hello beloved niku i’m glad your ask made it thru!! okay let’s go!

17. talk about your writing and editing process

so like. technically there is a process in the sense that there’s always some type of process for them but i think mine is mostly chaos! usually i get an idea or have a scene/line pop up and i either write out the line or the bones of said scene. sometimes it’s a whole plot! in which case—also bones. then i get distracted by something else!

if it’s compelling enough, though, i end up going back. if it’s something that i think will require more fleshing out, i try to piece together resources i might need—for example, i have whole swaths of ampho lore bookmarked in a folder to reference for cycles fic—and then set them aside for a bit.

tbh at this point the process devolves bc i’m either manically writing out the fic or im just scratching down lines here or there. i often am talking with pals about the fic at this point, which also helps me streamline the idea. usually i end up writing the end first, so i know what im working towards.

unfortunately i do edit as i write, which is suffering and i never recommend. i’m trying to get away from the habit but it’s Hard. it rlly means i get in my own way, which is very frustrating.

at some point i send the fic (either pieces of it or the whole thing) to friends to look at! then i take their feedback and corrections and decide what i want to keep, tweak, or change entirely. sometimes i get something beta’d two or three times, but often just having that initial clean-up is fine with me.

tbh this process can vary heavily depending on the fic. and a lot of the time i walk away for several days or more! but i think that’s the basic gist of it!
