What gets you in the mood? the writing mood that is.

Wellll, it depends. I sometimes wake up in that good writing mood where I enjoy what I write, so I take advantage of that for as long as I can! Or if I get this really good idea and I just need to get it written down! I find my writing mood depends on how well I feel like I’m writing than anything else :)

How do you handle constructive criticism?

If it’s given, I’ll take it. There can always be something I miss or I can improve on, something I never really thought about or noticed, and if somebody points it out and brings it to my attention, I’ll take the criticism! 

Oh god that is a difficult question, in my day to day life, probably, is the fact that our planet is slowly dying. And considering the way my country manages the environment, health and retirement systems either I won’t be able to reach seniority or, if I manage to do it, I’ll live a miserable life.

Specially considering that what I studied is not enough to maintain myself as an adult person, I know that even when I just graduated from college.

Oh, what a good question! Do you mean as a person or as a writer?

As a person, I have some unfortunately close examples of what not to be, so I keep those in mind at all times (or as often as possible). But I also know some incredible people with amazing qualities that inspire me to be better: my boss is great at inspiring team work and collaboration, which I find sensational; a friend of mine is so good at NOT holding grudges at all?? He doesn’t take shit from pple, but he doesn’t take the poison either. My husband has a shit ton of qualities I wish I could have for myself. Even some students of mine – teenagers – have attitudes that have me going “wow, yes, I wanna be that kind of person!”.I think that, in the end, we’re all collages of other pple – traits we instinctively learn from close family and friends, traits we see and admire and try to emulate, and traits we see and try to avoid. I’m a mess of different brushstrokes XD

Specific shout out to @nicaforov, who’s just an amazing person all around, and every interaction with her makes me wanna be better at… everything, really. At existing.

And as a writer… there are tons of writers I look up to, the top 3 being Terry Pratchett, Diana Wynne Jones and Neil Gaiman. They work as a sort of El Dorado for me, you know? XD But I have also found many excellent friends in fandom, whose works inspire me to keep pushing my writing further and further each time I sit in front of my computer to write. Off the top of my head, I can name @extranikiforov, @maydei, @lucycamui, @omgkatsudonplease, @victorsporosya, @kazliin, @iwritevictuuri, @spookyfoot, @sinkingorswimming, @exile-wrath, @cafecliche, @dreaming-fireflies… these are just some of the writers in the YOI fandom that inspire me to be better. Also @onepetal, who’s not in this fandom but it’s also amazing and an inspiration!
