Question of the day part 7

<< < (34/57) > >>

Sakabelle:
I don't really let what people say in reviews affect what I write. I tend to just write what I want and let the story go how I want. I will take reader thoughts into consideration if I'm just talking about the story and brainstorming with friends on twitter or Yahoo, but as far as in a review where people share their predictions and what they want to happen? I very rarely take those suggestions because by the time of posting, I've already decided on where I want the story to end up.

It does tend to bother me when I see people making fun of writing. That is the kind of thing that will bother me a lot and put a damper on my writing mojo. Whether it's about my own stuff or not, it just really, really irks me.

To be able to write I have to know where I'm going with the chapter. I find I can't write if I just have half an idea, I need to know exactly what's going to happen. I also need to have tea or Starbucks or some sort of caffeinated beverage.

I don't usually point out huge mistakes to people in reviews unless they have specifically asked me for a critique review. But otherwise I just say what I enjoyed about the chapter. I also tend to gloss over mistakes because I have such a terrible memory for media, that if there was a gaping plot hole I likely wouldn't notice. This is also another reason why I personally need to outline things before even starting to write.

The only thing that affects my writing is how tired I am. If i'm exhausted I just can't write at all. My moods usually don't factor into things although I do write faster when I'm happy.

Carter-Orange:
AU peeves, hmm, I like the boys to still come across kind of true to who they are, although if the story is good, then I don't really mind.

To be able to write, I just need my brain to co-operate, lol.  Oh, and I need it to be quiet or I'll get distracted if the TV/music is on :)

Rose:
Jumping in randomly...the only thing that affects my writing is usually how hectic my life gets. If things tend to be too much, it does kill my writing mojo. Emotionally or Physically, it just depends on how much things get to me.

Though right now...I'm just slacking majorly LOL.

As for AUs, yeah they need to be true to who they are in some form. I try my best to do that in the AUs I write as well.

Carter-Orange:
I'm also slacking at the moment, I have no excuse either! Nothing dramatic going on in my life, just plodding on as always, but yet I seem to have lost my mojo :(  Think I need to re-read some of my story to get back into it.
