🔥Fire: What’s a scene that you are dying to write?

oooohhh, okay so there's a scene in part ii of lsyr where the themes of vitality in both love and the earth itself finally intersect . . . and it's as sexy as it sounds ;)

🪨 Rock: How do you deal with writer’s block?

I answered this is another ask over here, but sometimes just stop writing and play the sims! 😆

Thanks for the ask, Kate! You're never too late to ask me to blather about myself! 😂

Fire: What’s a scene that you are dying to write?

If we're talking about GSNBTR, there's a scene coming up in Ch. 24 (and partially in Ch. 25) that I've been looking forward to for a very long time. I usually write scenes out of order and ahead of time, but this is one I've waited to write until just before I post the chapter, because I'm also kind of nervous about it -- it's a caper, and I love capers, but I've never really written one like this before, though, so wish me luck.

I am/was also dying to write the finale although maybe it doesn't count because I have written and rewritten most of it already probably about 3 times now (but I know I will again).

oh I try to write all the best ones almost as soon as they come to mind, buuut, I guesss...... OH ok I wanted to write a fic based off a prompt I got from @meggory84, where Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon are both Senior Padawans. Ben gets tossed back via time travel and possibly doesn't recognise Qui at first. They're both supposed to be on solo missions. The mission goes very sideways, Obi-Wan handles it in typically insane Senior Padawan Kenobi fashion, and Qui-Gon is full on 😍😍😍 in love with things that could probably bite off something vital (yes that expressly refers to Senior Padawan Kenobi) Also there are some moments for Padawan Jinn to impress this Padawan of his future self. Unfortunately for me there is a need for some plot, so this concept currently marinating.

Sand: What’s the softest scene you’ve ever written?

sand: what’s the softest scene you’ve ever written?

this was hard, i’ve written a lot of fluff bc angst makes my heart hurt. but off the top of my head, a passage from From Things Lost, that isn’t released yet:

He’s already memorized every little unique thing about the way you look, but he’s never seen you like this. He’s paying close attention, adding new things about you into his inventory. Your lips part slightly while you sleep, your nose wrinkles every so often, and your eyelashes flutter. And with that picture of you making him feel a little more at ease, he falls asleep easily.

Water: How did you start writing?

Overall: As a small child, I had many long periods of time alone in uninteresting surroundings with nothing to entertain me but myself. I developed the habit of telling myself stories extensively as a response, so as soon as I could write I began doing the same thing on paper.

Specifically writing fanfic: I think being 29 before I watched or read anything Star Wars at all did something to my brain that caused me to catch some kind of Star Wars disease as soon as I watched the prequels lmao. 🤣

Watching popular things I'd been avoiding was part of a wave of changes I was making to my own mind and personality, but then I kept rewatching Revenge of the Sith. And rewatching it. And rewatching it. And it was making me want to start writing again, which I hadn't done since I was like 19/20, and also turning me into an obikin shipper.

A few weeks later I read "Bird By Bird" by Anne Lamott which fundamentally altered how I write, how I plot, how I outline and how I see narratives in general, and contributed a lot to me starting to write again.

I made this blog about 2 months after that first watch of the OT and PT. By then I was already writing fanfic and my main reason for joining tumblr was to gush, follow other writers, drool over fanart, and attract a reader base for my as-then unpublished works.

Rain: Have you ever made yourself cry with your own writing?  If so, what was it?

My physical tear ducts are atrophied and of reduced functionality, but my emotions are not impacted by it and I can still get that "Man I would normally be crying rn" feeling. So far, my own writing has done that 3 times:

> When Obi-Wan yells at lost 19 y/o Anakin in ch5 of More Devils Than Shoulders

> Cody's POV portion of the dream sequence in the upcoming ch2 of Love Is a Battlefield

(Fire)

There is.

All I can say is that it involves a DEA agent and her boss, the stressed and intrigued county attaché.

Bri’s FC is Christine Prosperi and the other elemental girls are Kaia and Adriana. I want Kaia to be someone who is basically Tashi Rodriguez but with more resources and Ade needs to be someone who basically looks like they would be a  b i t c h  I’m thinkin Chloe Bridges. Obvz Elsa is Elsa - no changes there.
