MEME!

1. What led you to write?
Fanfiction, when I was like, 13-14 years old. Was rather horrible at it, but reading books and more fan fiction helped me improve.

2. When did you start writing?
Around 13 years old, just to get my stories out, I didn’t like doing it… unlike now, when inspiration hits me everyday

3. What does writing represent in your life?
Imaginations, thoughts, ideas, whatever

4. Are you happy with your current style?
It could be better, it always seems to be changing… especially depending on the mood I’m in, or if I’m really interested in what I’m writing, usually the reader can tell this.

5. Do you do editing?
Recently, yes. I think I’m better at noticing other people’s mistakes than my own haha

6. Do you read about writing (creative writing books, grammar books...)?
No, I usually don’t think to do that. My AP English teacher gives plenty of advise


7. Favourite genre?
I pick up any book that’s won and Edgar Allen Poe Award (and they’re always good!) but, I don’t really have a favorite. It just depends on my mood. Comedy, romance, suspense…

8. Favourite author(s)?
don’t have one… I like the way Graham McNamee writes though…

9. Favourite book?
Don’t have one The Book of Dead Days by Marcus Sedgwick is pretty amazing though

10. What do you prefer to write?
Something that isn’t in the normal writing realm :/

11. Is there anything you can't write?
Vampires (cos Twilight killed any seriousness they already had to me) and I have trouble holding an audience when I write suspense… need to work on that.

12. What is the weirdest thing you have ever written?
Dunno, someone would havta tell me

13. Choose a topic: love, death, friendship. Now write a couple of lines about it.
(had a brain fart, come back later)

14. Do you think you have influences from any professional writer? If so, which ones?
I don’t think so…

15. Worst book you have read so far?
I usually set down a book if it’s horrible, so I can’t pick a name for you…
However, I can say Breaking Dawn (Last book in the Twilight series) was horrid, and is in fact on my list of “Worst books ever read”

16. Why is it so bad, in your opinion?
Well… I wouldn’t say it was horribly written, I always envy people who can pull off first person well. But it was the fact that EVERYTHING turned in favor of the main character, it was like Meyer had turned into a fan girl, it was all awkward to read… very unrealistic. There was no plot (no, there wasn’t) and it had the worst ending I have ever read in a book. Meyer introduced something, and didn’t even explore it all the way.

17. Choose one of your characters and describe them in three words.
Jim, I guess.
Smart, blunt, caring

18. Does your character feel ‘alive’?
I havent really explored enough with him… he was the main character in my original short story. As for if HE feels alive? I havent figured it out yet… he is an odd character.

19. Could you kill this character?
… I could, but I wont

20. Do you hate any of your own characters?
No… I don’t have a lot >.>

21. Now, let's be honest. Every writer has their own favourite creation. What's your favourite story, out of everything you have written/planned to write? And character?
Her Song no one has seen my original fiction though, so you guys don’t know what I’m talking about

22. Have you ever abandoned an idea for a story? Why?
Usually I write them down, or I forget them… but I’ve never abandoned an idea. I actually has several ideas for fan fiction, and more for fiction, but I don’t want to start until I get better at writing

23. Have you ever deleted a whole piece of work? Why?
No, because no matter how bad it is, I can learn from it.

24. And finally: make up a completely original character right now and describe them briefly. It doesn't even have to be human!
(brain fart again… yeah, shows how amazing I am lol)
