Interview with a Writer

tysm for the tag @thefeatherwrites ! ily 💗

When did you start writing?

i’ve been writing little stories all my life, but i first started properly plotting/writing full ideas around 2016

Are there different themes or genres you enjoy reading than what you write?

angst. when it comes to writing, i’m almost entirely wholesome fluff- even when i try to write angst it always ends up being soft and sweet in the end. but i eat up reading peoples’ angst fics like there’s no tomorrow!!

Is there a writer you want to emulate or get compared to often?

other than some of my more talented mutuals?? ummm idk actually. i’ve always loved tui sutherland’s writing style (although that may be driven somewhat by childhood nostalgia). casey mcquiston is another author who’s writing i adore- i’d love to write like them.

Can you tell me a bit about your writing space?

anywhere and everywhere. in the car, in my bed, cuddling on the sofa with my dogs, etc. it does make it hard to focus when i’m not in a quiet environment, and i’d love to have a dedicated writing space, but right now i just don’t have one TwT

What's your most effective way to muster up a muse?

i’m literally always thinking about my fics, possible aus, and all that. sometimes re-reading favourite fics, or watching good television, can help me stay inspired !

Are there any recurring themes in your writing? Do they surprise you?

all of my fics involve a healthy dose of fluffiness. often with a liiiittle bit of angst mixed in, just to keep it interesting, but yeah. lots of wholesomeness.

it is a bit surprising to me, mostly because i’m not the most cheerful person around. most people who know me irl expect me to write sad stuff. perhaps fluffy work is my form of escapism

What is your reason for writing?

i just love it! i have soooo many ideas in my head and i adore getting them out of my head and sharing them!! even if not a lot of people read what i write, i appreciate the few that do and ily all so much 💗

Is there any specific comment or type of comment you find particularly motivating?

all comments tbh!! i don’t get a lot so when i do i cherish it. but the ones that always stick out are the ones that are loving and show that the commenter really paid attention to what i wrote. i’ve gotten a few longer, detailed comments before and those always make my whole week!!

How do you want to be thought about by your readers?

i mean just being perceived is pretty neat! but if my work inspires others that would also be cool as hell. so i suppose inspiring? one day i want to write something worthy of having art made of it or that people wait for updates for. i want to be valued if that makes sense.

What do you feel is your greatest strength as a writer?

setting an emotional tone. i’ve been told im good at getting across the vibe a scene is supposed to have, or the tension in the air etc.

How do you feel about your own writing?

i’m certain it’s not very good- i always overthink and am a perfectionist. i can’t live up to my own standards, and especially after sharing a community with such talented and amazing people i feel a bit like i don’t measure up.

no pressure tags for some of my favourite writers!! - @girl-named-matty @audrxyweasley @therozpoz @myokk @blueraineshadows @cuffmeinblack @kaidynsarell

Get your Tumblr 2022 Year in Review →

[evenstarfalls]

Finished my goodreads challenge for the year and there's no way I could put together a top 10 bc I read a lot of good books so I'll just do a recap/roundup I guess!!

Kind of started off the year with a reading slump, something I'm hoping to change in 2023. Didn't get through a book til March, when I discovered VE Schwab through Vicious and blazed through her adult books. Was a wild few weeks. I also read Cinder's Adventure in March, which was a wild ride let me tell you.

In April I read the last Wings of FIrst book, flames of hope. I also watched Netflix Heartstopper, which is not a novel, but I immediately read the graphic novel, watched it a few more times for good measure, and then read all her books. Loveless was actually a reread, but I did enjoy them.

That also kinda kicked me into an agressively looking for queer books to read phase. Made me realize how badly I needed them, I guess. Cinderella Is Dead, Evelyn Hugo, Cemetery Boys, all of Casey McQuiston's books, and a handful of others were read in May and June and July. Also read the first two ember in the ashes and continued my Schwab marathon with Gallant, Monsters of Verity, and the first cassidy blake and everyday angel.

This was also the year I reread Percy Jackson, which was a lot of fun. Got through the whole first series and half of HoO over the summer. I still need to finish that, actually. I also reread Renegades, and Vicious and Vengeful in June. (2nd of 3 times reading Vicious!) It has been an exceptionally reready year.

This summer my local bookstore had a summer reading challenge. There were like 25 books to read and I got through about half of them; fewer than I'd been shooting for, but still good all things considered. Most of them were lame. some were books I've already mentioned that were coincidentally on the list. Best book I got out of that? The Count of Monte Cristo. I read it in August, and it was definitely my longest book of the year.

This fall I also fell into a reading slump, busy with school. I read the next two cassidy blake books, Cursed released and I got to meet Marissa Meyer (!!!), I read Schwab's ExtraOrdinary and hated the art, Ninth House, but wasn't that many by my standards. Sad times. College is unfortunate like that sometimes.

Just this month I've been able to get back into reading more. I reread Six of Crows, read Children of Blood and Bone and the rest of Everyday Angel, They Both Die at the End, The Girl from the Sea, and yes. These Violent Delights (the gay one). Jumped in at the last minute as one of my top books of the year. I am thinking about it right now and I don't think I'll stop anytime soon.

Tonight I finished reading Vicious for the third time. I liked it that much. Definitely my top book of the year, and the only one I feel like I can definitively rank...it gets messy after #1. My sister bought me a signed copy for my birthday, and I can't wait to finally get it in my clutches next year.

And next year? I'm hoping to finish my read/reread of the Riordanverse (I've never actually read the last 3 or 4), reread Crooked Kingdom and Vengeful, and maybe some Marie Lu, read The Archived (I've been avoiding it because idw be through with schwab), Warcross, Children of Virtue and Vengence, and the last two ember in the ashes books. Also planning to get through a bunch of other books that I own but haven't read because reasons and reading slumps. Excited for Hell Bent, The Stolen Heir, Stars and Smoke, With a Little Luck and, of course, Threads of Power. I miss my babies and I want the book title.

On the off chance you read all this rambling, thanks bestie ily

[chaseschases]

how come it’s always “ilyy” and never “I thought, this is the most incredible thing I have ever seen, and I better keep it a safe distance away from me. I thought, if someone like that ever loved me, it would set me on fire. And then I was a careless fool, and I fell in love with you anyway”

[finelinevogue]

Tokio, Dehli, Sao Paulo and Busan for the ask game?? (@ink-fireplace-coffee)

how is your day going lil sibling???

hey carmen!! thanks for the ask <33

Tokio: has any of your OCs a phobia? which one?

i don't think any of them do, actually. liam's a little scared of the dark, and amber and vita both hate hate hate closed spaces, but i think that's it!!

Delhi: what is the most important monument in your OCs city?

ooh i'll answer this for elemental!! there's a monument in the crown city, of the first traveller to the kingdom. he was the guy who brought colonisers to the kingdom and the first one to imply that magic was not a good, natural, beautiful king. the founder of the current ruling family, if that makes sense. he's kind of a dick.

answered sao paulo here!!

Busan: favorite authors? (can be other writeblrs or famous writers)

!! my favourite authors are probably madeline miller, dan brown, enid blyton, roald dahl, casey mcquiston, and so on. favourite writeblrs:

sorry i have a bad memory so i only remembered parts of these and i did look all of them up 😳

1. You will be alone always and then you will die. — Richard Siken, Litany in Which Certain Things Are Crossed Out

2. Henry kisses his mouth over and over again and says quietly, “You are good.” — Casey McQuiston, Red White & Royal Blue
