4.) How many fic ideas are you nurturing right now? Care to share one of them?

I have a couple actually! One is a Tanaka centric fic with angst. At the moment it’s set as a reader fic but I haven’t really worked on it that much lately. I have a few scenes I wrote out so I wouldn’t forget them.

Right now though, the one most rampant in my brain is a Soul Eater x Haikyuu crossover / AU. I want to make the characters of Soul Eater the adults while the HQ guys and gals make up the student body of the DWMA. I will most likely try to create an OC for it as a love interest for Asahi (cause baby ace needs some love) and a pairing between Death the Kid and Tsubaki. I really want to write this but I’m nervous to because Soul Eater has been done for so long and I’m not sure if enough people would be interested. We’ll see, I may still do it for a small fan base and just because I love the idea so much.

I did have an Bleach story I started but haven’t worked on for a long time with a Renji x Orihime pairing where Ichigo offers to marry Rukia so she isn’t forced to marry someone she doesn’t want to. Planned on drama and love triangles but lost steam on it.

I have another Bleach fic I started that is an AU where the main guys are human and the main girls are supernatural creatures. I was also going to incorporate elements of Black Butler and Supernatural as well but again just lost motivation and steam for it so it’s remained untouched for months and months.

14.) What’s the worst writing advice you’ve ever come across?

Hmmmmm….interesting question. I honestly can’t think of anything, I mean outside of people just being rude when they don’t agree with something I wrote but that’s more a matter of opinion than giving advice. Truthfully, the advice I’ve sought out usually seems pretty good. The most confusing sometimes is “show not tell” if it’s not explained well or used too extensively and the argument of using “said” versus other descriptive words for speech or expression. Again, mostly a matter of preference I suppose.

18.) Do you use any tools, like worksheets or outlines?

For most of my writing, no but lately I’ve wanted to try outlines so that I can make sure my story is staying on track. I’ve had two times (within the same story actually) where when I didn’t outline where I wanted to go I ended up writing myself into a bit of a corner. In one sense, it was good because it challenged me to write better. But in the other, it left the story open ended for sequel…that I have NO IDEA how to handle. Heh heh. So yeah, if I do this Soul Eater / Haikyuu AU I’ll be making sure to do some outlining.

On that note, is that a story you guys would be interested in reading?

Thanks for the questions Rachel Lauren!!
