Writer Meme

1. Tell us about your favorite writing project/universe that you've worked with and why.
A.L. High is my favorite because it's the one I've been writing for the longest so If eel attached to all the characters.

2. How many characters do you have? Do you prefer males or females?
Wow, I have over 20. I think I like them equal, they both have their unique traits that I like.

3. How do you come up with names, for characters (and for places if you're writing about fictional places)?
Usually I just choose names I like.

4. Tell us about one of your first stories/characters!
Well my first original story was probably Crazy Daisy, omg that was crazy! All of the characters were named after flowers and based after animals. The main character was obviously Daisy, She had a best friend called Dandelion, she liked this guy called Aster. It was insane.

5. By age, who is your youngest character? Oldest? How about "youngest"?
My youngest characters are Willow and Finn from A.L. High, obviously they are not main characters and my oldest is their grandmother, who I never actually wrote about but she is a character. I don't get the lats question though.

6. Where are you most comfortable writing? At what time of day? Computer or good ol' pen and paper?
I am most comfortable writing on this computer whenever, I'm not very good at writing with my hand.

7. Do you listen to music while you write? What kind? Are there any songs you like to relate/apply to your characters?
Not usually, sadly I don't really listen to music much other then when I go to sleep. I have a bunch of songs that I feel relate to my characters actually.

8. What's your favourite genre to write? To read?
To write I like writing mainstream fiction, and to read that too but different from what I write.

9. How do you get ideas for your characters? Describe the process of creating them.
I usually plan my story first then I think of characters, and for my character I usually get inspiration from lot's of places but mostly they just pop up in my head I don't really know how.

10. What are some really weird situations your characters have been in? Everything from serious canon scenes to meme questions counts!
The craziest thing was probably this reality tv show meme I did once, that was really crazy but fun. For canon, IDK, I usually keep my canon scenes pretty sane.

11. Who is your favourite character to write? Least favourite?
My favorite is Fedora from A.L. High, when I write her she just flows, I hardly have to think she thinks for herself, lol. Least favorite is probably all the backup people to be honest, I hate to say this but most of the characters from A.L. High were added in later and they are just not that much fun to write cause I don't know them as much as the first characters I had.

12. In what story did you feel you did the best job of world building?
A.L. High, this is basically my only story btw.

13. What's your favourite culture to write, fictional or not?
I don't get this question...?

14. How do you map out locations, if needed? Do you have any to show us?
What? Oh I don't really map stuff out, kekeke. But that gave me a really great idea so I might do that later.

15. Mid way question! Tell us about a writer you admire, whether professional or not!
Probably Laurie halse anderson, she wrote some of my favorite books. Also Melody Carlson, I just love her books. 

16. Do you write romantic relationships? How do you do with those, and how "far" are you willing to go in your writing?
Yes I do, though I'm not very good at writing romantic interactions. I'm not willing to go very far either, kekeke.

17. Favourite protagonist and why!
Fedora again, wow. I love her.

18. Favourite antagonist and why!
Okay I'm going to put Harriette here, because in my NaNoWriMo novel she is sort of like an antagonist.

19. Favourite minor that decided to shove himself into the spotlight and why!
Karina is the real minor who pushed herself in because I just put her in my NaNo novel because I needed someone else to be running for homecoming queen and then I ended up likeing her enough to make her a real character, but I also feel like Bentley is too because He was just going to be fedora's step brother in the start but I fell in love with so I wrote more and more about him.

20. What are your favourite character interactions to write?
Bentley and Fedora or Sacia and Fedora. Fedora's pretty great with everyone but these two are really great. I like writing people who banter a lot and they really do since Bentley is fedora's step brother who she doesn't like and Sacia is her best friend who isn't that easy to get along with so they fight a lot and that's cute.

21. Do any of your characters have children? How well do you write them?
Well other then the parents no, and they don't really count because they're just there so that the main people have parents.

22. How long does it usually take you to complete an entire story—from planning to writing to posting (if you post your work)?
Well it matters how long because for my blog I post little stories and those usually only take a day but with longer stories it takes me a few days or months.

23. How willing are you to kill your characters if the plot so demands it? What's the most interesting way you've killed someone?
I've never killed off a character. I would be willing to if the plot demanded it  and as logn as the character isn't important and I don't care about it.

24. Do any of your characters have pets? Tell us about them.
Well, no. None of my more main ones do and maybe the other ones do and I haven't planned them in yet.

25. Let's talk art! Do you draw your characters? Do others draw them? Pick one of your OCs and post your favourite picture of him!
Yes I do draw them, This is my favorite picture of Tamarai that I drew.

26. Along similar lines, do appearances play a big role in your stories? Tell us about them, or if not, how you go about designing your characters.
Yes they do actually al my characters get designs before I write them. How I go about designing them? Well usually they have designs in my head as soon as I create them, it just happens.

27. Have you ever written a character with physical or mental disabilities? Describe them, and if there's nothing major to speak of, tell us a few smaller ones.
Yes, Tracy knight has OCD and AeGuk stutters, I might have afew others. IDK.

