Why did you start writing?

Pick a fic of yours and summarise it in the most ridiculous manner possible.
If you could live in any AU trope, which would it be?
If you write smut, do you take inspiration from other adult media?
Lots of mangaka have a little character that represents them. What would your little character be? (Ex. The author for Sailor moon uses a rabbit.)
Share a snippet from one of your favorite pieces of prose you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.
If your fics could be magical spells, what effect would you like for their magic to have?
Turn one of your fics into either a limerick or a haiku.
If you could write the sequel (or prequel) to any fic out there not written by yourself, which would you choose?
What’s your favorite writing trope? Why?
If you could give one fic a cover like a book, what would the cover look like and which fic?
Write an alternative ending / alternate ending summary to [insert fic title].
Share a snippet from one of your favorite dialogue scenes you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.
What is something that someone has said about one of your fics [or, your writing] that surprised you? (e.g. something you didn’t realize about your work until someone else said it).

What is the funniest tag you’ve tagged a fic with? Why?
Is writing your passion or just a fun hobby?
Do many of your fics take place in the same season? What is your favorite season to write about?

Do you daydream a lot before you write, or go for it as soon as the ideas strike?

For the @writing-wednesday event
If you had to pick just one, what would be your favourite word, and why?
I'm torn between "venomous" and "thorn"!
They're both such heavy, dark and powerful words in my opinion.
Like "venomous" >>> "poisonous"
I DON'T KNOW HOW TO EXPRESS IT PROPERLY, I JUST WOKE UP HAHA! BUT BASICALLY THOSE TWO ARE MY FAVOURITE WORDS!
