Amazingly, I was never tagged during the last round of the Lucky 7 meme, but Dan fixed that last week when he tagged me in it. Let’s see what I’m doing: The Rules: Go to page 77 of your current MS/WIP. Go to line 7. Copy down the next 7 lines – sentences or paragraphs…
I spent most of today wondering if I should make a V-day (that will never not mean “venereal” to me) post, and when I decided that I might, I then spent too much time wondering exactly what I would write about – romance? Meh. Hot sexx0rz scenes? Possibly. My cats? Oh my god, yes. Buuuut…
So a common meme I see around is “Teaser Tuesday”, where you post a sentence or two (without spoilers) from the latest book you’re reading. Thought it was interesting until I noticed the “Tuesday” part. WHY YOU GOTTA PIGEONHOLE ME, BROS? I’ma post this meme on whatever day I feel like! :'( I’m actually not…
Leah over at Leah Writes Pretty Fierce has started a short little questionnaire for those of us (or anyone, really) taking part in the latest campaign to fill out so we can all get to know each other. Since I’m taking a break from most real writing this week, this sounded like the perfect way…
30. Final question! Tag someone! And tell us what you like about that person as a writer and/or about one of his/her characters! I’ll do the actual tagging in the livejournal version of this blog. Here I’d just like to say…I am so glad this meme is over. It got really grating and repetitive…and holy…
29. How often do you think about writing? Ever come across something IRL that reminds you of your story/characters? I live and breathe writing, pretty much. That said, EVERYTHING REMINDS ME OF IT, it’s annoying.
28. Have you ever written a character with physical or mental disabilities? No, simply because my characters are usually charged with saving the world, and they have to be petty fit and able. Of course a handicapped world-saver would be interesting, but it’s not something I feel would “work” in either universe (since they tackle…
27. Along similar lines, do appearances play a big role in your stories? Tell us about them, or if not, how you go about designing your characters. I really don’t have a set way of “designing” my characters. They just kinda manifest themselves in the split second they’re created. Sometimes I have a “stock” in…
26. Let’s talk art! Do you draw your characters? Do others draw them? Pick one of your OCs and post your favorite picture of him! THERE ARE NONE. STOP MAKING ME FEEL INFERIOR. >( This meme seriously sucks.
25. Do any of your characters have pets? Tell us about them. Pets are like ghosts in my novels. They’re supposed to be there, until I forget to PUT THEM THERE. Because, usually, they have nothing to do with the plot,and just kinda sit pretty in the background for characters to pet. For instance, there…
