O. If you could choose one of your fics to be filmed, which would you choose?
Ooooooh, this is a good question!!!! Well, if I'd finished Impromptu, it would TOTALLY be that. But since I haven't, I think antechamber of another world would be cool as hell - I'd really like to see that world.
Q. Do you write your story from start to finish, or do you write the scenes out of order?
I'm mostly a linear writer. I don't do outlines, and I don't generally figure out specific throughlines on fics (though, unless it's a huge novel, I do generally know where it's going to end up (and of course, even that has been untrue from time to time)). Sometimes I don't even know where the story is going until I start writing it.
The few times I've written scenes before I've gotten to them in the main story, I've had to dump them because things just didn't line up when I actually got there.
I'm doing this right now; I've got a story where I started writing, and I also started writing the sex that's about a third of the way through (because I was inspired to, and I'm not interested in writing sex a lot of the time, so I have to write it when I'm inspired) and already I can see the cracks, things I wrote into the sex that don't line up with where the main body of the story has gone. I may be able to massage the sex to make it fit, but I'm not really sure it'll be possible - I may just have to rewrite the whole thing.
