I tag: whoever wants to do it 

---

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

I needed an account just to read and was (still am) a die-hard Inspirit so I just went with it. I do want to change it though.

2. Which is your most subscribed to story?

My Eunji/Hoya one shot 1 Backwards, 4 Across, 3 Down

3. Why did you pick your user photo/thumbnail?

Uh because Baekhyun has been ruining my life lately and Take You Home was amazing.

4. Who is your AFF bestie?

I don't consider most of my AFF friends, more like acquanitices simply because we never speak so...

But out of the ones I do speak to, YifanForever and TeaMinT are the ones I always turn to because they've got my backs....mostly...

5. Is there a fanfic that you keep going back to read again and again?

Of course!

Korekrypta's The Blood Brother Code (I've read it 5 times?) and amber_rose's Rewind 2003 (I've read it 3 times)

6. How many stories are you subscribed to?

278 and I'm pretty sure I haven't read half of them.

7. Which AU do you find yourself writing the most?

Uh...I don't know? I haven't written much and out of those that I've written, they're all over the place. I have one high school, two college, one detective and one office/working.

8. How many friends do you have?

56. I'm not good at making friends.

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!)

Abusive relationships (YifanForever said something similiar). I wrote a one shot where Yixing was the victim in abusive relationship, and I want to write something that expands on it to show how much of a vicious cycle it is (for both males and females), and that it doesn't always involve physical violence.

I'm just scared that I might end up romanticizing it in some way that wasn't intended and people reacting harshly to that.

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

A better writer.

11. How many subscribers do you have?

Unique: 165 Total: 175

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

Published on AFF: 6 (I took one down to edit it)

Published elsewhere then took down: roughly 7

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

Uh like 2? I don't write something new until I finish the one before unless I decide to write two at the same time.

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

I am forgetful, so I write them down.

15. Have you ever co-authored a story?

Co-author for beta? Yes. 

Co-author for writing? In the works of one.

16. How did you discover AFF?

Through my older sister.

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

Are you kidding of course not.

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

....no.

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

Korekrypta. (It was YifanForever's answer too) Her writing style and passion for writing inspires me quite a bit. And the fact that she replies to every single comment despite getting SO MANY is so admirable. She's actually part of the reason why I got into Exo as well lmao

20. How many karma points do you have?

In the 2000's.

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

This is something I had to teach myself to follow tbh. Keep writing. Just because there aren't people who are commenting (or subscribing) doesn't mean you give up. If you started writing, that meant that you started because YOU wanted to. If you were willing to spend so much  time and energy into creating something, follow through with it unless you completely lose motivation/don't like the story anymore (because it's up to you).

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

Bit of both. I write out important details of the plot (kinda like the plot diagram), and then I write down important info about my characters. The stuff in between is just figured out as I go.

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

 

Haven't written enough for that, so no.

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

. I don't even know the beginnings on how to even start that. 

Also, it makes me uncomfortable :/

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

Gambling With Death. It's a Yixing x OC mystery romance fic written for Korekrypta's challenge.

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

I plan them, but don't start them.

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

I try to do 500 a day since I tend to keep adding details (such a change from a few years ago when I couldn't describe stuff for my life) but nowadays I've been busy with finals prep so haven't gotten a chance to.

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

Yes.

Yes.

Love: An Unusual Emotion is the epitome of that growth considering I went through and edited it 3 years after writing (it's still pretty bad haha)

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

Since I haven't written many, I'll say Gambling With Death,

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

Love: An Unusual Emotion

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

Hopefully editing my own original novel :)

32. How many upvotes do you have?

26

33. What is the easiest thing about writing?

Plotting but not writing.

34. What is the hardest thing about writing?

Not having enough time, brain power, or ideas to write.

35. Why do you write?

It's fun.  It's enjoyable to do.  I'd probably lose my mind if I couldn't write.
