General intro:
I love reading. I love writing. I love vivid imagination, long stories, short stories; but most of all I love plot and relevance. I try to stick to what I love in my own writing and I love feedback. I hate flames, though. They serve no purpose other than to hurt the author's feelings and that's really not necessary. I have written fan-fiction for quite a few years now and though I've yet to publish something that might actually make me some money, that's not what I'm writing for. I love giving vent to my imagination. It's like therapy, I guess.
What do I write?
Hmm! What don't I write should be the question. I do write in a lot of different fandoms and I have a forum and a website behind it to prove it. :) Supernatural, Star Wars (only the old movies count for me), X-Files, Stargate SG-1, Farscape, First Wave, Hercules - The Legendary Journeys, The Magnificent Seven, Aliens, Harry Potter to mention some of them. Lately I've started taking an interest in Van Helsing as well. Just call me versatile. :) Mostly my stories involve angst and hurt/comfort, some are romantic, some are scary, some are gross, some are a bit humorous. I love to write and my writing always reflects how I feel at any given time. :)
What inspires me?
Feedback:) Okay, cheap shot, but feedback does help me write. If nobody comments on what I write, I lose interest in it after a while. But, in general, anything can inspire me. I wrote an independent little fic once because a neon tube embedded in the ceiling of a tunnel under the road was flickering. I see someone or something pass me by and it inspires me. I always need to have pen and paper handy to write down ideas, I've got tons of half-finished stories stashed away on my harddrive. So, yeah, pretty much anything inspires me when I'm not too tired. :)
Real life does get in the way sometimes, though. I have been called prolific in my time and I have bursts of activity where I write up to 50-60 pages in a week. But then there are other weeks where I write nothing at all.The ideas are there, but not always the time. I have a at times demanding job and during those periods where we're busy at work, my creativity suffers. June/July are usually the worst months for me to be creative. I try, but it doesn't always work. :) So, if I post something and it's not updated within a week, that probably means I'm busy at work.
What turns me off?
Quite simple. Nasty comments on stories. Why do some people have to behave like stupid bitches that have nothing better to do in life than treat others like crap? I mean, is it too much to ask that we all get along? Anyway, before I myself enter bitch-ville here, let me just say this. I love constructive critisim. If someone points out a mistake I missed, I'm grateful. But if someone threatens me or tells me they hate my story without backing it up ... well, that's when this girl gets nasty. Now, you may wonder why I've chosen to add this to my profile and it's because I've seen too many flames in my life. Not directed at me per se, but at some aspiring author who has quickly withdrawn from any kind of creative outlet because some braindead bimbo or halfassed jock has the gall to tell them they suck and should never write again. I've had that happen to me as well and, quite honestly, I did consider never writing again. That guy really messed me up for a bit. I didn't write for about a year. But someone poked me and begged me to continue and I got over it. I am not by any means suggesting that this world couldn't do without my writing, but I love to write and there are people out there that actually seem to enjoy what I do. So, because some freakazoid thinks I'm not doing a good enough job, I should let others down? Not gonna happen! I enjoy writing too much and I get great comments, which I'm eternaly grateful for. So, flamers beware! I bite back. :D
What genre won't I write?
Quite simply, incest and slash. The first because the idea just grosses me out (sorry, guys, but it does), the second because I have nothing to base it on. Hence I don't endeavour to write something I don't understand.
What genre will I write?
Anything as long as it doesn't involve character-death (and if it does, I will always come up with a way to bring'em back alive). I have ventured into NC-17 territory and even R-rated territory, but do not do so very often. I'm not entirely sure I'm any good at it, you see. :) I'm a hurt/comfort fan, I admit that openly, and love to write and read stories in that category. There are scenes in some of my stories involving non consensual sex, but it's never women being at the receiving end of that. Don't ask why. I have no idea. So, expect anything except sexual relations between siblings or father/son, father/daughter etc. That's not my thing.
