For the fic writing meme: 2, 3, 15, 38 :)
2. Is there a trope you’ve yet to try your hand at, but really want to? - I have trouble understanding what a trope actually is, but probably I’d like to write something really romantic? I started with Geralt/Regis in “Appearances”, because the fandom is a bad influence on me, but I’d like to expand it and make it more steamy ;)
3. Is there a trope you wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole? - I don’t like story retellings. Like people write the same story we know from a book or a TV show, then change one detail (add a character for example) and then basically copy the whole story, dialogues and all, with that one detail changed.
(I really hope I understood the question properly :) )
15. If you could choose one of your fics to be filmed, which would you choose? Probably “Appearances” :). For a shorter story it would be “The Jump”, as it was playing in my imagination like a movie when I wrote it.
38. Talk about a review that made your day. - the first time @calyxestra mentioned their fanart for “Appearances”. Oh my God, that was The Moment. But every nice review is awesome, more people should try it ;)
Thanks for the ask :)
