M. What’s the best writing advice you’ve ever come across?
Write every day. I've heard it all over, but the first time it really got through to me was in Stephen King's On Writing, which is still my writing go-to book for when I need a little pick-me-up. I find, for me, if I write first thing in the morning every day, everything goes better - my day, my writing, and just... my life in general.
P. If you only could write one pairing for the rest of your life, which pairing would it be?
Well, this is disingenuous, because I would probably stop writing if I could only write one pairing for the rest of my life, but right now I'd pick Wincestiel because three people gives you more options than two and it's just the fandom I'm involved in right now and the pairing whose dynamics work for me right now. I'm pretty sure if you'd asked me this question three years ago, I would've said McShep without any hesitation. I know I'll fall out of SPN eventually, but I hope I get a few more good years out of it.
In general, there isn't anything I think will last for the rest of my life (except hopefully my wife) because I am just too mercurial to be stuck with something for that long.
