hiya. i don't really blog much but i like doing these kinds of things so i decided to do one. tagged by ari < 3 (kinda late, sorry)

1. How long have you been on Asianfanfics?
three years on august 1st. whaaaaaaaaaat.

2. How many stories have you written?
maybe like, 5? i never really finish any of my stories. majority i don't post on the internet. : ) 

3. What is your favorite fanfic that you've read?
probably neverland by alevuy95. it's so heartbreaking and uGH ; ~ ; really well written, too. the way the author describes everything is just oN POINT. heaven is a place on earth with you by lunathunderhead is a close second, though.

4. What do you love seeing in stories?
light comedy! i really love when authors add in little funny lines or when the characters say something sarcastically. and good character development. if the character stays basically the same throughout the entire fic, it's kind of boring to me. seeing them grow and change as the plot progresses makes the story more interesting and realistic, in my opinion. 

5. What do you hate seeing in stories?
when the female character is really weak and cries in every chapter. i prefer stronger female leads. she can have her weak moments, too, but if she cries and runs away at even the littlest things, it bugs me. and also, too much drama. some drama is fine obviously, but not too much. OH AND WHEN AUTHORS PUT RANDOM KOREAN WORDS IN THEIR STORIES. LIKE, NO. STOP. PLEASE. 

6. Name three things you love about Asianfanfics.
1.) i've met really great people on here. 2.) reading other fanfics exposes me to new writing styles, and inspires me to write. 3.) it gives me my daily fanfic fix. :D

7. Name three things you hate about Asianfanfics.
nothing, really. everything about aff is great. ( : 

8. What is your favorite pairing to read?
BAEKCHEN!!!! there is seriously a lack of baekchen fanfics. i also like kaisoo and baekyeol, occasionally i read exo x oc. OOOH CAN'T FORGET ABOUT EUNHAE. #forevershipping

9. What is your favorite genre of story?
angst, romance, high school/college au. (is that a genre idk)

10. How often do you go on Asianfanfics?
i only go on here to read, so almost every day. 

11. Who's your best friend on AFF?
ari. :3

12. Who is your favorite author?
i don't have a favourite. 

13. Where do you come from?
my momma's stomach. ( ; aka canada. LOL.

14. If you could change anything on AFF, what would it be?
nothing, really. but i'd like if there was an app ~

15. What is your biggest peeve?
when people only comment, "update soon!!!!", "update please!!!", "UPDATE NOW OR I'LL KEEL U (not really)". i like insightful comments, ones that actually talk about the chapter/story and provide feedback and their thoughts. 

16. Which group do you mostly read about on AFF?
exo, because there's a lot of really good exo fics out there. ;~;

17. What is your favorite narritive to use in your stories?
first & third. i like using first because i can really write about the character's feelings in-depth. third is also nice because you get a view of everything.

18. What is your most disliked sort of story?
i don't really have one because i read any kind of story. but i guess female idol x male idol. i'm okay with male idol x oc though.

19. What age are you?
14 on july 13th. : ) 

20. Who the hell paid you to take this quiz if you did?
no one. i wish someone did, though. i need money, i'm broke $$$

21. Got any tips or methods for newer amateur writers or those of us who looking to improve? Like establishing proper chracter build up or a way to project a persona or overcoming and obstacle?
write about things that can relate to your personal life. that's what i do a lot. because since you've actually experienced something like what you're writing about, you can put more feeling into it and make it more realistic. you can make your characters relateable, and that can make your story tug at people's heart strings. and read a lot. you can get inspiration from other writers. oh, and don't go crazy over big vocabulary words. you can write something well even without huge words. but keep in mind that vocabulary is still important. use it to enhance your writing, don't just throw a word in because it's really long or complex. ( : 

22. Where do you go to find good fanfics?
i look on listography.com. people make fanfic recs on there and that's where i find majority of the fics i read. and there's fanfic rec tumblr blogs. basically i just search "(group name) fic recs" and it pops up LOL.

Tag people to take this quiz as well. And add a question onto the list.
no one lulz. but if you see this, consider yourself tagged ~

my question: in your opinion, what factors make a fanfic good?
