What's the last thing you wrote?
The last thing I finished was my Prison Break correction of the final of season two.
Was it any good?
I hope so.lindtti, what do you think?
What's the first thing you ever wrote that you still have?
The first thing I've ever written was a story about the smurfs, when I was like seven years old, but I don't have it anymore. I SWEAR it was not slash.
I still have my diaries, which I started, when I was thirteen or twelve. Do they count?
Write poetry?
I tried and noticed that I need more words.They sucked, btw *ggg*
Angsty poetry?
Yes, I was 16. Everything was angsty
Most fun character you ever wrote?
Seth Cohen. I love to write him. And LJ Burrows. I have fun writing my Prison Breakobsession OTP in general
Most annoying character you ever wrote?
Arwen, maybe? Because I really can't stand her and I needed her in one of my fics.
Best plot you ever wrote?
The Michael/Lincoln crack, I think. And the LOTR AU. (It hasn't been posted, yet)
Coolest plot twist you ever wrote?
My alternative Sona thing. And it's not "cool" in a "cool way" but cool in a "I fixed it in a believable way" way, I guess...
How often do you get writer's block?
Waaaaaaaaay to often.
How do you fix it?
I'm bitching and whining about it. And bitching and whining some more.
Sometimes I'm watching TV (movies or shows) to get inspired.
Sometimes I write by hand and sometimes I just have to wait and hope it won't last long...
Do you type or write by hand?
In case of the evil writer's block I write by hand. Or when I can't focus sitting in front of the document. But most of the time, I type.
Do you save everything you write?
Pretty much, yeah.
Do you ever go back to an old idea long after you abandoned it?
Hm... I have a few unfinished stories that I don't want to give up, even when I haven't written them for years, but basically, no. I'm not going back.
What's your favourite thing that you've written?
The Crack fic I mentioned above (still writing it)
What's everyone else's favourite thing that you've written?
I don't know? You tell me :)
Do you ever show people your work?
Yeah, I do.
Who's your favourite constructive critic?
irrlicht74, lindtti and lifthrael
Did you ever write a novel?
I would love to, but I love fanfics way too much.
Have you ever written fantasy, sci-fi, or horror?
Hm...*thinks* No. At least I can't remember...
Ever written romance or teen angsty drama?
Romances all the way, baby.
What's one genre you have never written, and probably never will?
Crime novels or horror.
How many writing projects are you working on right now?
You mean activley?
-crack
-special hell
-Panama crossover
but I have a few more fics to finish on which I'm not writing at the moment...
Do you want to write for a living?
That would be awesome, but noone is paying for fanfics, yet
Have you ever written something for a magazine or newspaper?
No
Have you ever won an award for your writing?
No
Ever written something in script or play format?

Do you ever write based on yourself?
Yes
Which of your characters most resembles you?
I'm not writing original characters
Where do you get ideas for your characters?
Look answer right above
Do you ever write based on your dreams?
Yes, once or twice, but I mostly write based on my morning thoughts...
Do you prefer happy endings, sad endings, or cliff-hangers?
Happy endings, because they are rare in real life.
Have you ever written anything based on an artwork you've seen?
I don't think so
Are you concerned with spelling and grammar as you write?
Yes, but I'm very glad I have awesome grammar betas *loves*
Ever write something entirely in chatspeak?
No. I don't like chatspeak
Does music help you write?
It depends on my mood. And on the plot. Sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't.
Are people surprised and confused when they find out you write well?
Do I? And yes, people are suprised that I write and I guess they would be pretty shocked if the'd knew what I write about *giggles*
Quote something you've written.
"Dad, are you gay?"

Poetry? WOW! I didn't know!
The Crack fic *loooooooooooooooooooooves* <3
My favourite thing that you have written? All your Minde fics for me! *grins* Especially your 'Minde cheer-ups'. Do you realize that it saved my life a couple of times? I really love it!
But seriously I love The Crack, Sona and now you really caught me with Special Hell. Yes, I will end up in hell too, but I love the idea! *giggles*
Awwwww! Constructive critic! <3 Thank you!
"Dad, are you gay?" Sounds pretty familiar.... *giggles*

Date: 2008-04-28 09:06 pm (UTC)The Smurfs are male with only one female. Hello? They are the first gay commune in TV land!
My poems were really bad. I'm more the short-story-girl.
*giggles* I love the cheer ups, too! And I'm glad you like them so much *hugs*
Oh special hell. I'm writing at it as we speak. But you are on Minde high now, so I'll give it to you tomorrow.
Thank *you*, because you make my fics better with your suggestions!
*loves LJ and that scene very much*

And thank you back! Because you do the same for me :)
*giggles* But my favourite scene is still the one with the car keys <3 *giggles even more*

Date: 2008-04-29 09:37 pm (UTC)Aber ich wollte dir sagen, dass ich heute Mittag in zwei Freistunden und gestern abend endlich wieder dazu gekommen bin Icons für meinen QAF-Claim zu machen. Und gar nicht so wenige, wie ich finde.
Ich wollt dir nur schnell den Link zum stalken geben: 42_graphics (http://community.livejournal.com/42_graphics/1485.html#cutid1)
Ich muss mal sehen ob ich jetzt am langen Wochenende online komme. Vielleicht morgen in meinen Freistunden.
Weil morgen abend bin ich auf einem Geburtstag, Donnerstag abend mit einer Freundin 'auf der Piste', Freitag... hab ich den Tag Zeit, da verspreche ich dir online zu sein! Ehrenwort! ... Samstag muss ich morgens arbeiten, kann aber abends online kommen (auch versprochen!) und Sonntag Probe...
Also, wir sehen uns auf jeden Fall! *KNUTSCH* Vermiss dich...

Date: 2008-04-29 10:20 pm (UTC)Außerdem vermisse ich Dich auch, also ruh Dich gut aus, weil wenn Du krank bist, bzw vor Überanstrengung umfällst, dann seh ich Dich gar nicht mehr. *knutsch*
