Fic Quiz Thingie

[ladybug_archive]

Found this on Tumblr and thought it looked interesting. But I don't post these types of things on Tumblr, so I brought it over here. Comment with the title of one of my fics and a number. (Or if I have a lot of time to kill/a lot to say, I may just answer all of the questions for every fic suggested.)

1. What was my inspiration for this fic? How did it come to me?
2. What’s my favorite part of the fic?
3. What’s the part of the fic I’m most proud of?
4. What part of the fic was the hardest for me to write?
5. What part of the fic am I still dissatisfied with?
6. Who’s my favorite character in the fic?
7. Were there any major decisions I made about the fic that could have made it go a whole different direction?
8. Was there anything I only learned about the fic after I had finished it? (themes, motifs, symbolism, etc)
9. Did anyone in the fic surprise me by doing anything? If so, what?
10. If I had to sum up this fic in a sentence, what would it be?
11. If I were to rewrite this fic, what would I change?
12. Did any thing about this fic’s reception surprise me?
What were my beta’s major comments about the first draft of this fic? This one doesn't apply since I never use a beta. I am my own beta. I don't want to wait for someone else to find time to read each of my fics before I can post them!
13. If I were to write a sequel to this fic, what would it be about?
14. Any other question about the fic!

Ohh, what an interesting meme/quiz thingy! How about #1 for Ghosts? The Ayumi and Gin one. You wrote it a long time ago, but I still remember it fondly.

I couldn't remember the answer to your query offhand, so I went digging in back entries and surprised myself. Apparently the inspiration was a blurb written by Lizzie (who has used so many LJ accounts I'm having trouble remembering her current one). It featured a creepy guy similar to the villain in Ghosts, and the plunnie sparked when I wondered how Gin would react to a creep like that. Then I debated over using an OC kid for him to encounter and rejected that idea because I could use Ayumi so easily. Also, it seems Ghosts was originally a oneshot and your enthusiasm for it made me decide to expand it. :)
