Are you one of those authors who...

[Noir.]

Focuses on writing to appease herself, painting a picture by sometimes overly indulging in detail.

Forces herself to stop rereading her posts more than twice, otherwise she has to continually change it.

Goes back to her posts sometimes days later and sometimes asks “what the fuck were you thinking?”

Has the intention of making friendly characters, but they all eventually end up dark and twisty.

Has come to terms that grammar will never be a friend, but the thought still drives her crazy.

Tends to listen to folk metal while writing in the fantasy setting, example Korpiklaani ftw.

- Almost every time I re-read a post I find at least one thing I have to edit/ change.
- I'm a grammar freak, so whenever I see anyone else make any mistakes or typos, I'm like "... Must. do. EDIT!"
- My main character is based upon myself.
- I have a tendency to kill off a lot of characters after they become unneeded in the story as a way to explain what happens to them after their uses.
- If my characters aren't killed, they're tortured and then killed or are never heard from again anyhow.
- If they aren't tortured, they go missing... and maybe die off.
- If they don't go missing, they're extremely minor and go off on their daily business as if nothing's happened.
- If none of the fates listed above have happened to a character, they're one of my main characters.
- I'm (very) cruel to my characters.
- I based my main character off of other characters I've made before coming here. (one of those characters were named "Ayleth" and she was training to be a knight.)
- I already know what's going to happen to my main character at the end of my solos, even when I've first started them.
- I'm terrible at my description.
- I use a lot of imagery, personification, etc.

- I go crazy after a thread I wrote in gets closed and just then I notice a grammar mistake but I can't fix it cause the thread is closed. :P
- I can't bare to read my older writings cause I was so terrible back then xP
- I write random, little vignettes off and on when in the random mood and never submit them to this website even though I want to see what people would think of them.
- Instead of writing I sometimes watch YouTube all day long...
- Whenever I'm angry or super excited I write it out in a story.
- I tend to be very poetic off and on in my writing.
- I've got a million ideas on writing, but whenever I actually go to the thread I want to write in I forget it all!

[Erikar]

Always ends up taking a lot of punishment in fights in a bid at realism(may get a slight masochistic pleasure out of it)

Has a lot of trouble expressing a specific persona

Judges his and other people's writing subconciously(I could probably judge, but that seems like a lot of work..)

[BlackAndBlueEyes]

I'm also a writer who, as an rp'er, plays a character who's best served in a story's supporting role; yet, but writing in first-person, I tend to force her into the spotlight... -_-

[Enigmatic Immortal]

I find it creepy how Roht has exactly the same quirks I do...

[Hysteria]

You're a creepy sort of guy *shrug*

But not as creepy as:

~I give my characters things I can't have then take it from them.

I'd like to see more people do this, Sei? Duffy?

[Silence Sei]

-I'm a writer who embodies Sei with almost every sigle one of my own good traits; family above all else, willing to sacrifice mind and body for friend, despite being burned on numerous occasion, gives anybody a chance, etc etc.

~ Likewise, Zack embodies all my negative traits; I'm arrogant, have a tendency to talk like I'm better than everyone, I get angry when I lose, etc etc.

~ Many of my characters started as templates based on other characters (Sei was Silence from Saga Frontier, Zack was Ash Crimson, Play Back was Ronin of Marvel comics fame....) but wind up becoming their own unique person by the end of their first thread.

~ I get upset over things that happen OOCly regardless of whether or not it made sense ICly for someone to do.

~ I'm the kind of writer that things Lye's the kind of writer that's dumb.

[Ashla]

- Some of the best stuff I think I've written is stuff I wrote purely for my enjoyment and not for judging...
- I write really gory scenes even though I can't stand gore :/ xP (Like, seriously, WUT?!?)
- I already have my level four character sheet written out.
- I love writing flashbacks!!!
- I've got a million flashback scenes written in my head that are just being saved for the perfect moment...

[Tobias Stalt]

I'm sadistic toward my kind characters. My evil boys are cruel.

I don't really write any bad guys on Althanas. Yet.

I enjoy giving my characters immense flaws. If you can't accept them of feel sorry for them because of them, you're seeing the best point of giving a character a flaw. They're not supposed to be endearing.

I enjoyed making Tobias the puppet. It works out well for story later.

Yes. I put an enormous amount of thought into how I would wage war on Eiskalt. No. I am not a humanistic tactician.
