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.
Have you ever pet a wolf?
I kind of did - years ago, during an internship at a local newspaper, we did an interview at something quite like a wildlife rescue center and they had wolf cubs there. they were so cute but I didn't quite dare actually pet one of the wolves, not even the young ones, because of how intimidated I was by their size (even the little ones were really big and tbh, I'm kinda scared of dogs... which is maybe a bit ironic for someone who loves writing and reading werewolf stories)
What was the last song you listened to on repeat?
I've got an entire writing playlist on repeat right now - it's for one of my upcoming fics which deals heavily with LGBTQIA+ topics, figuring out one's own identity, surrounding oneself with one's found family and being able to hold onto one's hope and dreams in even the most dire of circumstances.
The songs from it which I am currently listening to the most are: Hurts - Beautiful Ones, Florence + The Machine - Spectrum, Lady Gaga - Marry The Night, P!NK - What About Us and Adele - Love In The Dark.
What do you think about Bad Dragon?
I've tried the 'generate question' feature for the first time and tbh, this is really random for a generated question but also rather fitting (no pun intended) considering all the things I write about.
for the ones who might not know what this is about, here's a quote from the official website: "Bad Dragon: Custom hand-made fantasy sex toys and dildos" - for the people who aren't really or at all into sex and/or sexual acts with others and/or oneself in general: they also produce other things, such as dice, which just so happen to look really cool.
regarding the topic of fantasy-inspired sex toys: in a way, I guess I've already written a few rather low-key monsterfucker fics (does it even count if it's two monsters or creatures?). so, of course, I guess a question about this manufacturer had to come up eventually.
also, in a way, I think the different creations and sex toys of Bad Dragon can be described as adult-themed art pieces. some don't even look like sex toys at first glance but more like fantasy-themed sculptures one could put on display. I'm sure there goes a lot of thought into the designs of the sex toys and also into how they might safely be inserted into a human's body or otherwise safely used by humans.
on a more serious note and to answer the actual question; I think it's really interesting there's really something for everyone in terms of sex toys and ways to customize them.
hello! my dumb mind was kind of confused with the turn of events from chapter 15 into chapter 16 of forget me not, can you explain it a bit more? you can ignore this if you don't want to ^^
hi, (please don't call yourself dumb, you're not dumb) thank you for asking and please don't worry, I think I've left out some information that would have helped both bsk as well as the readers of my fic without giving everything away already. I think I'll take a closer look at chapter 15 and 16 again to rewrite and/or add some parts. I'm sorry for having caused some confusion there - I'm working on this fic without a beta reader, so maybe I should reread some parts more than others.
In under covers, I feel they already know their feelings and attraction. When we will see them move forward physically?
thanks for asking. what does "move forward physically" mean in this context? I'm not being sarcastic here, since it could really mean a lot, for example: when will they touch each other more openly? when will sn actually allow himself to take a much more active role in their sex live? when will they have penetrative / anal sex with each other?
if one or all of these questions apply: soon. they will get there soon. there's just a few more chapters before they both will finally get to realize what they both want - not just in terms of what they want to do in sexual relationships with men but more so with one another. I hope this helps. ^^
Could you tell us if you have another story with Wsn that you have been thinking?
I'm working on the next chapter of my fic "under covers" aka my 'comphet wsn 3somes' fic. I also hope to finish my omegaverse fic "you're all I crave" soon and after that, I hope to write some wsn fics with supernatural elements - I have a short-ish vampire/human au fic planned that's inspired by the series "mignon" (vampire doctor and human cage fighter). speaking of wsn as supernatural beings, there's the sequel of my omegaverse fic "mating run", which will have wsn as the main couple.
in the future, I plan to finally write a fic which I've been meaning to write for quite some time now - it's going to be called "signed and sealed" (aka it's part 2 of my reverse sugarbaby au / part 2 of ‘the contract’ series).
in a nutshell:
1. under covers (comphet wsn 3somes au)
2. you're all I crave (omegaverse au)
3. untitled fic (vampire/human au)
4. feral hearts (omegaverse, sequel of mating run)
5. signed and sealed (aka part 2 of reverse sugarbaby au / part 2 of ‘the contract’ series)
thank you for asking. <3
Hey!!! I know its kinda dumb but why would jeonghan put an appointment for both vernon and seungkwan at the fertility clinic? Is it 😳😳😳😳 like a soulmate or compatibility thing?? I've read abo before but i don't think i've ever come across something like this. Im sure you are going to explain later but I'm just anxious sorry. Anyways i really like what's wrong with secretary book, verkwan are my beloveds<3333
thank you for asking. <3
it's not a dumb question at all. thank you for being curious about that part. there are a few things which will get revealed later. it's not something bad, so please don't worry.
I really like how a lot of people seem to actually call this AU of mine What's Wrong With Secretary Boo? (which to me was just a silly little wip title while I came up with the outline of this)... but, honestly, that's so freaking cute that other people now use this title as well. <3
if you want to know more about details, characters or relationships in this AU, feel free to ask more questions - for real, I am so fond of this AU and the found family aspects of it all ^^
I will read your latest fic too, there have been so many new Minkey fics lately so I'm really trying to catch up. Can't wait for your 50k+ fic❤️
Thank you so much. <3
I probably won't write as much next year as I did this year but I'll try to contribute to there being even more Minkey fics in the future. They really are one of my fave ships and it's a lot of fun to write about them. I hope you'll like it and thank you so much for wanting to read it. That means a lot to me. <3
One of the best Minkey writers out there. I can't wait to read your new one<3
this is the very first message I've got on here and wow, thank you so much. that's such an amazing thing to say and such a huge compliment. thank you for liking my fics and for wanting to read my newest one as well <3
