MEME!
1. What led you to write?
Books. Books books books. As long as I have read, I have admired authors. And as long as I can remember, I have had stories in my head. A lot of them were a bit.... inappropriate for my age, but they were really interesting. One day I kinda just sat down to write them out.
2. When did you start writing?
I said previously that as long as I can remember, I have had stories in my head. That is true. Wheter it came about through my toys or my dreams, I always had some story I was adding on to every day. But I think I seriosuly started writing in seventh grade when my teacher made us write short stories. I will forever thank her for setting me on this path.
3. What does writing represent in your life?
It represents my dreams and imagination thank you very much.
4. Are you happy with your current style?
Yes. There are a few things I want to advance on, like not being super detailed and then get sparse in the details and.... and... yah.
5. Do you do editing?
I try, but I miss over a lot of things. Especially when I have been looking at the same short story for about two or three days straight with little to no break.
6. Do you read about writing (creative writing books, grammar books...)?
Sort of. When I do, I read a lot about the character creating process. I love to see how other people do, and there is this really great book I have been flipping thorugh about the types of personalities all characters can eventually fall into.
7. Favourite genre?
I really don't have a favorite genre. It will depend ranging on my mood. Like for a while, all I would read was murder mysteries, and then for a while before that all I would read was romance. And now I find myself on some sort of fantasy kick on accedent. I am enjoying it though.
8. Favourite author(s)?
As of late I have found the old Greek and Roman poets very appetizing. I can't really say I have a favorite author though.....
9. Favourite book?
Montmorency: A theif, liar, and Gentlemen? hands down.
10. What do you prefer to write?
I have dabbled a bit in everything really. Nothing is out of my reach. I do admit though that detictive stories are a bit hard. I have touched a lot of fantasy reality, ( like in
The Goldfish Prince) to just plain reality (
The Audition, and
Grown Ups Know Best). And then I have submerged myself into a sci-fi/fantasy story with my best friend, though it only touches on sci-fi and is mostly fantasy. And even a sub plot to that has hints of those mystery storys!
I suppose I write a lot of fantasy and reality though....
11. Is there anything you can't write?
I have a bit of a difficulty writing straightforeward mysteries... other than that, I think if you give me time, I can set myself in any genre and gooooo!
Oh and after a disturbing run in with a series........ I don't think I will ever be able to write vampires.
12. What is the weirdest thing you have ever written?
Weird how? I can't really say.... you tell me that......
13. Choose a topic: love, death, friendship. Now write a couple of lines about it.
I've been dead before
now I ask for nothing more.
14. Do you think you have influences from any professional writer? If so, which ones?
if I do, I don't mean to. I mean sure, I have gotten inspiration after reading before, but never really tried to emulate the writing stye of anyone....
15. Worst book you have read so far?
I am really lucky that through my fifteen years of life I have come across few books I would dub as bad. I have to say though, the
Twilight series is pretty horrible in my opinion.
16. Why is it so bad, in your opinion?
I can't say she didn't try. The book was
almost good. But looking back on it, it wasn't very well written at all. All her main characteres were kind of flat and one dimensional, only being able to focus on one thing at a time. And she normally didn't even give the stories a plot untill the last five chapters.
17. Choose one of your characters and describe them in three words.
Hm.... who to choose.I'll choose one you guys know.
Kin:
kind, gentle, protective
18. Does your character feel alive?
To me, he does. What about you?
19. Could you kill this character?
Well, you can assume that becuase I did I can.....
I felt really bad about it though.....
20. Do you hate any of your own characters?
No, not really. Even if a lot of them are jerk faces, I love them because that is how I wanted them to be. Like Erin. My fay, ass raping pirate captain. heh... he is fun.
21. Now, let's be honest. Every writer has their own favourite creation. What's your favourite story, out of everything you have written/planned to write? And character?
A lot of people like
A Goldfish Prince for some reason, though I don't think that is my best creation by far. My personal favorite is
The Audition though.
And my favorite character has to be X. You guys don't know much about him, but he is..... epicly important to me.
22. Have you ever abandoned an idea for a story? Why?
Sort of. I have set ideas aside for remaking, but abandon? not relaly.
23. Have you ever deleted a whole piece of work? Why?
No, because no matter how bad it is, I can learn from it.
24. And finally: make up a completely original character right now and describe them briefly. It doesn't even have to be human!
Roman is a young man that has been exiled from his and. It was not that he had done anything wrong, it is just as a child the people are given names from the great divinity, and their names mean what it is will happen to them in their life. So Roman was doomed to roam forever. His parents were heartbroken hearting about this, and tried to prevent it at all cost, hiding him away from the world his own life, but when he snuck out one day he found himself in a huge mess caused by a little theif boy named Theafen,a nd he was to blame. It was pretty bad offense, so he was exiled to roam the land, and Theafen ends up helping him out becuase he feels bad for ruining his life, so bassicly two little twelve year old boys are wandering about for the rest of their lives....
