#This is a no season 8/9 hate zone (the characters anyways hate on the plot all you like it deserves it at times)

Finding out people unironically hate John Doggett threw me so hard. Like how are you misunderstanding him so bad. What did he do to you. He's my babygirl. Why are you throwing rocks at my babygirl

20 Questions for Writers

Thanks for the tag @technicallywrite .I've had to try and work out statistics for this!

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

56 at present. They represent my writing from 2019. Previous to that my work was on tumblr or livejournal or not even on the internet!

2. What's your total AO3 word count?

141,077 according the stats page

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Doctor Who, Annika, The Omega Factor, Good Omens but i'm happy to take a shot at just about anything. Even wrote a western AU for dr who at one point. My Star Trek Universe fiction hasn't made it to A03 yet

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Official stats are a little thrown as I am a credited Co Writer on a massive genius Mpreg Good Omens AU originated by @wildphoenixofthe80s and that has a third more kudos than my nearest solo work.

they are :

<a href="https://archiveofourown.org/works/26569630">Come Live With Me, Angel</a> -a sequel to the first tv season.

<a href="https://archiveofourown.org/works/20654522">Love a Genius</a> - a UNIT New Series ft. River Song

<a href="https://archiveofourown.org/works/24170080">Make It With You</a> - an alternative alternative to Good Omens in Lockdown

<a href="https://archiveofourown.org/works/52038229">Old Friends</a> - really this is @turnthefreaking-frogsgay I just provided Wilf's voice

<a href="https://archiveofourown.org/works/18873886">Out of the Wardrobe</a> - One of my earliest fics, an anthology based on clothing through the history of Dr Who

5. Do you respond to comments?

Almost always! Some fics wouldnt exist at all without them. My current UNIT Vampire AU is being deliberately shaped by reader responses, although some of those have come from Discord rather than direct comments.

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

In my opinion it would be the remastered "A Domino of Headstones" which, needs nust, concludes with Sarah Jane's death.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

I really don't know on that front. I like to think <a href="https://archiveofourown.org/works/24594739">"The Littlest Thing Holds Up The World (and the sun is just her smile)"</a>

Which can be read as a standalone but is something of a rollercoaster.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

If I do no one has told me so. I don't think i have the sort of profile where many people care.

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

Yes, although its all very mild if it gets posted ;)

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

Yes, my Sisters of the Unexplained series crosses UNIT with both PRoBe and The Omega Factor.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not to my knowledge

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Into English maybe ;) no, as i said, i'm not high enough profile for that

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

I've been credited as such. I'm a concept guy, with a good handle on character voices and scenarios and so i've helped out friends who have been gracious enough to credit me.

14. What’s your all time favourite ship?

The TARDIS. oh, you mean.. uhm.. not sure i can narrow it down. Probabaly Osgate

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

Five more Conferences with Kate Stewart and one without.

16. What are your writing strengths?

Beligerence? Concepts and voices I think, thats what i'm often asked about anyway.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

self doubt and brevity.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

I've used google translate a few times if i don't know someone who speaks it.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Ever at all was a Blakes 7 / Five Doctors crossover where Avon was snatched from the final seconds of 'Blake' and dropped into the death zone. it was illustrated too and absolutely awful but I was 8.

First thing that turned up online would have been tie in fiction to my local Star Trek RPG group USS Basilisk.

20. Favourite fic you’ve written?

In all honesty once I have purged the plot from my system they vanish from my memory. I occasionally get kudos from long posted fics and surprise myself by going to read what the fuss was about!

If anyone want to say thier faves in the notes, knock yourselves out!

I think I'm supposed to tag some other writers now? I expect anyone I tag will have already done this quiz but at the least i should include ny erstwhile co-authours @wildphoenixofthe80s and @turnthefreaking-frogsgay as they are proper writings who write things.
