naomi_jay22. Tell us about one scene between your characters that you’ve never written or told anyone about before! Serious or not.
Oh God, there are so many scenes I've never written! That's such a ridiculous question for a writer.
Lol, well, there's the non-canon slash between Ash/Christian and Ash/Isaac that I wrote for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
chaostheory . Beyond that, there's a whole slew of Scarlett/Ash scenes that are just in my head right now because I haven't yet gathered up the guts to write them. Not because they're particularly salacious, but just because I haven't yet conquered my need to make their story absolutely perfect, and I know if I try to write it before I've gotten over that, I'll just make a hash of it by never being satisfied with it.
There's the scene where one of Christian's love children shows up on his doorstep wanting to get to know his dad and Christian is all o_O about it and decides the easiest solution is buy the kid hundreds of presents and send him back to his mum until a paternity test can be arranged. I'd love to write a scene showing how Vince and Joel from the Urban Wolf novels got together. And Ayla and Shannon for that matter.
Oh God, and there's mine and![[info]](https://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)
chaostheory's epic scene of epicness where all the guys in the Scarlett world stage an intervention and force Ash to go to an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, and Ethan gets really into it and starts trying to initiate group hugs. Christian tries to pick up single women by promising them booze, Kas is all "I'm thirteen, why did you make me come?" and Blade and Isaac just huddle in the corner holding hands and being nonplussed. Ash is furious and keeps threatening to kill Ethan, who refuses to give up on him and pesters him constantly to admit he has a problem and accept a group hug. I have a 70 page printout of the MSN conversation we had about this scenario, and we still talk about it today.
23. How long does it usually take you to complete an entire story—from planning to writing to posting (if you post your work)?
24. How willing are you to kill your characters if the plot so demands it? What’s the most interesting way you’ve killed someone?
25. Do any of your characters have pets? Tell us about them.
26. Let’s talk art! Do you draw your characters? Do others draw them? Pick one of your OCs and post your favorite picture of him!
27. Along similar lines, do appearances play a big role in your stories? Tell us about them, or if not, how you go about designing your characters.
28. Have you ever written a character with physical or mental disabilities? Describe them, and if there’s nothing major to speak of, tell us a few smaller ones.
29. How often do you think about writing? Ever come across something IRL that reminds you of your story/characters?
30. Final question! Tag someone! And tell us what you like about that person as a writer and/or about one of his/her characters!
