Stolen from bradygirl_12. I've had to change one or two things to make it work with me, though! ;)




1. What is about my writing that pleases/interests/delights you and gets you all excited when you see a starsandsea fic pop up on your f-list? ;) What stands out the most when you read a story of mine?



2. Disregarding what I write for a moment, who are your favorite pairings in general?



3. Of the pairings I write, which ones do you enjoy reading the most? Which is your favorite? What is it about them that you like when you read a story of mine featuring them (can discuss more than one pairing)?



4. Have you become interested in a pairing you have never read before or had no inclination previously to read because I have written them? Why?



5. What genre(s) do you enjoy most that I’ve written? Any genres you would like to see more of from me?



6. Do you like short pieces or long stories? Do you enjoy series? Do you like all kinds of, ahem, length? ;)



7. Okay, this is tricky. My Muses either ‘get’ a couple for me to write or not, but sometimes trying out the new helps me get it together. Any pairings/threesomes or more you would like to see me write that I never have before, or have only mentioned in passing? Pairings current or past?



8. Most of my readers like slash, reading and/or writing it. Do you also read het and gen? Perhaps not as much but willing to do so by any writer you like?



9. Slash couples are the majority on my f-list. My curiosity is aflame, however: any het couples who are your little secrets that you like?



10. What are your favorite stories written by me? Why? (I have them all listed in the Links List on my LJ!) J



11. Again, Muses are stubborn sometimes, but are there any series you would like to see continued or any stories that would merit a sequel? I can’t guarantee anything would come of this, but it sure helps me know which way the winds are blowing out there! J

1. What is about my writing that pleases/interests/delights you and gets you all excited when you see a starsandsea fic pop up on your f-list? ;) What stands out the most when you read a story of mine?

Hmm, I think that your writing evokes a special sense of time and place for me, Star. You create moods very well.

2. Disregarding what I write for a moment, who are your favorite pairings in general?

Clark/Bruce, Bruce/Dick, Clark/Dick, all three together ;), Dick/Roy, Steve/Diana, Apollo/Starbuck.

3. Of the pairings I write, which ones do you enjoy reading the most? Which is your favorite? What is it about them that you like when you read a story of mine featuring them (can discuss more than one pairing)?

I think you do a wonderful job with Clark/Bruce. You give them such passion and sweetness while keeping them in-character.

4. Have you become interested in a pairing you have never read before or had no inclination previously to read because I have written them? Why?

Michael/Pieter. I never knew much about them and still don't except for your fics. :)

5. What genre(s) do you enjoy most that I’ve written? Any genres you would like to see more of from me?

I love your fairytales and hope you write more! :)

6. Do you like short pieces or long stories? Do you enjoy series? Do you like all kinds of, ahem, length? ;)

All kinds! :)

7. Okay, this is tricky. My Muses either ‘get’ a couple for me to write or not, but sometimes trying out the new helps me get it together. Any pairings/threesomes or more you would like to see me write that I never have before, or have only mentioned in passing? Pairings current or past?

Ha, easy one! More Steve/Diana when you get a Wonderbunny! ;)

Also, I love your family-themed fics, especially Wee!Dick. ;)

8. Most of my readers like slash, reading and/or writing it. Do you also read het and gen? Perhaps not as much but willing to do so by any writer you like?

I do read het and gen, though slash is more often.

9. Slash couples are the majority on my f-list. My curiosity is aflame, however: any het couples who are your little secrets that you like?

Green Eyes has me interested in Cass/Jason. I also would love to see you try Selina/Bruce because they have real sexual chemistry.

10. What are your favorite stories written by me? Why? (I have them all listed in the Links List on my LJ!) :)

Ah, the Sleeping Beauty tale is a definite favorite, and so is the Beauty and the Beast spin-off. Also your Steve/Diana. ;)

11. Again, Muses are stubborn sometimes, but are there any series you would like to see continued or any stories that would merit a sequel? I can’t guarantee anything would come of this, but it sure helps me know which way the winds are blowing out there! :)

I'd like to see you write Hourman II/Liberty Belle II, and more Steve/Diana! :)

Really? *glomps* Thank you! :D

I think you do a wonderful job with Clark/Bruce. You give them such passion and sweetness while keeping them in-character.

*glomps again* I worry constantly that I'm not keeping them in character, so it's really nice to have you say that! :D

Michael/Pieter. I never knew much about them and still don't except for your fics. :)

Heh, I thought that might be the answer to that question! ;)

I love your fairytales and hope you write more! :)

Well, I've been playing with the idea of maybe doing 'Cinderella', but the slave fic is kinda Cinderella like... Ooooh!!! Plot Bunny! There may just be a new fairytale sometime! ;)

Ha, easy one! More Steve/Diana when you get a Wonderbunny! ;)

Also, I love your family-themed fics, especially Wee!Dick. ;)

Heh, a Wonderbunny, hmm? Wee!Dick is very cute. ;)

I also would love to see you try Selina/Bruce because they have real sexual chemistry.

