Alright so, I'm just here to chat over Magic and Mayhem.

Can I just say I love Eva. And Lupin. And James. And Sirius. And even ol' Pete. That's the thing. I LOVE these characters. You have convinced me of Eva's feelings and darkest secrets. I love how strong her voice comes threw, and how evident and pure and fantastic she is.

However, I am very confused at times over their names and personalities. I just can't get over the whole Liberty and Justice thing. Shudder.

That being said, let's move on to you. You are so talented and are certainly a role on here for me. And I quite enjoy your extensive A/N

So here are some questions for you.

1. How long do you write a day?
2. What keeps you motivated?
3. Favorite kind of ice cream?
4. Favorite character to write for?

Thanks for listening to me ramble on
Keep writing

Camillia

SOMEONE LOVES ME ENOUGH TO POST HERE OH MY GOSH I THINK I MIGHT DIE FROM HAPPINESS AND I DEFINITELY LOVE YOU A LOT!

*ahem*

Why do you like Peter? He's horrible! I hate writing him because he's so slimy and ratty and ew. (and how can anyone not love Remus? He is the bees knees )


1. How long do you write a day?Less than I should. Procrastinating is my middle name- for example, what I should be doing at this very moment is revising for my week of mocks next week... However, on average I write about an hour a night? Weekends, it'll be all day if I've got nothing to do and I'm inspired... so it varies a lot, but I rarely don't write anything. Oh, I tend to watch films on my laptop and have my writing up as well, and do two things at once. Multi-tasking is my middle name too. So, when I do that that's roughly three hours a night. Two and a half. This answer is rubbish.
2. What keeps you motivated? My lovely readers of course! <- wholly true. Once I think of an ending, I never want to finish a story. So, part of the reason I joined HPFF was to give me to motivation to finish a story. If people actually read my stuff, I wouldn't want to let them down! Flawlesslogic is also my middle name. That, and the fact I promise myself toast/cakes/tea/chocolate if I finish chapters.
3. Favorite kind of ice cream? Chocolate. No doubt. With the massive chunks of chocolate in it. I'm no fan of those fancy 'fish-food' ones! CHOCOLATE!
4. Favorite character to write for? I assume you mean who I like writing the most, so I will have to say... Sirius. Because, he's very hard to write. I don't want to make him clichéd, but most of me thinks, yeah. I bet Sirius was exactly like that, so I kind of do want to make him a terrible womaniser and arrogant sod. And then he's mainly my comedic relief as well, so he gets all the best one-liners, and I love writing those. But second is Eva, because I just love her. She's like my little sister, and I cringe with her and laugh and cry, and then I realise that she's only in my head. She's my first OC in fanfiction, and being that makes her so malleable and fun to write, she'll always be my baby


And I'm glad someone reads my extensive A/Ns! I think people just see the great bold mass at the end and skips it, but I like writing them! I think it makes me sound funny

However, I am very confused at times over their names and personalities. I just can't get over the whole Liberty and Justice thing. Shudder.

I don't understand what you mean by this?

Thank you so much for all your praise, and I will keep writing for lovely people like you And no-one is capable of rambling as much as I just did, so never fear! (me hearties!)

Sorry.

I HAVE MORE QUESTIONS WHY DIDN'T I SEE THIS BEFORE! :O Hello!

1) erm, I've always written. Once when I was very young I wrote a story about how some Celts defeated some Romans with custard pies- I know, a stroke of genius. I think I first started to properly write after I entered a school competition in early years of school with a story but it never got entered and instead ended up being sent to an exam board as an example of a much higher level than I was work. It gave me confidence to write, but I always made up elaborate plots and settings in my dollshouse and stuff.

2) Enid Blyton and her Famous Five. Those intrepid kids saving the day and eating ginger cake and having lemonade and high tea and it really rubbed off on me- my Barbie wanted to be George and my Playmobile were always getting lost on Kirrin Island.

3) That is so tough. I love me some canon- if the Queen says it, then it goes. I suppose it'll have to be Ron/Hermione, but I love love love ScoRose too.

4) Luna or Remus

5) I always wrote fanfiction in my head, but it was easiest to sustain a decent plot with HP because JK created such an extensive world. And finding this site started me to write my ideas down.

6) er, nope. I read some on that big fanfiction site (forgot the name) after posting some original fiction, and then I think I was scared off that site and found HPFF! Never looked back, because it's awesome. ♥

7) Google. Probably. Like everything else I know

8) Eva Ibbotson. I'm a sucker for a romance ♥, and she can write them like I've never read before. I highly recommend all her stories, I adore her writing so much.

Thanks so much for the questions!

Hey, Jenny! Decided to drop by your MTA *waves* I've seen some of your stories and I plan to read the others whenever I have enough time.

So...questions...

1) How do you conceive your plot ideas?
2) What do you consider as your best accomplishment in writing?
3) Did you ever think that you would publish fanfiction stories?
4) What's the hardest part of being an author?
5) What are you working on now?

There you go. I hope they're all very uhm...interesting questions?

IZZY! *squishes* Hey there!

1) I conceive my plot ideas by concentrating on something else. Usually ironing, hoovering, mowing or going for a walk, with music blasting in my ears. they are kind of relaxing and allow my mind to wander onto other things

2) Erm, my best accomplishment in writing? I would say this OF which was really terribly bad but I finished it a couple of years ago. Or, Honour Among Thieves because of the fairly complicated plot line

3) No. I didn't. To be honest, until a year ago, I didn't realise fanfiction existed, and I thought I was totally weird by imagining Harry Potter characters in Robin Hood situations or Percy Jackson fighting dinosaurs with the Primeval crew. *sigh* I was so innocent...

4) I would say either sitting down and forcing myself to write (which I'm terrible at) or editing. I try to take CC well, and improve on that, but when I know a chapter is rubbish and I can't quite pinpoint what, I'm inclined to just publish it anyway. So yeah, my laziness.

5) Currently, I am working on a new fic which is Charlie Weasley and a Muggle OC. I'm very excited about it! Oh, and hammering out the newest chapter of HAT as well (which is very tough).

Thank you very much for those questioning questions. They were very interesting! Love you!
