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.
