30 Days Of Fan Fiction: Day 18
18 – Where do you get the most inspiration or ideas for your fics?
From canon: expanding on it, explaining it, filling in gaps, wondering what would have happened if it had been different. The characters inspire me too when I write their backgrounds or childhoods or what happened to them afterwards. It's fun to put them up trees and see what they do.
Rest of the questions
19 – When you have plot ideas, do you sit down and start writing right away, or do you write down the idea for further use?
20 – Do you ever get ideas from other people's stories or art in the same fandom?
21 – Have you ever written a sequel to a fic you wrote, and if so, why? If not, how do you feel about sequels?
22 – Have you ever participated in a fest, ficathon, or a Big Bang? If so, write about your favourite experience in relation to one. If not, are there any you've thought about doing? And if not, why not?
23 – When you post, where do you post to? Just your journal? Just an archive? Your own personal site?
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?
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?
26 – What is the oddest (or most fun) thing you've had to research for a fic?
27 – Where is your favourite place to write, and do you write by hand or on the computer?
28 – Have you ever collaborated with anyone else, whether writing together, or having an artist work on a piece about your fic?
29 – What is your current project or projects?
30 – Do you have a favourite fic you've written? What makes it your favourite? And don't forget to give us a link!
