Writing
- What do you write: (YA) Novels - Your favorite genre/s to write: Fantasy (urban)/paranormal - Do you write fanfiction? Not anymore. When I did I dabbled in Harry Potter, Gargoyles and X-Men amongst others. - Do you write original fiction? Yes, yes I do. - Current project:Bones, a YA paranormal about a dying girl, a ghost boy and a decades-old murder. - An area you'd like to improve in: I'd like to strengthen my third-person writing. I've written first for so long that it's much easier to write. I can just let my character "talk", while in third-person I actually have to do the work. - An accomplishment you're proud of: I have one completed novel (currently in editing before I start querying agents). Writing 80 000 words for one thing is a huge accomplishment for me.
Other
- Hobbies: Web design, reading and reviewing what I read - What's in your journal? Mainly stuff that has been crossposted from my regular site (writing and tech, plus general stuff), and from my book review and discussion blog. - Why did you move to DW? It's a new place to go, it's fandom and user friendly, and it looks cool. :) - Favorite energy drink? Does Coke count? - Anything else? Nope, I think that's it really. :)
