"... It's a game where you state your quirks as an author."

So, are are you one of those kind of authors...

I'm one of those kinds of authors who:
Even when I'm not trying, I keep abusing my characters!
My characters talk to me and tend to file complaints and try to kill me.
When I'm writing descriptions, I will give the basic outline and any other add ins here and there, but when I write a scene concerning death or blood... "And his bloody innards scattered across the once clean floor with intense, red, liquid and lungs splattering everywhere and getting onto"... :P

What? I'm not sure what you're asking...

[Ashla]

What? I'm not sure what you're asking...

I mean are you one of those authors have have those things like if your character talks to you or something always happens in your stories even if you don't mean for them to happen, you just always have it written down in the end.

Zook, I assume it's a game where you state your quirks as an author. Like so...

I'm the kind of author who:
~ Willfully and with premeditation abuses his characters.
~ Sees all his characters as magnifications of different parts of his own psyche, which can be scary at times.
~ Proofreads everything over and over again, even days later, and even if it's not going to be judged.

Example: I just edited this to put in an 'and'.

Yes, you are correct. Thanks for interpenetrating me :P
And the first and third ones of yours are me too!

I'm the kind of author who:
~ Forgets to put a setting in his stories
~ Gives his main characters his personality
~ Has horrible grammar
~ Writes flat dialogues
~ Uses writing to get ideas out of his head.

Me too!

[Hysteria]

I'm the kind of author who:
~ Knows exactly how his characters will act in any setting
~ Imparts part of himself into each character (*high fives Roht*)
~ Hates to have characters with weak personalities
~ Never likes to read something he has written after the last proof read
~ Forgets what narrative style he was striving for as soon as there is action
~ Closes his eyes when he writes so he can picture whats going on
~ Listens to loud music, and kinda feel like I am floating when I'm in the 'zone'
~ Doesn't care what he scores for a thread ()

[BlackAndBlueEyes]

I'm one of those writers
-who believes that a story is only as good as the villain that drives the conflict
-hates re-reading my own writing, because I'll probably decide that it's utter garbage and nuke the whole thing
-doesn't care about overly flowery descriptions and metaphors; I only put in just enough details to make them actually matter
-compiles a short musical playlist for each major character in a story, and I listen to that playlist when I'm writing that character

~When I need to hurt something, I do it brutally in character.
~To purify my own madness, I give it to another through writing.
~If I need order and structure in life, I make it in a story.
~In an effort to be perfect, I obsess over grammar even though I know it's never right.
~I give my characters things I can't have then take it from them.
~When I dream something twisted and unique, I create a story to bring it to life.
