40 Questions for Fic Writers (I STOLE IT I'M SORRAY)

40 Questions for Fic Writers 

1. Describe your comfort zone — a typical you-fic.
  A romantic drama or comedy

2. Is there a trope you’ve yet to try your hand at, but really want to?
    A fantasy theme, or supernatural 
 
3. Is there a trope you wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole?
     There's nothing I'm not willing to try. That's how you get better at writing, breaking out of your comfort zone
 
4. How many fic ideas are you nurturing right now? Care to share one of them?
OMG WAY TOO MANY! The main one that's coming soon is MAMACITA. I'm working my off on it so people better like it (just kidding! Not really XD) and I don't wanna give too much info about it, but it's basically my creative action romantic drama adaption of Super Junior's mamacita

5. Share one of your strengths.
    My creative brain 
 
6. Share one of your weaknesses.
    My minor dyslexia and frequent writers block
 
7. Share a snippet from one of your favorite pieces of prose you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.
       Who brought up the dating topic and how could he make it go away? When asked why, he just answered with, Super Junior comes first, he's just too busy, and isn't interested in dating right now. Some days he would forget about her, and live his life in the normal way an idol would. But most days, he'd remember, and the feeling of lonliness would crash down upon him. Whenever someone (whether it'd be Heechul, Donghae, Yesung, or Sungmin, etc) would ask him why he cried through most of the night, he would lie, saying he had a nightmare, was drunk, or just deny the fact he cried in the first place.
        All of the members knew the story. The story Ryeowook had told all of them, when he was ready. They knew about Sungah, how she was his first and only love. Some of the members liked her and wished they could've met her, while others didn't. Some of them actually didn't like her at all, for what she had done to their friend. One thing they all agreed on though, was that Ryeowook should forget about her and move on. Of course, he never listened, and continued to stay single for the sake of her. "I can't get a new girlfriend. You guys come first. And if I do, that's when Sungah will come back, and I want to be with her. I don't want anyone else."
        It was an unhealthy obsession that was slowly destroying him. But no one ever noticed. On the outside, in the public, he presented himself with his bright personality. He was handsome, shy, cute, adorable, even y, and was loved by all. Little did they all know, that when he was at home, doing nothing in particular, Sungah would always return in his mind. He would cry alone, hoping she could see how successful he has become. Was she seeing him? If she did, would she come back? This is why he always kept himself busy with schedules, so his thoughts can focus completely on something else for a while.

 ~Maybe Tomorrow, Chapter 13: News. I enjoy it so much because I edited and revised the crap out of this chapter, I added so much and cut so much stuff. I'm proud of it because of how much effort I put into the whole sequence. (I put effort into everything I write but still. This chapter in particular went through more editing than anything else did)

8. Share a snippet from one of your favorite dialogue scenes you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.
     (OMG HOW CAN I PICK JUST ONE?!)
                    "You look stupid with that on." Heechul scoffed, rubbing his wet hair with his towel.

                "So what? You want me to take it off?" Leenah replied, an attitude in her tone.

                "Well, what?" He responded, shocked and a bit confused. 

                "Never mind, don't answer that." Leenah waved her hand, wanting to just brush it off.

                "Well maybe it wouldn't be so bad if you did." Heechul giggled, which made Leenah throw a pillow at his head.

                "You're disgusting!" Leenah crossed her arms, sitting on the bed.

                "Oh come on, I'm kidding." He tossed his towel to the floor. "A sight like that would blind me anyways."

       Leenah's jaw dropped at his comment. "I'd say the same applies to you then?"

                "Oh really? I'd say not, want me to prove it to you?" He stepped closer.

                 "Please don't."

                "I will take off my shirt right now and prove it."

                "I said no, you idiot!" She threw another pillow at him.

                "What did you just call me?" Heechul crawled onto the bed next to her, getting into her personal space again.

                "You heard me." Leenah looked into his chocolate eyes, that were somewhat dreamy.

        Heechul decided to shake his wet hair, letting stray water hit her all over, making her gasp and push him away.

                "You're no fun." He pouted, sitting next to her properly. He couldn't help but snicker at her defensiveness though, making her grab another pillow and hit him hard on the head with it, knocking him over on the bed, only making him laugh harder.

                "Stay on your own side." Leenah picked up the pillows she threw and put them back onto the bed. "I mean it."

                "I can't say that I can make any promises." Heechul laughed again. Leenah kicked him in return, which knocked him off the bed. "I'm kidding! I don't like this any more than you do."

                "Then do us both a favor and stay on your own side." Leenah settled on the right side of the bed, giving Heechul the left.

                "Fine." Heechul got up and went to his side.

                "Fine." Leenah mimicked, shutting off the light.

18. Describe your perfect writing conditions.
     Ear phones in my ears listening to the playlist I made to the story, snack to eat, and just me getting really motivated. It doesn't matter if I'm alone or not. When I'm really in my writing zone, I drown out all my surroundings, and the music helps
 
19. How many times do you usually revise your fic/chapter before posting?
