cimoreneposted to fellowshippers. am eyeing lotrips coyly. i now hate its guts, but suppose i should.
eh. i still hate orlijah, everyone. this is strictly a present for kk. a bitter cold wet pwp, whoo! summary: a storm. nc-17. warm.
best time:
late, late at night often seems the best, or when i'm trying to write something else. i'm thinking, "duh, why... does... austen... do THIS in the last chapter" and all of a sudden lyrical sentences are popping fully-formed into my head. or, of course, if i'm too far away from the room to remember it any more when i get there, i'll get a whole fucking paragraph.
got a specific playlist?:
tori amos, queen, garbage, no doubt, and britney spears mixed with various foreign pop and one-shot guilty pleasure songs by people like mikaila and leann rimes.
prose easier than dialogue?:
in general, no; dialogue writes itself in a certain mood, but prose is what comes to me out of nowhere to get me started.
enjoy writing sex scenes?:
yes, although i worry about writing them too similarly.
most troublesome words:
i overuse certain ones. cold, hard, pulse, blood. stuff like that.
do you use stickmen?:
wtf.
favourite character pov right now:
i'll just say third person because i'm too charitable to interpret that as referring to a specific person. my preferred is third person so thoroughly limited it's nearly first person and the narrator is really the protagonist.

3. extreme pickiness when it comes to fiction. i'm too listless to wade through looking for the things i'll like, so i avoid it.

Ya know you're good even when you're not completely into what you're writing. Is there any way to encourage more of this? I can send chocolate.
