vilakins: Vila with stars superimposed (Default)

24 – How many betas do you like to use to make sure there aren't any major flaws in your fic? Do you have a beta horror story or dream story?

Just the one if it's not so short I don't bother - the excellent [livejournal.com profile] astrogirl2 who is kind enough to do it despite no longer being in my main fandom. I'm not sure who else I'd turn to.

And as LJ wasn't up last night (and cross-posting from DW still isn't working) another question:

25 – Do you listen to music while you write? Do you make playlists to get into a certain "mood" to write your fic? Do you need noise in general? Or do you need it completely quiet?

No, no, no, and yes! OK, Mozart or Bach would be fine but just about any other noise, especially songs with lyrics, conversation, or Greg watching TV in the next room (this is OK if I close the door) short-circuits the word-handling part of my brain.

Rest of the questions )

I can't cross-post or import from LJ since yesterday (and despite checking my password) so there won't be any entries here for a while. Not that anyone reads them much.
