An introduction to me

Writer tag

I was tagged by the amazing JaydenStryder so here goes

1) When did you realise that you love to write?
I've had to write stories for school ever since I can remember and I always enjoyed that but the first time I wrote something of my own accord must have been about a year and half ago (I'm terrible at estimating so please don't hold me to that).

2) What is the first story you wrote here on Wattpad?
That would be Stolen Relic which is a Loki fic that I started but never for last chapter 4 which seems like a pattern. (I just checked and I've never written more than four chapters of a fic wow I'm a terrible author). Anywho I would advise you not to read Stolen Relic because it's extremely slow and boring and nothing happens (which is also a trend in my writing) and the writing style is just really painful. I might try to pick it up again at some point but I should probably unpublish it for now. Oh well.

3) What is your favourite genre to write in?
That's hard considering I've only written two original (non fanfic) things and one was for a competition and had to be based on the eruption of Vesuvius. That was quite fun to write but I can't really say I like writing historical things because I would find it really hard to stay motivated writing something from an era I wasn't interested in (not that I stay motivated anyway). I'd probably have to say some kind of fantasy? I'm not too sure to be honest. Can we just count fanfic as a genre?

4) Who is the person you love to rant to about your books? (If you have someone like that)
I know I probably annoy Clintasha-Skyeward and An-Idea-Not-A-Band  all the time by talking about how I'm never going to end up finishing my books if that counts. The same goes for imnotmcripromise and marveltwihardphan2 sometimes. I talk to JaydenStryder about our collab as well but I know if I needed to rant to anyone about a book I could go to any and all of them and they'd get really annoyed because they'd never hear the end of it.

5) What's your typical chapter length when writing a story?
Hahahahahahahaha I don't even know how to answer because my chapter lengths vary from zero words to 3.2k words but I guess a sensible answer is probably somewhere between 1,000 and 2,000 words.

6) What story that you've written here on Wattpad or not on here are you most proud of?
I feel any answer I give would be invalid since I've never finished a fic. I'm not sure if this counts but I've got a couple of plans for future fics that I'm really hopeful for. I've told myself I can't start a new one until I've finished an old one though so it might be a very long time.

7) Have you ever written a collaboration story with anyone?
JaydenStryder and I are working towards a collab so that should be in progress fairly soon and I have to say it's super fun.

8) If you answered yes to question 7, what is it and is it on Wattpad?
I'm not sure how much JaydenStryder wants to reveal about it but it's a fictional universe fic and no it's not on here yet.

@ anyone reading this seriously if you're even here I think you're amazing

I love you guys 💚

10) Favourite book on Wattad?
Oh okay you asked for it.

Obviously A Splitting Of The Mind even though it ruined me, I really love November 1st as well that was super great and Spectrum I love Spectrum I will never stop talking about Spectrum you should all go read Spectrum I'm looking at you M.

Basically anything by potatoyoghurt (yes, I'm generic. No, I don't care) who's username is raughy now and I'm too scared to tag them even though I know they wouldn't notice.

11) What's your favourite place to write?
Somewhere quiet. I've tried to write while listening to music and I know a lot of people do that but I just can't concentrate if there's anything else going on.

12) How do you motivate yourself to write?
I don't. Is that an okay answer?

If I force myself to write when I'm not feeling it, the writing will end up really bad and the words won't flow in the right way and the rhythm will be awkward and it'll just sound wrong and if it sounds wrong then I don't enjoy writing so yeah that's an abridged version of why I never update.

13) What's the biggest distraction for you when you're writing?
Anything that notice that I can see, hear or touch.

Anything that I notice.

Anything.

14) Tell us one thing you aspire to do/write/ accomplish as a writer.
Finish a book.

Actually that's a bit ambitious.

Get past chapter four of a book.

I tag everyone I've already mentioned/tagged.

I hope you all kind of know now why you should never expect me to update anything be chase you'll inevitably be disappointed.
