose as she stared at the thing in his hand.

" I wouldn't if I were you." Gene said told her. Lizzie raised a brow at him.

" I'm a tough girl." she said, reaching out her hand.

" A tough girl who'll get lung disease if she tries it." Gene said pulling back.

" Then why are you smoking it?" Lizzie asked leaning forward with a smirk.

" It weeds off the stress." Gene told her, pushing it to his mouth again, but Lizzie quickly grabbing it from his hand and placed it on her lip. One puff and she was done, coughing and hacking on the smoke. She hated it.

" Told you. You're too pure for that." Gene told her and Lizzie glared at him.

" Not my issue that I have a trashy immune system." Lizzie said and Gene looked over at her.

" Really?" 

" Yep, no wonder that pneumonia last 2 months." Lizzie said, before jumping off the counter and to her feet. Gene sighed, before finishing the smoke.

" You wanna head over to the Current Event lecture?" Lizzie asked him, as Gene moved off the counter. Gene smirked at her.

" Yeah right." Gene told her as he picked up a box of bandages. Lizzie pouted.

" I'm not gonna listen to Nixon drone on, when I can listen to silence instead." Gene told her.

" You make a good point, good sir." Lizzie said, holding out her hand for a shake.

" I'm glad I do, mademoiselle, I always do." Gene said shaking it with a slight smirk.

" Shut up." she muttered, " I'll just bring the news back to you."

" Thanks, I'll pack the rest of this up." Gene told her as she backed up with a mock salute his way, before turning and dashing out. It was her and Gene's thing over the past month, to do weird little thing like they were old Englishmen in London grabbing tea, or they were commanders to each other, giving little salutes every so often. It made them laugh.

34. How much of yourself and your life experiences do you put into your writing? What do you think your readers’ image of you is?

i put a lot of myself into say my main oc, but i really don’t put my life experiences into my stories :) i have a good family, and i am so thankful for my life, so i usually tear away from that sometimes to show that not everyone who is the oc has a perfect family or a good life! for charlotte tarvers my main oc, she is a character who i feel is extremely reflective of myself, just because i put a lot of myself into her. i don’t know how to describe it, but i think writing a character similar to myself made things easier, because i could easily relate and know how she would react, and it was especially helpful when writing my first published fanfic on wattpad so yeah!! :) 

i’m not really sure what my readers’ image of me is! people always say i’m super nice and that they notice i take a lot of care in my writing, and to answer back at the comments, even if it’s the tiniest thing. people just say i’m really nice, but to be honest, i haven’t thought much about it, i’ve been busy writing so much LOL but i’m so appreciative to be told that!! <3

thank you so much for your questions!! i had fun answering these!!
