Questions to Authors (taken from yffismydrug)

So, I was getting super bored (though I should be studying :P) and I found this. Since I had some time to kill, get set go!

1. What was your first story? When was it published? What was it about?

'Late Night At Office' was story which brought me into the world of writing! It was published on May 6, 2016... not really old, right? What to say, I'm a newbie *shrugs*. It was a one-shot about how a boss and secretary spend their night at the office and how it changes their life. No, it has no at all (though the title gives that feeling...)

2. What's your favorite story you've written? And what's the plotline?

This one is difficult since I have a favorite one-shot and a chaptered story. But if I have to, it will be 'Forced Marriage!?' since I worked a lot and spend a lot of time making the story. It took a lot of hard work and I think it was worth it. The plotline is that there are two people in love but due to some circumstances, one of them has to marry the brother of the latter. And you know what follows, don't you?

3. Have you ever written for a holiday/special occasion? 

Not really... if you consider an OTP day as an occasion, then yes. I did write one.

4. What username did you publish your first story under?

ELFSonal. That's the only username I ever had and I'm not planning to change it any soon.

5. How many stories do you have (published) on aff? How many are complete?

18 published. 11 are complete... 7 ongoing *sigh* how am I supposed to complete them...?

6. How many aren't published? 

3 aren't published since 1 of them has to be published after I complete one of my ongoing stories, I'm currently working on the second and I totally forgot about the third one so I'm most probably gonna delete that one.

7. What helps you think or inspires you when writing fanfiction/stories?

Many things inspire me. Music and Dramas inspire me the most though.

8. What date did you join aff?

March 22, 2016. Eh... not even a year,..

9. What was the first tag you looked up when you joined aff?

Wonkyu! I joined AFF for that reason.

10. Who are your top three favorite authors, and why?

This is super hard! I have tonnes of authors I adore. So, I'll just choose the authors who write on my favorite OTP the most.

In no particular order...

1. SiwonnieFan - Did I say that I love her stories? Because I really do! Her style of writing is really nice and I enjoy every story written by her.

2. louyixia - She is the author of my most favorite wonkyu story! Her stories are really well described and in detail and I totally love that!

3. wklove - Her stories are amazing! I've read each and every story of hers and I love each one of them.

Special Mentions (because I can't leave these people at all):

sjlover274 - I love his daily updates and the plots he writes are really good. They match my taste a lot.

WonLGWonnie - The 'It's Okay' series is one of my favorites! And the one-shots are pretty amazing as well!

(it became top 5, huh? I can never choose from these 5 authors *sigh*)

And of course there are MANY MANY more authors that I totally adore. It's just that I've re-read the stories of the above authors many times. I love all the other authors out there as well!

11. What is your opinion of kaistal?

I.don't.really.care. If they wanna date and be happy, let them be *shrugs*

12. What type of story are you most in your element writing? Is it something you write often?

Drama (is it even a type?). I like stories which have a little of everything. Some romance, some comedy, some angst. That's what a drama is, right?

13. What type of story are you least in your element writing? 

. I CANNOT write at all. I tried a few times and failed miserably at that. So, I don't even try.

14. What is one thing you hate seeing in comments?

The 'please update soon' comments. I feel as if people aren't satisfied with what I gave them. I know they're really excited about what happens next but I can't think about my story all the time. If I see a lot of such comments, I update slower *evil smirk*

15. What sort of author's notes do you make? 

I sometimes make them short and sometimes make them long. I just give a slight jist of the chapter and some announcements if I have to. I usually try to urke the curiosity of the readers.

16. Name three things you love doing when you write/update:

1. I love reading and responding to the comments. I really appreciate their support and it brings me into writing mood.

2. After writing, I leave it for a day and the next day, I read it as if I'm a reader and see how I would think if I was a reader. If I'm satisfied with it, I post it. Or else, I change it until the 'reader' me is satisfied.

3. This might be strange but I act out the scenes I write. It might be creepy but I really do that (with my door locked, of course!) I keep myself in the character's place and think how they would react. That's why I tend to have a lot of dialogues in my stories.

17. What are you most insecure about in your writing?

again. I just can't write it. I feel embarrassed just while reading it so writing it is out of question.

18. What is your favorite band/pairing/whatever to write about? Why?

WONKYU! I've written nearly all of my stories on this pairing and I totally adore them. They're the first pairing I ever shipped and Siwon is my ultimate bias followed by Kyuhyun... yeah. This OTP pulled me into the fan fiction world AND that's the reason why all of my stories are Wonkyu.

19. And your second favorite? Why?

Eunhae. Though I never wrote about them, I really like this pairing. And they're my third and fourth biases in SJ (I'm just weird, okay?)

20. Name something you see in comments rather often. 

I've just seen this a  lot... 'It was interesting. Can't wait for the next chapter.' Otherwise, my subbies give different responses and I'm completely happy with that.

21. Name a story you've (probably) neglected.

I won't say I've neglected but I'll just say I forgot how I was going to continue the story. It's '30 Days To Find Love'. I had maximum of the story planned out and even completed the chapters but due to some glitches, I lost all of the drafts. And I realized that I actually forgot how the story goes on (since I had them written waaaay back I even published the story. So, maybe that one. And I'm not really happy about that :(

 

Heh.. this was a good way to pass time. People who read it till the end, I guess you got to know a bit more about the author 'me'. Anyway, bye and have a nice day!

Don't worry about it! Honestly I act out my stories to because it gives me a better feel of how it will flow. So hopefully it isn't that strange.
Also Wonkyu ftw
