A writing meme!
From ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
carmarthen, a writing meme. I think you're supposed to pick questions off the list to ask me.
1. Which is your favorite of the fics you've written for X fandom?
2. Favorite piece overall?
3. Which was the hardest to write, in terms of plot?
4. Which has the most “you” in it, however you'd define that?
5. What is an image/set of images that you're particularly proud of?
6. Idea that you always wanted to write but could never make work?
7. Least favorite plot point/chapter/moment?
8. Favorite plot point/chapter/moment?
9. Favorite character to write?
10. Favorite line or lines of dialogue that you’ve written
11. If I’m showing off just one of your pieces to someone, which one should it be?
12. What WIPs do you have going now? Are you excited about them?
13. Are there any things that might have happened in any of your stories, but you changed them at the last minute? (So-and-so dies, they don’t actually kiss, main character has long extended ballet-based dream sequence, etc.)
14. Would you want to write canon for any of your fandoms (like being hired by a showrunner to do an episode)? Which one?
15. Does font matter to you when you’re writing a draft?
16. Three favorite comments ever received on fanfic.
17. Any mean comments? How’d you deal with it? Who laid the smackdown?
18. If you could go back and revise one of your older stories, which would it be?
19. Do you make up scenes at work/on the bus/at the gym? Who are the characters that pop up the most? Do you write them down?
20. Go nuts, and talk about writing. Or write me a little ficlet-whatsit using a character/image/line I shall now specify.

Sometimes it feels like most of my original novel ideas are like this...
There's one in particular that I have tried to write twice, which is so bloody complicated I'm struggling to think how to describe it: an earthquake kills off the government of the island city of Neriad (the silly rulers built their palace out of brick, never mind they lived on a volcanic island).
The story basically follows a number of different players jockeying to rule the city, and there are so many of them and it's so bloody complicated. I need to go through with a machete and clear out subplots.

I have some ideas that even as I try to work them out in my mind, I know I don't have the wherewithal to follow through: frustrating.
