It's alive!
Sep. 27th, 2006 11:37 pmHeads up: Got thingamy/Dongle. Confirmed. Internet Access GOT.
♥ Thanks Mom! ♥
Now have lots of reading to catch up on, but first, to celebrate (and because am braindead)...
==
1) Keyboard or biro? Both. Although lately it's mostly keyboard, I do write on paper when I want to be able to do so on the move, or am merely inspired in the middle of doing doodles. CQDEC* was completely written on paper before being posted, same for what's posted of it's sequel, O2J*, although both were written before my laptop days and I was on the move. ^^; ... I think the main reason I tend to prefer Keyboard over pen of late is because it's easier to find the document if you haven't touched it for a while.
2) Beta or no beta? Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Have only discovered betaing of late, so most my fics are unbetaed. I do however regularly jump at random people on msn to ask for advice and/or ask them to read over incase of major plot holes or OOC that could be nipped in the bud thanks to them.
3) Title? Sometimes before (LAG) sometimes after (CQDEC was codenamed EdogawaReturn until I found a title.) Some plot ideas come with, some without.
4) Smushy or smutty? I don't think I do much of either, but I probably lean towards smushy over smutty. I think I've only made characters kiss 3 times in all my published fics.
5) Summary? They are challenging things to make. Jolly useful for readers, but if I could get away without? I would. In multiparters I tend to use one sentance premise, one sentance description of latest chappy.
6) Funniest fic? My drabbles in french seem to be fun. (And yes, that includes the Kogoro-Ayumi one.) My first One Shot "Diddle Diddle Dumpling" was categorized as humour too. Although I guess "Lion's Ruby" is humour as well. And since I fail at evaluating jokes, I'll just say it's probably One of this lot.
7) Most popular fic? LAG. I think the SSR in front of the summary has something to do with it. Followed by Darkness(by reviews) or Translation please(by hits) although the latter is cheating since it's a collection of translated one shots. CQDEC seems to be my most read french fic. (But then again, it's my longest.)
8) Most Fun to Write? Lion's Ruby. Until I got writer's block and lost my plot notes. That, and the fics that "write themselves" for example: DDD*, CQDEC*, Darkness, (most my on impulse done one shots)... Oh, and "She likes old wines" was a sadistic pleasure. >c3
9) Best and Worst? Best: CQDEC. 8cD It's utterly full of spelling mistakes, poor style and junk, but it's IC, post-DC and I'm proud of the plot. It has a TWIST, and I pulled it off. Also my first COMPLETED Multichapter, and french fic, so yeah, I'm biased. (Also has illustrations for each chappy!)
If you want to see my best at writing, my one shots are probably better.
Worst: Not counting unpublished ones? Some of my drabbles are poor, but my brain comes up with my "Near-Rape" fic that I did for a fic contest. It seemed okay on the day, but heh. I'm not that proud of it. (Is in french and I'm not translating it.) My brain also comes up with O2J because: LOST PLOT.
10) Coulda Been Contenders? "Memories," my first fic ever. Well, not really, but I feel I could have/may still be able to do more with it then I did.
11) Strengths? I can write fairly decently in TWO languages. >cD Aheum. And translate rather fast from one to the other... But I think that's not what you were asking, right? Right. Humm... "Suspense" in the broad sense and IC characters... With a dash of poetic apparently.
12) Weaknesses? TYPOS, frenglish, SLOW and lazy. Am better at writing about characters I'm interested in, such as Ai Haibara, the BO. Am lousy at kissing scenes (thinking of SR* here.) Oh. And easily distracted. Did I say SLOW? SLOW. Also too many WIP.
13) Dirty little secrets? I have a tremendously badly written lemon on my HD, which I'm never showing anyone ever. The reason I say this here? Because I'm sadistic enough to torture you with it. You want to see? You want to prove me wrong? Well a) you can't and b) it's in french. I also have a Yaoi plunny waiting to be continued.
14) (What? I like fourteen.)
*DDD = Diddle diddle dumpling (OneShot English)
*CQDEC = Ce qu'est devenu Edogawa Conan (Multiparter French)
*O2J = Oiseau de Justice (CQDEC sequel)
*SR = Shuffle Romance (Multiparter French)

Date: 2006-09-30 01:02 pm (UTC)... I think I read a doujin/shi with that once...
Worse thing was, it was actually part of a funny doujin with Kid stalking Conan. (The Conan-Ayumi part was FREAKY though. >_>;; )
*hides in shame*
And I think it's very possible for Ai to see Ran as something else than an Akemi look alike.no subject

Date: 2006-09-30 02:38 pm (UTC)Much, much brain hurt and crack.
Very much brainhurt.
Ouch.
(Like, Akemi with a penis. OMG NO. And GIANT Conan. Which Ayumi takes in her stride. And I'd better stop there before I traumatize anyone.)no subject

(Shudders)
Insaneladybug had just broke my brain with the idea than an Akemi/Shiho pairing is possible(Maybe made a fic to exorcise that...strange..idea and out it outside of my head)and then you shamelessly footing my last piece of sanity...Y-Y
God, doushinjin drawer are worst than me...Et c'est aussi rassurant qu'effrayant...^^;
But the idea of Kid going around as random people, leaving a notice for Conan, warning him he was going to steal the virginity of such and such... it's just priceless...XD
I guess than Ran is on the thief's list...X)

And yes Ai seemed to see Ran like a great sister but feelings like people evolves, in my honest opinion, so with time, she could seen Ran like something more...
For Akemi/Shiho...Sometimes...I think I've made this poor Ai a sister complexed girl in my fics, even the non-Shiho/Ran...^^;
Akemi/Shiho...Akemi/Shiho...No, I must not made incest pairing...X(
But well...It's cute in an insane way...*_*
Argh I know it was a very bad idea to watch Koi Kaze...X(
No, I will never made Akemi/Shiho fic, never, never, NEVER!!
N.E.V.E.R!!!
