Omg you wrote one fic that I did not expect at all! Wooow, it was my favorite fic this fest. SOSOSOSOSOSO GOOD. YOU'VE WRITTEN IT SO AMAZINGLY! THANK YOU
thank you. I think I know which one you're referring to. tbh, I didn't expect to write it either. thank you so much for liking it. it was such an interesting way to write and explore the main relationship in that fic but also the other ones that get mentioned in it. <3
How do you find the time to write us so many great fics 😭 But thank you!!
I really try to write every single day, it's not always a lot but I tend to try to write, edit and altogether work on my stories at least a little bit every day.
Thank you so much for liking my fics/my writing. ❤
Just started reading, but I am pretty sure that 'no strings attached' is yours😭
it does have a lot of my fave tropes and usual tags, doesn't it? ^^
you+ no strings attached=🤝
okay, let's see:
canon compliant aka idolverse
friends with benefits
mutual pining
porn with feelings
power bottom/service top
...fair enough, I get why someone would think this is one of my fics 🤭
omg what???? SO YOU'LL BE PARTICIPATING WITH SIX FICS???
I am trying to get them all done in time but yes, I am participating with six fics (I was one of the people asking whether there is a limit for claiming prompts because I didn't want to take anything away from anyone) ^^
four of my claimed prompts are complete, two others are wips (out of these two one is almost complete and the other is halfway done)
I will actually be VERY shocked if that isn't you because the first writer who came to my mind was you. It will be very interesting to see indeed. Have you btw read any of the fics?
Thank you - like I always say, that's such a huge compliment when someone reads something and thinks of me.
I have read some of the fics but I won't tell which ones (it would make it too easy to guess which ones are left aka which ones are mine)... what I can say for sure is that I'm so incredibly proud to be part of this writer community and fandom as a whole, there are not only so many talented people around here, they are also so kind and nice to others/each other. I feel truly welcome in this fandom and I am happy to be part of this writing fest again. <3
You've worked so hard gosh, I will say that 'we spend the day arguing' is one of them<3
thank you - this year, there were so many great prompts (or ones I couldn’t say no to since the prompts are great every year) ^^
...and, well, maybe. it's so cute to read my name linked with this story again and again, the tags really are a lot of the ones I usually use, though let's wait for the writer reveal (you and some other readers might get a bit of a surprise) ^^
The arguing fic is yours❤️
I know me writing frenemies to lovers MinKey has kind of become my brand... but is this fic really mine, let's wait for the reveal shall we ^^
Not the same anon, but can you tell me how many fics you wrote this year? I'm struggling over here lol
I've been hinting at having written and submitted more than one fulfilled prompt and I don't want to make it too hard too guess, so I'll be honest: at this point, I've submitted four stories and I am working to finish two others before the extended deadline - it’s more realistic that in the end it'll be five fully completed fics because I don't know if I'm able to finish the last one. ^^
I think I've figured you out (so5) hehe <3
thank you dear anon for trying to match me as one of the writers and one of the fics written for so5 ^^
now I kind of want to know which story you think is mine, though it will get revealed soon enough (insert "Oh, I'm curious, yeah!" meme here)
Hiii!! I hope you're doing well ^^ I just want you to know you're amazing and I read all your MinKey fics so many times aaaand I hope you have an amazing day!
hello to you as well (and a very happy pride month). ^^
thank you so much. it means so much to me to know there are people who like my stories, enough so to read all of them for one pairing. that's such a huge compliment to hear/read. thank you. :)
I hope you have a wonderful day as well. <3
Do you like to listen to music while you write? And if so, do you listen to the group you're writing about or do you go for a theme?
just a heads-up, in the middle of answering this I noticed just how long my answer has gotten (I'm kind of sorry for rambling so much but also, thank you for asking about my writing process. it means a lot to me.)
yes, I do listen to music while I write: no joke, I've literally got a yt channel for the playlists I create while writing (some serve the purpose of getting a feeling of the general mood of some of my stories, some are meant to kind of describe the individual chapters of multichapter fics, etc.)
I've got a playlists from when I was writing my Minkey Good Omens AU - it's called 'angel/demon au - mood/inspiration playlist' and contains edits from the original show and said show's main couple, there's also some songs that remind me of an angel and a demon falling in love (there's themes like forbidden love, star-crossed lovers and being in love but choosing not to act on it to safe oneself from the heartbreak before it even happens, etc.).
for one of my stories, I have a writing playlist as well as an official fic playlist for said fic. the songs in both playlists aren't necessarily all the same ones.
inspired by my Taekai fic 'the bet', I've created a playlist containing every song that gets mentioned in the fic itself (in a way, these songs even kind of describe the development of the story as well as that of the relationship between the two main characters).
the length of each playlist depends on how many songs I think fit the story.
for example, my Namjin fic 'keysmash' has a playlist with just six songs while I've also got a playlists with pre-made playlists (aka those yt videos that are already made up of different songs), so in a way there are probably a few dozen songs in that playlist.
for my current fem-Jeongcheol fic, I've created a playlist that's meant to be the setlist of GIRLNee (there are mostly just live versions of the songs that are part of the setlist in the fic so that I might be able to actually capture the vibe of these songs actually being played live and in concert)
to answer your second question (and I'm kind of sorry for how long this answer is going to be), I don't always listen to the group I'm writing about. sometimes, like I've said already, I go with a general mood which I want to capture in a certain scene or chapter. sometimes I much rather write while listening to something instrumental.
at other times, the groups I'm writing about aren't even part of my writing playlists at all.
all in all, what I listen to while I'm writing really depends on what I want to write.
GIRLnee more like SHEnee (your fem-svt fic is so fun, im excitedly and patiently waiting for more of all those creative and horny ladies)
I know GIRLNee is literally what a huge part of the fandom calls their girl versions but the pun with SHENee is incredible. I like a good pun after all. ^^
thank you, it's also a lot of fun to write. I've got an outline and a rough idea of where everything is going. there is going to be so much worldbuilding and so much backstory to some of the main relationships. I just like this chaotic bunch of fic writers (and their supportive fic reader friends) so much - once again, this is one of my stories that is basically a love letter to the queer people I know irl as well as to the fandom friends I've made online (and have also in some cases had the chance to meet irl).
Who is your favourite musician?
like, as in on top of the list of many amazing musicians I know and listen to?
TBH, this is a really hard question... though, I'd say out of all artists, it's probably still the answer I would have given as a teen: SHINee and Taemin as my ult bias - though at this point, I don't really have just one bias in SHINee anymore (I love all five of them)
Also, among others, Muse and Linkin Park.
Do your friends know too much about your hobbies?
most of my friends share my hobbies, such as playing D&D. other than that, my closest friends all know I write (mostly E-rated) fanfics. one of my oldest friends since childhood sometimes beta-reads my fics and we help each other out when writing some scenes. I don't know if that means they know too much about my hobbies. but I for sure know that I trust them and their opinions a lot when I ask them about my writing and how to improve it.
