Writing Questionnaire

tagged by @thevikingwoman​ and @pikapeppa​. Thank you!! <3 

Short stories, novels, or poems?

Short stories, both to write and to read. I am shit at poetry lol, and while I love novels, my heart lies with the careful brevity and condensed beauty of the short story.

What genre do you prefer reading?

My favorite genre to read is probably a strange little genre called Domestic Fabulism. It’s mostly short story writers in the 60s-80s who weren’t quite writing Magical Realism, but not quite Realism either, and their stories were often confined to the home, family, and domestic sphere. As a genre, it lives somewhere in the Slipstream. My favorite Domestic Fabulists are Joy Williams and John Cheever.

What genre do you prefer writing?

Magical Realism, for sure. It’s distinct from fantasy, because the setting tends to be more mundane. I like settings that are like our world, but the rules are just slightly different. I’m not much of a high fantasy writer or reader. I always need things to be grounded somehow in a reality that I know and understand.

Are you a planner or a write-as-I-go kind of person?

I used to be very very “write as I go,” but after writing The Dead Season, I have learned that some planning is necessary. I don’t tend to outline extensively or write down my plans, as that always derails my projects. I like to invent as I go, but I now like to have stable plot points or scenes in place ahead of time. How they play out is up for interpretation, but some landmarks are, I think, very helpful.

What music do you listen to while writing?

No music. I like silence when I work. I tend to listen to a lot of music though, when I’m not writing. I like to make playlists for my stories, and listening to those playlists when I’m not writing helps me live inside the story all the time.

Fave books/movies?

Favorite books are probably...Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry, Tender Morsels by Margo Lanagan, and The Road by Cormac McCarthy. There are a million books I love to death, these are just the first three that come to mind.

Favorite movies are all over the place idk lol. I like old movies like Bringing Up Baby and Casablanca. But I also really love the Coen Brothers--No Country for Old Men and Fargo are my favorites.

Any current WIPs?

Yes. Too many lol. My most active WiP right now is probably my RDR2 fic A Funeral. I’ve also got my HZD WiP, Zero, that I wrote like 30k words in before sort of losing my footing on at the end of the summer :-/ I also have a bunch of DA WiPs, like Unsigned and The Chronicles of Revasan Lavellan like who knows what will happen with those. All my wips can be found at AO3.

If someone were to make a cartoon out of you, what would your standard outfit be?

Leggings, a massive baggy sweater, a scarf, Ugg boots.

Create a character description for yourself:

Uh, okay, here: She was feeling tired with her hood up. She had not yet acclimated to the morning properly. The neighbors had been texting each other about getting together for breakfast and she does not understand how some people can just socialize constantly, all the time, and not get sick of each other. Her child and her husband just used scissors to cut open one of his squishy toys. They spilled these squishy green orb things all over the shower and became very excited. She still has her hood up. 

Do you like incorporating people you actually know into your writing?

No. I have taken lots of inspiration from people in my life but it’s always so heavily mixed in with invention that any noticeable resemblance usually disappears entirely.

Are you kill-happy with characters?

No. I hate killing characters. I am trying to become better at allowing stories to unfold into dark places, though, because some of my favorite stories are those in which the hero dies at the end. 

Coffee or tea while writing?

Depends on when I write. If I write at night, nothing. If I write in the day, I like coffee more than tea.

Slow or fast writer?

I’m usually quite fast. When I’m working, I’m very fast. Like I can write a lot of words very quickly. Lately, my overall productivity has waned, but I blame that on a.) being pregnant, b.) the school year, and c.) needing a bit of a break after writing all 400k words of TDS (plus thousands of words in supplementary one shots and also Teen Wolf) in less than two years.

Where/who/what do you find inspiration from?

Anything? A song lyric, a passage from a story, a random scene, a real person, a word, a fuckin color, idk. 

If you were put into a fantasy world, what would you be?

A near-sighted banker’s daughter who grows up to be a schoolmarm, idk lol. But what would I like to be? A magical scholar, for sure. Just research all day, wearing a big robe with big glasses. 

Most fave book cliche? Least fave book cliche?

I don’t know about books but I was just talking to viking yesterday about my favorite movie cliche, or trope, which is when the soldier goes off to war. At this point, it is quite a Nicholas Sparks staple trope, and I find these movies to be terrible but I always cry. I love it so much. I loved Call of Duty: WWII so much because it was all these soldiers off to war, and the main soldier, Red Daniels, would write letters home to his pregnant wife. I can’t handle shit like this. Or that one Nicholas Sparks movie with Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfried, and he goes to war and then comes home and it’s all a struggle and all stressful and she’s been taking care of his sick father and I CANNOT DEAL WITH IT I CRY SO MUCH.

In terms of cliches, or tropes, I hate: I really don’t like quirky families in which everyone is magically special. I don’t like young heroines who always seem to know what to do, and who seem to exist seamlessly without average teenage faults and internal conflicts. I don’t like “hip” male characters who are only self-effacing. I hate romanticized male jealousy in writing as well.

Fave scenes to write?

Long conversations in which underlying themes and characterizing factors are revealed. I like writing scenes in which characters tell each other stories or memories, which later open doors into bouts of expositional storytelling or backstory. I like writing exposition that foils the main outer story in some unexpected way, too. 

Most productive time of day for writing?

Whenever I have time lol.

Reason for writing?

I don’t know, I always have. It’s just sort of my instinctual way of processing what happens to me and how I understand the world.
