ask the author

Last seen at schiarire's:

I want to do a creative/meta meme but there is nothing going around, and it's not like I have that much fic to be asked about*. But ask me writing questions anyway?

*I had to remove that part, it is a dirty dirty lie where I am concerned.

'Writing questions' can mean pretty much anything you want it to mean, my sweets. I have a lot of work to do tonight and I'm going to need something to do in my breaks.

I also have the problem (possibly the point of workshops is to fix these problems, but I feel it would reduce the usefulness of one for me) of being very bad at writing on demand. My inspiration is very random. And sure, I write a lot of good stuff, but if you sat me down and told me to write six pages of SOMETHING then maybe I could and maybe I'd manage three terrible sentences. Depending on whether I had words at the time or not.

Yeah, pretty much. I got lucky the second week. I also know quite a few people cheated and used material they previously had. One friend just submitted three short pieces that had nothing to do with one another. If I'd known I could've gotten away with that, I would've been all over it.
