13. Favourite line you’ve written.

Thank you for the ask! This took a little while to answer, mainly because I really went through the little bit of PYROPTOSIS’ first draft I have to try and see what really resonated with me, and this is what I found! (Also, it’s not just one line, but I felt it needed the context of the first line to make it make sense ^^).

The silence that followed was deafening, but still my ears pounded from the drumbeats of my frantic heart, as my mind weaved sentences together to try and counter his points. And yet, no matter how many times I knitted the words, my voice evaded me, unable to translate the patchwork into sounds.

This is from Ch.  3, where Declan is uh...having some trouble talking with his father. 

🤐 a secret

oof i’m running out of secrets to post :’0 here’s a snippet with a lie instead lol

“I wasn't leaving,” she said indignantly. “I just...needed some air.”

Rian shifted like he didn't believe her.

“And what exactly are you doing back here?” Bee countered. “Do the boxes keep good company?”

He looked away. “Needed some air.”

one out of context line from Petra coming right up:

“Go to the park and write a song about ducks or whatever it was."

🔏 - the first line of my wip

CINNAMON = You’re a really cool person and admire you from afar. 

INDIGO = I’ve been following you for a long time

3. what makes you love writing?

The act of creation is just... something marvelous to me. That I have the ability to create people? Whole worlds? It’s fantastic.

9. what are you best and worst at when writing?

I’m great at creating captivating plots! Description is probably my weakest point as a writer though. I’ve never been that good at it.

oh god wait i just forgot about this asdhjf

💎- What was your favorite part? 

21. longest piece (word count) you’ve ever written

I’ve only finished two wips before (a few drafts of APHELION and a really old comic I drew in high school). I can’t remember how long the comic was, but the most recent finished draft of APHELION was ~77k, so it’s gotta be that.

30. sad or happy endings

Past!me would say sad endings because I liked to be edgy and gritty, but now I don’t have the heart to kill any characters, and I’ve come to dislike when characters don’t get a happy ending after everything they’ve been through (I like my fiction to be more escapist), so it’s happy endings for me.