Teen Top's album is out for pre order today, and if you pre order it from kpoptown then you get some free stickers!
But anyway, I can afford it! though I wish I had one dollar and eighty cents extra, then I could also buy the poster....
But at least I can afford the album, and that is all that really matters. I am so excited to buy it!
They also came out with a teaser today for the music video and it was perfection!
Fangirling majorly here!
Nobody is awake though, well mom is awake but she is reading so it doesn't really count.
Esme comes back in a week, can't wait!
I made all my Bratz look beautiful yesterday, I also dressed Meygan in a new outfit, she looks awesome! If I had a camera I would take pics of them to post here but, oh well.
I guess that's all, I really just wanted to write about Teen Top. Because no one else is awake so I can't tell someone about this!
Also, look at this I'm writing in the blog again so soon. I think it's because Esme is gone, if she was here I would have just told her all this because she is always awake in the morning.
Anyway, now I guess that's all. Maybe I'll write later, who knows.

this blog has had too many names

I don't know why I suddenly have the urge to blog, but here I am changing the name of this blog one more time, and hopefully the last, I don't see why I'll ever need to change it since it does say that I can post whatever I want in here. It could be random recipes (I'm thinking about posting random food related posts, maybe not recipes), stories, even pictures if I ever get a camera. Oh and of course random blog posts.
So yesterday was new years eve and today is new years, honestly I cannot believe it is already 2012. Time moves too fast. Last night we had a "party", it was just family. We ate snack foods and played Apples to Apples. Diana made this delicious buffalo chicken dip, it was great. Though I am not supposed to be eating spicy foods.
Oh and we went shopping yesterday, that was fun. I bought a three pack of Lip smackers in Starburst flavors. It had Mango Melon, basically the only reason I bought it, Strawberry Banana, such a classic Starburst flavor, and Royal berry punch, which smells so good!
I also got three packs of hot chocolate, Mint, Raspberry and Supreme Chocolate. I had Supreme Chocolate with my breakfast today.
I also got a pair of glasses, can't really describe them but they're super adorbs.
And last but definitely not least, I bought the Wild West Meygan Bratz doll. She was a last minute buy and I almost did not get her but I am so glad I did! I don't really do much with my old Bratz dolls, which is why I almost did not buy her, but I really really love her. Meygan has always been my favorite Bratz, probably because she was my first Bratz doll. I still have the jacket that she came with, maybe I'll put my new Meygan in it...
I did get out three of my old Bratz dolls, my favorites. Though I think one of them is actually Lia's.
Shrug
I made them all beautiful and now they are sitting on the desk with me, well I'm not sitting on the desk, kekeke.
So I am super happy with my purchases.
But that is not all! I plan to purchase Teen top's new album when it comes out, with is why I saved twenty dollars. I hope it's not more then that.
Well I guess that's all, to be honest I probably won't post in this blog for a while. I never can actually keep up with a blog about myself.
Though I might post a drabble really soon, but I am not promising anything.
Hope you enjoyed this rare blog post about myself.

“Grief, a type of sadness that most often occurs when you have lost someone you love, is a sneaky thing, because it can disappear for a long time, and then pop back up when you least expect it.”
- Lemony Snicket

Note: I saw the quote on Tumblr one day and just got inspired to write this. It is really short but hope you like it.

She had thought she was over it by then, after a long summer vacation in Hawaii where she could clear her mind she thought she was truly over everything that happened last year.
So when she entered the hallway of school she didn’t expect the the sudden pang of sadness she felt when she saw him with her, the other girl.
She didn’t expect the anger she felt when she saw the other girl cuddle up close to him, or when she kissed him before running off to her class.
She didn’t expect the tears when he saw her and blatantly ignored her.
She thought she was over it, she really did.

Note: I wrote this a long time ago actually, I was just reading through my docs and found this, I thought it was actually sort of good, so I wanted to share it. So I changed my old blog to this blog to do so, I figure I will write other pointless stories like this that I might want to share, so here you go.

People say we control our own fate, but I’m sure I don’t control mine. If I did would I be sitting here right now, waiting for the principle to call me in? I don’t think so. What did I do? I have no idea. I sit there quietly, thinking of the worst case scenarios when she walks in. She walks up to the desk and asks the Secretary something I cannot hear, she looks annoyed with the answer. She turns around with an exasperated sigh and sits down next to me. I watch as she digs through her purse and pulls out some lip gloss and puts it on, why she cares about looking good right now, I have no idea. She turns her head slightly and looks shocked as she realises I was here. I quickly look away, hoping she did not notice me watching her.
“Dana?” She asks, like she doesn’t know who I am.
“Yeah?” I ask.
“Oh, I’m just shocked to see you here. You’re such a good person, what could you do that could get you in the principle office?”
I laugh, because she looks genuinely shocked, “I don’t know.”
“Oh. Well. Same here.” She said, tossing her blond hair over her shoulder.
I remember when she told me she hated people doing that, as if it made them look better. I look down at my hands, hoping she wouldn’t talk to me again.
