@vell-vet Thanks for the tag! =D
Have you ever posted your writing anywhere online? If so, where?
Archive of our Own!! https://archiveofourown.org/users/NineOfSpades/
Also a few other places, but I like to keep those separate, and ff.net has some of my poetry from when I was 15, which I’d rather not share here!
What’s the piece you worked on the longest?
Umm… that really depends on what you mean by “worked on”.
I have an idea from all the way back in middle school that I told to a friend once and she approved, so that’s a thing I might go back to if I feel like it’s viable and I feel like writing it. But I guess I haven’t really worked on it. There’s also a piece from high school that was my first novel idea that might’ve gone somewhere, if I’d been more hardworking and talented, but I wasn’t. It somehow accidentally predicted certain decisions made by MCU and I’m still shocked at how that happened. The first few chapters were written in 2014 but arguably set a year after the 2016 election. So now I can’t publish it without it seeming like overly on-the-nose commentary about current events in media and politics, which is annoying as hell because, hey, my stuff predated all of this chaos!
I think out of all of the works that I’ve spent time on in the last month, though, the story I have with villains trying to save the world is probably the one that’s been active for the longest – maybe 3 years now? It’s still nowhere even close to completion, though.
And the thing I’ve written the most words for might be my current project, a romance about two wlw who can’t seem to figure out that they’re in love with each other even though it’s ridiculously obvious to anyone who sees them – they’re useless and it’s infuriating. I’M infuriated, and I’m the one writing them.
Is there a story you still have in your head but never got around to writing it down?
I write down a few words for every story idea I come up with. There are lots of scenes that I plan out in my head but don’t get around to writing down, though.
Do you fear you’ll run out of ideas at some point?
Every month or so I get a little bit antsy that when I’m forty or something I’ll be boring and gross and won’t have any ideas… but right now I come up with way more ideas than I ever use, so hopefully that’s a good sign.
Have you ever tried to get published at a magazine?
I’ve been published in school literary magazines. I’ve tried for book anthologies and websites or ebooks, but I’m not sure if I’ve tried for official magazines…
