Where do you publish your work? Usually first to Tumblr, then AO3 (and sometimes Silmarillion Writer’s Guild)
What medium/application/etc do you write in or with? Google Docs (or just a tumblr post on what i think will be short things/ prompt answers) or Microsoft Word, and sometimes when at work I resort to mechanical pencil and notebook paper/yellow legal pads.
Do you collaborate with others? I’ll bounce ideas off friends in the pre-planning stages, but no.
How much editing do you do before you publish? Depends on the work. Sometimes it’s just a quick re-read before publishing, others I edit constantly as writing and afterwards, a rare few I have a beta go over. And constantly re-reading long after I’ve published to correct and edit and re-work.
Do you listen to music when you write? Most of the time, because I’m usually listening to music while at my computer anyway- either my general Pandora station, whatever song I have on repeat at the time, or a few soundtracks (Journey game soundtrack especially)
How do you decide what to write about? Characters I like, characters or situations that bug me because fandom ignores or presents them in a way that irks me, or lines or tidbits in canon that I wanted more info. Fusions with another story, character, or plot that I also like and therefore the challenge of incorporating into the setting.
When do you write? Any time of day when the mood strikes and I have access to writing tools, though generally in the afternoon going into late evening.
How often do you write? I go through inconstant spurts – there will be days where I’m writing constantly in long hour marathons and then weeks where I barely write anything that isn’t work related.
Do you take requests? I like doing meme prompts, so I have a lot of those. But I don’t get enough feedback for full-on story requests.
Is there any genre or type of story you want to write but are hesitant to? I have a long list of stories I want to get to, and I want to expand on writing full-blown romance (and smut). More fight scenes and political theater. But I wish I wrote more straight up humor, and I feel like that is harder to write successfully than angst.
Any inspirational quotes, videos, tricks, articles, etc. that help you stay motivated? Aha- stay motivated? Eh no. Honestly, I never cared about inspiring quotes from famous people (or having role model inspiration figures). Reviews and feedback helps, and spite and anger for stories and things I dislike. And usually when I’m trying to write one story I get the inspiration to start and finish something else unrelated.
