32, 33 and 35 from this asks game

Hey friend thank you for the ask !! Sorry for responding so late to this one, the past two months have been really busy

32 - What is a line from a poem/novel/fanfic etc that you return to from time and time again? How did you find it? What does it mean to you?

There isn't really a line I return to, however there are certain scenes where I will go back to again and again because they evoke a distinct feeling or a period of time. For example this gahan fic, the first line of the last scene, where gaon wakes when the rain falls in the early hours of the morning, while they're in a tiny safehouse somehow brought back memories of when my mother took me with her to France when I was 3yo (she was interning at a hospital and couldn't leave me to anybody back home). The only thing I remember from that time is the fuzzy feeling of being awake right before the sun rises, with the sound of rain falling outside

33 - Do you practice any other art besides writing? Does that art ever tie into your writing, or is it entirely separate?

I draw !! I mean I used to ? I've been drawing for a long time but have not had any time to dedicate to it since february last year because I began a very intense internship. then i enrolled into grad school and it's been even busier. Might link my previous art blog here some day :') It does not really tie into writing for me because I only recently started trying to write ff, as tdj fan community is so nice and creative, and because I felt I needed an outlet for ideas if I couldn't draw them. Tbh I also think it's because I feel intimidated to draw for tdj as my style is more anime-like and it's super hard to translate that well when drawing from live action media (all the tdj artists i've seen so far are doing so great tho it's all very cool)

35. What’s your favorite writing rule to smash into smithereens?

I'm actually not sure ! I'm not a native speaker of english it's like my 3rd language, so I think I lack a lot of the nuance in how to wield it. when it comes to crafting a story, I think I start writing down things before I figure out what exactly I'm trying to convey. Probably why I rarely get further than plot bunnies :')))
