Question me

[louiselux]

I'm in a navel gazing sort of mood and would like to talk about writing. Does anyone have any questions about any of my stories, or would be interested in a fic commentary? Or maybe a question about my writing techniques, such as they are?

Please feel free to ask anything - I'll try and answer as best I can.

I think finding a good writing partner depends partly on luck. Before I met emungere I only knew her as someone I distantly fangirled and then we talked, and wrote something short, and kept on writing.

We write a lot of random ideas in IM, passing them back and forth, and that is really a good low pressure way to start writing with someone.

We don't set any ground rules, but that's probably because we talk often on IM, so anything that crops up in the writing is discussed straight away. We plot in IM, but also we feel quite free to introduce new ideas and events. I think the good communication is a big part of the writing working so well.

We've been betaing each others sections, but also getting others to read it too. I think it's probably best to get at least one outside view.
