🎶🙋‍♀️🥺💖

🥺: Oh, boy. There are most of my characters interact, and I like to create their feelings more realistic and impactful to their family/friendships.

What's impacting me more from my WIP is the bitter connection between the father and son. Not long ago, I made the first draft of my latest chapter for my original character paying his visit to see his father one last time. One of his father's crimes was domestic violence, which Le forced his son Wang not only to make him a student as a flawless warrior, but he abused him once his son never liked what his dad did to bully anyone, even his own students.

I kept thinking about a heartwrenching scene that did make me reflect on them most of all: in the beginning, they were a happy family until a complicated crime went down south which Le never did anything wrong. It's a long story from their backstories, but I can't share this spoiler.

I do have a few characters that I am related to their personalities. While I am good at angst and friendship, a main character of mine will encounter one in future volumes.

🙋: I do, not gonna lie. My friends in real life I hang out with do read my fics. As much as they inspired training in a martial arts class, I wrote my first fic for my teacher and my companions. We all are fans of KFP (Kung Fu Panda). Now the second book (I am currently writing) for my cousins (they are my sisters we grew up with each other) and my grandmother. They do not know yet, but someday I will, as the sequel's hidden element presents something that each of us souls means in our hearts.

🎶: Oh, yes indeed!! There are like mega lists I wish to list all that I jam while writing. Classic rocks at first, then on youtube if you see videos of several-hour themes like melodies, meditations, writing, etc.

During writing an action scene, I use Snyderverse Adrenaline Cut (pieces of music from Man of Steel, Batman v. Superman, and Zack Snyder's Justice League), any rhythm music that maintains the pacing of the action sequences. And those will be looping when I am at the climax!

For sad scenes, I would find a few that can let me manifest in my characters going into difficult paths, and dramas.

Writing something calm, I search for Chinese melodies as I am currently in the Kung Fu Panda world, writing quotes at first before describing visual scenes. I also found music for villains' purposes while writing from their perspective or about them.

There are several, but these are the links I recommend for writing and inspiration as well.

💖: This is a very good question.

Ever since I was in high school, maybe around junior or senior year, while having a new journey of writing, I started a very first fic (which, to be honest, I was terrible at grammar) when I thought of my favorite cartoon movie, featuring my childhood heroes Charlie and Itchy from All Dogs Go to Heaven. I used to write an old fic before but lost my inspiration, so I scrapped it (I still have All Dogs Go to Heaven fic in my vault).

At first, when a teacher I knew said that writing is hard, she was exactly right that when you write a novel at first, there are always going to have mistakes here and there, but coming back to revisit your drafts for correction is a must. But still, even writing a book is a hobby for fanfiction (or work if you are publishing your original works with your editor or beta readers, receiving lots of money, and having your constant readers from around the world), it is challenging.

Not all of us are gifted writers (unless you are a popular horror novelist who wrote 2000 words a day), but we all like to become authors, each of us to share incredible stories. At first, FanFiction is where I started there, doing my best as I may be a good novelist as that does practice my writing. Not only the website but reading books that Stephen King said is a tool for the best use of writing. And I strongly agree. Reading books, including good fanfiction stories, sharpen your mind, even keeping your words flowing like wine. While there is also complex words in books, you wish to know, Google is all there for dictionary websites. Research is your best friend!

Merriam-Webster

Dictionary (My preference) they have their app included on either Google Play or Apple

That's all I can answer questions, including links for musics! Thank you for asking four questions, Shey! Time for me to get back writing KFP fic! Have fun listening the links!
