Should be reworking character or doing something...
I’ve got everything all set up, open office is open, pandora is running and I am fairly comfortable.
But no. I’m derping around the internet, doing nothing.
what is wrong with me.

30 Days of Writing: Day 30
Final question! Tag someone! And tell us what you like about that person as a writer and/or about one of his characters!
Okay! I’m not going to tag anyone, but I’m going to mention some cool people who write and respect! It’s in alphabetical order, because if it wasn’t it would drive me crazy.

30 Days of Writing: Day 29
How often do you think about writing? Ever come across something IRL that reminds you of your story/characters?
I think about writing a lot! It’s my release, especially now that dancing has become painful. I use writing to destress and be creative, it’s fun for me. As for the second question, I think as a writer I’m constantly being inspired by things I see and hear. I...

30 Day Writing Challenge: Day 28
Have you ever written a character with physical or mental disabilities? Describe them, and if there’s nothing major to speak of, tell us a few smaller ones.
Mercy’s got the whole spine injury thing going for her, and there is all of that recovery (learning to stand/walk/move again thing). I have a character with a nasty limp, from being shot. Mental wise….I have my autistic character,...

Along similar lines, do appearances play a big role in your stories? Tell us about them, or if not, how you go about designing your characters.
Eh. They play a pretty standard role….it’s nice to let your readers know what your characters look like at some point. Appearances are much more important in Mercy’s story than they are Sarah’s. Mercy notices others and has to...

Let’s talk art! Do you draw your characters? Do others draw them? Pick one of your OCs and post your favorite picture of him!
Nope. Don’t draw. No one else draws them. Don’t have any drawings of my OCs.

Do any of your characters have pets? Tell us about them.
Just one! Anna has a kitten! The kitten is an orange tabby, who is just being called “Baby” right now. Kitten will get a real name soon enough.
I guess Mercy has a dog too? I don’t know. I should get that worked out.

How willing are you to kill your characters if the plot so demands it? What’s the most interesting way you’ve killed someone?
D:
That’s all I’m saying. I hate killing characters, I really do. I have a hard time killing characters. It is something I do not take lightly. I don’t believe in killing of people I’m bored with, or have no use for. No no no no.
Characters are...

I love how everyone who’s ever played Mass Effect will inevitably post the following heading on Tumblr:
So, I’m playing through Mass Effect. Again.

How long does it usually take you to complete an entire story—from planning to writing to posting (if you post your work)?
Uh! Wow. Shorts take me a lot less time than full like…novel stories. Little mini short stories take a couple hours, maybe a day or two with editing. Full stories take me months to plan out, longer to write and even longer to edit. I’ve never posted a full out...

Tell us about one scene between your characters that you’ve never written or told anyone about before! Serious or not.
Oooh. I have a lot of unwritten scenes, and some that I haven’t told anyone about.
The one that sticks out in my mind is the entire plot line I have with Mercy and her car accident. I haven’t been able to bring myself to write it out, but I’ve told people...

Do any of your characters have children? How well do you write them?
Yep! Two of my characters have children, and I have a character who is a child. I think I’ve got the mind set down really well, I think I can write kids just fine. Sometimes it’s hard writing from the parents perspective because I don’t fully understand the parent-child relationship from the parent’s...

What are your favorite character interactions to write?
UH. Wow. This is another one of those questions that really depends on my mood. I like having characters interact a lot, anything with dialog. Any chance I get for characters to talk to each other.
I think I like pleasant conversations the best, sometimes I’m too quick to defuse angry situations and I am awful at teasing, but just...

Favorite minor that decided to shove himself into the spotlight and why!
Oh man. Uhm. Sarah’s ex, Benjamin. He started off as someone who was mentioned once or twice originally and he’s grown into a main character. It’s been a really fun an unexpected evolution, he’s really changed the entire story.
I think what’s great about him is he remembers Sarah’s...

Favorite antagonist and why!
Oooo! Actually, my newest antagonist! His name is Neil, and he’s from Mercy’s universe. He’s actually her first big case, and continues to be part of her life for a couple of years before she catches the guy.
He’s great. He’s a serial killer, he doesn’t have the emotions like everyone else has, his thoughts are patterned...
