Fanfic meme
Jan. 18th, 2010 09:02 pmI was trawling back through my old entries looking for the one and only spangel fic I wrote and I found an old fic meme I took years back. Thought it might be fun to do it again.
I'm not counting collaborative works here (unless the question asks about it)
Most memorable:
Egads, start with an easy question why don't you. Wow, my most memorable fic ever? Hmm...I suppose Misha Collins Makes A Match for the sheer word length. It kind of broke a seal for me and I can't stop writing long fics now. LOL.
Least memorable:
I don't remember ;)
Your favorite:
Oh, come on. That's like choosing a favourite child or something. Fine, Lost and Found. It was my first slash story and one of those occasions where I just really felt like I connected with the characters. Plus, I must have got it right because the Norrington I wrote in this was pretty much exactly what we got in Dead Man's Chest and I wrote this way before that film even had a title.
Your least favorite:
I don't have a least favourite. I have fics that I know haven't worked so well but I like them all to some degree or another or I wouldn't have posted them
Your most successful (in terms of reviews):
What Dreams May Come
Your biggest bomb (in terms of reviews):
The Luck of the Irish. Zero comments *sob*
Your biggest surprise hit:
Shelter From The Storm. Seriously, my first attempt at mpreg and I was expecting a few of my friends to leave polite comments and that was it
Your biggest surprise bomb:
I wouldn't call it a bomb but I was a bit disappointed Twisted Love didn't get more comments
The theme of your fics:
Happiness. Seriously, I have tried to write angst and it never works. I can do mild doses of angst to keep the story interesting but nothing too epic. And all my fics have to have a happy ending
You As A Writer:
Best moment in your writing career:
Any sort of positive feedback to be honest. Any time I complete a fic I feel good, but knowing other people enjoyed it? Nothing beats that feeling
Worst moment in your writing career:
Some of you will remember the unfortunate incident where I was accused of plagiarism a couple of years back. Seriously, I don't think I can put into words how much that hurt me. Implying that I am incapable of having the imagination to come up with my own ideas is about the worst thing anyone has ever said to me and that's probably the last time I really properly cried.
Easiest fic to write:
Writing is never what I would call easy. Some stories flow better than others but I don't think there's a specific one
Hardest fic to write:
I am looking at the cursed M2 fic again right now. Egads I will be glad when it's done
How long have you had a ff.net account:
Wow, this shows you how old this meme is. I do still actually have my account at The Pit but I never use it anymore. I set it up in Dec 2000 which is before I had an LJ.
How long do you plan to have a ff.net account:
I think I answered this already
How did you find ff.net:
According to the last time I filled this in it was through
flickums
The Future:
Planning on starting a new series?:
I'm not ruling out further exploration of the writer!Jensen 'verse but there are other things I need to do first
Planning on writing a sequel?:
Nope!
Plan on co-writing anything?:
Again I won't rule it out when I get all my current projects done
What genre would you like to work more in?:
One day I will write crippling angst with bonus character death. Ah, who am I kidding? LOL
CLOSING:
What was the absolute pinnacle (as of today) of your writing career:
I thought we covered this already.
What was the absolute worst event in your writing career:
Yeah, we definitely covered this
What are you most thankful for in your writing:
Every single person who has ever done a beta for me and every single person who has taken the time to leave a comment.
