WIP Tag Game
I was tagged by @transboywrites so thank you very much!
1. When starting something new, how much do you know about the story before you start writing?
I prefer to know a lot about the world its set in and the general backstories of my characters. I’m a person that likes plans and drafts for most things, not just writing. I find it helps me with adding interesting detail as I’m writing and also stops me from accidentally writing something that contradicts an earlier section of the WIP.
2. What draws you to your WIP(s)? Why did you choose to write that/those over anything else?
I play a lot of DnD with my friends and as my current WIP started out as an idea for a section of a campaign I was running, I often find myself coming back to ideas for it when I’m playing DnD.
3. Favorite writing spot? Why?
Probably in my bed, wrapped in my duvet with a mug of tea nearby. It’s warm and comfy!
4. Share your favorite line of what you’ve written so far!
I don’t really have one yet, I’m still mostly in the world-building stage.
5. If you had to choose one OC to bring to life as an actual person, which one would it be and why?
Probably Vivian. She’s such a strong, elegant and generally brilliant character and I’d love to have her for advice and support.
6. Are you looking to get published? If so, do you hope to make it a career?
I don’t think I’m good enough to get published but I guess if I ever finished this WIP it wouldn’t hurt to try and get it published. I don’t think I’ll ever have writing as my career though.
7. What’s something you would read but would never write (or the other way around)? Any reason?
I’d read horror or anything else very gory/detailed (like medical scenes) but I don’t think I could write them- it would probably sound too ridiculous and I’m fairly squeamish about that sort of thing
8. What’s something you are most proud of about your work so far?
That I actually get anything done on it whilst also being in my final year at university.
9. Badly describe your WIP(s) in one sentence
Sex, sirens and salacious savagery.
10. Why did you want to be a writer?
Because I enjoy it and I enjoy trying to describe the things I can picture in my head in a way that communicates them to other people.
I was tagged by @lillayalightfoot - I love tag games, thank you!
1. When starting something new, how much do you know about the story before you start writing?
Most of it - I have a plot and a lot of world building ready to go before I really start any sort of draft.
2. What draws you to your WIP(s)? Why did you choose to write that/those over anything else?
The depth of the world, how much I know about the characters, the amount I know about everything there. I don’t know, it’s just grand.
3. Favorite writing spot? Why?
I enjoy writing at any local coffee shop, coffee beside me, and music thumping in my ears. I also write at home, but close enough.
4. Share your favorite line of what you’ve written so far!
I still quite enjoy the one where Kite says she’s named after the bird, not the toy!
5. If you had to choose one OC to bring to life as an actual person, which one would it be and why?
I do love Timethy, though I would also take Damien, Dee, maybe Sam
6. Are you looking to get published? If so, do you hope to make it a career?
One day, it’s just not my main motivation at the movement. But it’s not my career.
7. What’s something you would read but would never write (or the other way around)? Any reason?
Fanfic - I just don’t have the skill for it. I also write but don’t read poetry. I might read next to anything, but not all am i capable of writing
8. What’s something you are most proud of about your work so far?
That I actually do a thing hahaha
9. Badly describe your WIP(s) in one sentence
If you trap kids with magic down a mine, what could possibly go wrong?
10. Why did you want to be a writer?
I don’t think I ever wanted to, I jsut wanted to express myself and this is where I’ve ended up. I love writing, but I didn’t set out to be a writer with intent lol
