1. How did you come up with your user name and what does it mean?

I'll need to have a conversation with my 12 y/o self, lmao. I just came up with it? I thought it was cute to put together panda from the galaxy or galactic panda. Since I used to be (still am) interested in astronomy and astrology a lot and my favorite animal is a red panda.

It used to be Blow Me Away with 4,870 but I've deleted it and now it's Ride Me... Like a Car... a JinKook plot what plot/ without plot kind of crack-ish with 814.

7. What AU do you find yourself writing about most?

Mostly artists au or criminal au, sometimes pwp.

8. How many friends do you have?

Around two hundred and something.

9. Is there something you'd like to write about but are afraid of people judging you for it? (Feeling brave? If so, share it!)

Nope. I am not afraid of writing whatever it is I feel like writing. I'm a shameless author.

10. Is there anything you would like to be better at on AFF? Writing, graphic design (posters), replying to comments, updating regularly, etc..?

I would say replying but I always do even if a late reply. Right now I have to reply more or less 50 blog comments and like 16 chat replies... So I'd say updating for sure.

11. How many subscribers do you have?

4,100 unique subbies :) love you babes

12. How many stories have you posted online to this day (finished and unfinished)?

Here in AFF? 38 but most are unlisted. In overall, 149 if I count other sites.

13. How many stories do you have saved in your writing program?

756 that's because I have every single story from ever since I started writing fanfic when I was 12 y/o

14. Do you write down story ideas, or just keep them in your head?

Write them down so I don't forget.

15. Have you ever co-authored a story?

I have, multiple times.

16. How did you discover AFF?

I really dont know ... I just one 31st of October happened to find it and poof!

17. Do you consider yourself to be a popular or famous author on AFF?

Nope.

18. Do you have a nickname or fandom name for your readers?

No but they all call me mom or mama xD

P.s. I love that they know better than to use Japanese honorific on me. It's just as annoying and cringe worthy as author-nim, author-ssi and unnie.

19. Was there an AFF author who inspired or encouraged you to write?

The authors who have inspired me are: FishMeAnEXo/Hyperion her stories were amazing and they took me like right at that moment everything was happening. I felt transported into another world.

Kaspian/undead stories made me feel their emotions, and that's a lot to say. I'm an unemotional reader. Her stories had her voice and I could hear it; definitely a very unique writer. Sadly, they aren't in the ficdom anymore.

SheWolf94 damn! Her characterization it's on ing point. I am xiuhan shipper she knows that but I feel with her stories that hunhan love each other too and it makes me believe in polygamy. She has even adviced me on how to write hunhan for my mystery box challenge back in 2015 bc the odds were kind of against me and that was the pairing I got. 

London9Calling she's this author that thrills you with her stories and you never ever know what she'll come up with next and I love that about her. I've read Masquerade so many times now and I still get excited.

There are more I just don't remember right now.

20. How many karma points do you have?

I used to have 7860 but I've donated them and now I only have six hundred and something.

21. What writing advice would you give to a beginning author?

Practice, read and research.

Practice makes perfect.

When you read you expand your grammar and vocabulary.

Research is important babes. You can't write about historical samurai and call them ninjas from Russia. Not unless it's a crack fic.

And most importantly believe that your story is the best fic out there regardless of the features ones. Cause no one will ever believe it as much as you would. 

#FunFact: not all featured fics are good, like not all hidden gems are bad.

22. Do you plot out your stories, or do you just figure it out as you go?

I plan but there are scenes that take life on their own and I end up writing exactly everything I didn't planned and it turns out well.

23. Have you ever gotten a bad review or comment on a story? If so, what did you do?

Yes. And it was confirmed by third parties that reviewer did not read the story and searched up other reviews and reworded them. Haven't trusted any other reviewers anymore since then.

24. Is there a certain type of scene that you have a hard time writing? (action, , etc..)

Nah, I'm good.
 

25. What story(s) are you working on now?

Only Heaven Knows and しょうがない (Shoganai) both stories require a lot of emotional connection from my part. Though I'm more concentrated in Shoganai because I've been really looking forward to write it (since 2015) and it's only now that I started to write as I feel more comfortable with the whole parenting issue. The story will be emotional and I'm confident you'll get at least a little bit touched. It's emotional level will probably reach something similar like Blow Me Away the Yixing x OC that made a lot of my readers emo because of Yook Yerin's death, lmao. Should I bring it back? Hmmmm... I think I'm going to reboot the fic and then bring it back.

26. Do you plan your next project(s) before you finish your current ongoing story(s)?

I always do lmao and it has become sort of a bad habit.

27. Do you have a daily writing goal set for yourself?

Yes and it depends on the length of the fic. Sometimes 100 words a day if my chapter length is 1,200 or 3,000 words a day if length is 16,000+

28. Do you think you've improved as a writer since you first started?

Oh, I have. Trust me.

29. What is your favorite story that you've written?

Probably "My Flower Boy Neighbor is a Prince" it's a Royal!AU that I wrote for my Japanese readers (back in novelist.jp (KAT I SEE YOU)) where Heechul was ofc a prince and Hangeng was very much interested and cue to healthy cliché galore.

That's where my fave quote comes from "Self-aware is knowing that you're pretty, confidence is saying you're prettier than Heechul. We both know that you're below his level." -Kim Kibum to Kang Hyosan

I feel like I should transliterate the fic so you guys have the opportunity to read it. It was used to be the go to fic back when I was 14 y/o xD 

30. What is your least favorite story that you've written?

"Duvet" or "La Petite Mort"... idk I think I could've done better with those pwp

31. Where do you see yourself (as a writer) in 5 years?

I never thought about it but I think I mostly would stop... Idk.

32. How many upvotes do you have?

Idk like 300 or something lmao. I had more but I've been deleting fics.

33. What is the easiest thing about writing?

Writing and coming up with ideas.

34. What is the hardest thing about writing?

Updating. Sometimes I have it already written I just don't find the time to proofread and post it.

35. Why do you write?

Nowadays to escape university stress. But in reality it has always been my little comfort world. I used to get so excited when I would come up from my school and sit down and write that new idea I was harboring throughout the day.
