writing meme: about me

I wasn't tagged but got this from @fandominstability

1. How did you get into writing fanfiction?

I have always written stories since I was a little kid. I think my first fan-related fiction was related to Lady Gaga but I really got into fanfiction about a year later when I was a Bullocker (Sandra Bullock fan) and my friends in that fandom introduced me to wattpad and all the Sandy fics on there.

2. How many fandoms have you written in?

If we include Gaga (though that was just one little story based on her song titles), it would be her, Sandy B, Agent Carter (Marvel), Married with Children, a cross of SOA and AHS, and then finally a lot of American Horror Story. So that makes 6 I think?

3. How many years have you been writing fanfiction?

I think I wrote my Gaga story when I was 11 or 12 and got into Sandy fanfiction when I was 13 so 12 years give or take (with very long breaks)

4. Do you read or write more fanfiction?

Definitely write because for my comfort ship me and my bestie are pretty much the only writers currently. I do sometimes indulge in reading fics of Angela Bassett's other characters though but I write more stories than I read tbh

5. What is one way you've improved as a writer?

I'm not entirely sure but I think I've gotten better with removing some awkward terminology. There was also a time where I RPed with a friend who influenced me to become overreliant on describing women in same-gender relationships by their hair color, which I finally just dropped because it sounded very awkward and repetitive and also doesn't really work for Black characters.

6. What's the weirdest topic you researched for a writing project?

I think I have researched many strange topics but the weirdest might just be how mermaids have sex two nights ago lmaoo

7. What's your favorite type of comment to receive on your work?

The excited type that conveys they would love to read more. I guess sometimes it's easier to share if you actually know someone is there who wants to read it. Also love comments on specific lines or references. But just in general ANY comment that isn't unusefully negative or homophobic (yes I've received one of those 😭) makes my day.

8. What's the most fringe trope/topic you write about?

Not sure exactly what is considered fringe but I could imagine my period fics qualify for it? Whenever I'm suffering particularly badly on my period, I like to give one of my comfort characters their period so the other has to comfort them. It tends to calm me down in the hurt/comfort sense.

9. What is the hardest type of story for you to write?

I think the type of stories that deserve multiple chapters but they could go so many different ways that I struggle to pick one scenario to elaborate on. Examples for this are the details of Elizabeth's and Ramona's first night together or how Ramona's parents reacted to her dating a woman. So many possibilities.

10. What is the easiest type?

I love to drabble down sweet moments of fluff, smut or angst. I think little moments of fluff and hurt/comfort are the easiest for me. I think I most commonly write singular scenes based on random ideas.

11. Where do you do your writing? What platform? When?

I write in my Samsung Notes app (which is exclusively dedicated to my fanfiction), then copy the fics into Google Docs to share them with friends or, if I'm really bold, I will publish them on AO3 (very rare). Sometimes I try to cross-post on here (not very successful) or Wattpad (I always forget I have an account there) but it's mostly just AO3. When do I write? When I'm in bed. On very rare occasions I've also written on the train before.

12. What is something you've been too nervous/intimidated to write, but would love to write one day?

The ones that I've mentioned before that I've been struggling with. First meeting/night together, Ramona's parents' reaction, ... I'd also like to continue an AU I started where Elizabeth never dies. But most of all I'd love to finish my main multi-chapter fic which I have so many ideas for and which has a lot of potential but is thus very overwhelming.

13. What made you choose your username?

Both my usernames on here and on AO3 are references to two of my favorite Gaga songs. "You're where I wanna go" is from Always Remember Us This Way and is a reference to the love between Gaga and her fans (and the fact that I have traveled many places for her). On AO3 my name is sohappyiclddie which is the title of my all time favorite Gaga song So Happy I Could Die. It's also very fitting for my fanfics because 1. Gaga plays one of the main characters, 2. death is a major theme with vampires (also on The Fame Monster, the album this song is on), 3. Elizabeth and Ramona make each other so happy they could die (during the good times) mhm mhm, 4. the song has a sapphic theme and my fanfics are sapphic too and so is Gaga and so am I, win win win win :)

not sure who to tag but whoever would like to do this is welcome to, consider yourself tagged!

sorry for the spam i was going through your phirkabhi tag and I'm 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 what does it mean? anyways hi hello I hope you're having a nice day <3

hey we're all subconsciously perpetually eating other people's tumblr bread and wine why sorry? in fact i vouch for people spamming my notifications it makes my blog feel a little less a rubbish bin and a little more a birdhouse so that's nice. and i've adhded again. sorry about that.

ANYway, phir (fir) means again and kabhi (kuh-bhee) means when but language is a woozy thing so when used together phir kabhi generally translates as 'sometime later' and so under it i stash all posts that at the moment are too much to digest or simply uncategorisable if that's a word okay there's a red line beneath so no. but yeah. it's a pile of posts under procrastination :)

also i should've said it in the beginning but hiiiii thank youuu i hope you're having a nice day too <3!!! wishing more of some heartshaped gorgeousness while silently inwardly also yearning for it sgkhg

Summer break

Yes, I go to some places during the holidays, but I’ll also stop drawing digitally, mostly because my computer actually belongs to my sis, and since she’s back from a long trip she has a lot of files to delete and order.

And also ‘cuz I have what you may call an “art block” since my blog got deleted.

Aaaaaaaaaaaand it makes that I can’t draw in another style than the Patte style. Y'know, the one with big round heads and weird body. I’m trying to do normal art again. Trying. Not very successful for now. But eh. I’ll try again.

You may say that I could continue my comics by scan, but since I’m moving the whole summer, eh, I can’t really. I’ll try but there will still be a break some time in August.

If everything���s normal I should get the computer back in september. If not I’ll scan anyways, I’m less afraid of coloring my traditional art now.

And now Imma gonna stop talking unusefully even if it’s what I do best.

Buh-bye!
