1) is there a story you’re holding off on writing for some reason?

I have roughly 30k words written for the ending of Home (https://www.fanfiction.net/s/5071703/1/Home), a fantastic spirk story that was abandoned before it was finished.  It’s so good, it really deserves an ending, and I probably have 3 scenes left to finish it, and have even found a beta to help me… but I keep putting off finishing and posting it.  I tell myself it’s because I’m working on other projects, but I suspect I’m also nervous about trying to end someone else’s beloved fic, even if they seem long gone and disinterested.

5) character you were most surprised to end up writing

Frankly, Pinto.  I’m not generally a fan of RPF and to this day have never been tempted by any other rp pairing.   Now that I’m not in its throes, I sort of tilt my head at it.  Then I see an old interview of the two of them and I’m all “oh right…now I remember.”

21) what do you think when you read over your older work?

My first long fanfic (back in 2010?) was for Twilight and featured Carlisle and Edward circa 1918.  It was 1) in first person (because the source material was) and 2) much more descriptive and flowery in its language, because both characters seemed to demand it, both of which feel strange now.  When I look back on it now, some of it feels sort of stilted, but I also wonder if I’ve lost something in dedicating myself to characters who seem to prefer snarky dialogue to long introspective paragraphs.  Maybe I’ll find more balance at some point.

Thanks for the asks @captainkatieb !