*giggles a little* I don't know if I could ever write Selina/Bruce, because my Selina knows that Bruce is madly in love with Clark, so they have much much more of a brother/sister vibe to me and giggle a lot at the suggestion of them being together. Maybe that isn't the traditional view of Selina, but it's the Selina I have in my head! The only time I think I could write them is if Bruce was trying to make Clark jealous, I think. I have strange muses. *pets them all*

I'd like to see you write Hourman II/Liberty Belle II

I have written a little drabble for them. That was the fic I was going to give for the chocolate challenge. But I chickened out, because I'm certain I have not got them at all right. *shrugs a little* Maybe I'll write another drabble for them one day.

Thank you for replying, Brady! *glomps again*

[bradygirl_12]

I forgot to mention that I adore your Charlie stories! ;)

[starsandsea.livejournal.com]

*grins* Charlie makes everything better! :p

[arch-schatten.livejournal.com]

1. Probably the emotional depth you give the character, and how you can make them vulnerable but still strong. I love your Bruce very much, and knowing you put so much of you in the stories always makes them.. more jewel-like, you know? special because they have soul.

2. Well, Blark, of course, Bruce/J'onn, Bruce/Arthur... uh, I like whoring Bruce around, so as long as they aren't the Robin's age (or the Robins) I will be interested!

3. Well, I enjoy all of them, really! I love your Bruce/Clark because you make them really warm and play them like equals, not broken but not godlike either. And I love your Terrific/Midnight! they are just adorable and so very tragic and woobie, and they deserve all the love you give them.

4.Uh, well. I was already inclined to the pairings you write! But I was very impressed with your Nightwing/Legolas.

5. H/C H/C!! ;)

6. I enjoy them all, really. I like long stories and short stories and series.. it's about what a story needs to work, really.

7. Well, I would love to see some more Michael/Bruce... and any pairing with Tim, really (as long as it isn't something like.. Bruce/Tim or Clark/Tim 'cause I might dieeeeee).

8. I definitely also read het and gen, and love reading stories by my favorite writers in those genres.

9. Bruce/Selina OTP. Seriously, seriously big BatxCat fan. I love Blark with all my heart, but if comics could ever give me something I really, really wanted in canon, it should be Clois status BatxCat. SERIOUSLY, GIVE IT TO ME! Selina <3 <3 Also, Clark/Diana and J'onn/Diana. And Arthur/Diana. Ohhh, yeah. I do like het, it's just that the stories.. tend to be... hrmp. More conventional in their dynamics, or the boys as sex-toys, and bleh. Oh, also Scott/Barda!! totally awesome.

10. I'm very very fond of the deaf-verse :)

11. Deaf-verse and Gotham-verse, of course! I would like to see all your series continued, lol.

Probably the emotional depth you give the character, and how you can make them vulnerable but still strong. I love your Bruce very much, and knowing you put so much of you in the stories always makes them.. more jewel-like, you know? special because they have soul.

*hugs Mina a lot* Thank you, Mina. That means a lot to me. :)

Well, I enjoy all of them, really! I love your Bruce/Clark because you make them really warm and play them like equals, not broken but not godlike either. And I love your Terrific/Midnight! they are just adorable and so very tragic and woobie, and they deserve all the love you give them.

*hugs Mina again* Thank you! :D *hearts Clark and Bruce and Pieter and Michael. And you*

But I was very impressed with your Nightwing/Legolas.

Nightwing/Legolas is crazy!!! You know you've started my Dick!Muse pestering me again to write more?

H/C H/C!! ;)

*grins*

Well, I would love to see some more Michael/Bruce... and any pairing with Tim, really (as long as it isn't something like.. Bruce/Tim or Clark/Tim 'cause I might dieeeeee).

There may be some Michael/Bruce sometime! :) Tim!! Tim is a bit difficult for me. I don't think I totally 'get' him, you know? My Tim is Young Justice!Tim, I think. *ponders Tim* Though I may - may! - have something like Tim/Kon written. No Tim with Bruce or Clark. My muses won't let that happen. :)

Oh, also Scott/Barda!! totally awesome.

Scott/Barda!!! Oh, they are wonderful! :D

Deaf-verse and Gotham-verse, of course! I would like to see all your series continued, lol.

*grins* Well, I've given you all the Deaf verse fic I've got written. The next chapter of the Gotham fic has been sitting on my lappy for... oh, only 7 months. Not all that long then. I think I've gotten maybe another 2-3? chapters written, but I'm definitely stalled on what to do next.

*glomps* Thanks for responding to this, Mina! :D

[jij.livejournal.com]

But I was very impressed with your Nightwing/Legolas.

*nods energetically*

I'd forgotten that one for a moment, but wow! It blew me away...

[starsandsea.livejournal.com]

I feel very unattached to that one, somehow! I think it's because I didn't actually write it - I mean write it by hand, and then type it up. No doubt if I go back and look at it now, I'll cringe and see so many mistakes... LOL.

[jij.livejournal.com]

1. What is about my writing that pleases/interests/delights you and gets you all excited when you see a starsandsea fic pop up on your f-list? ;) What stands out the most when you read a story of mine?

Too much to list? :) Delicate psychological portraits and beautiful moments, would I suppose be my snap answer....

2. Disregarding what I write for a moment, who are your favorite pairings in general?

In DCU...um, S/B, Dick/Tim, Bruce/Selina, Tim/Steph, Steph/Cass...but really the gap between my enthusiasm for the first and my enthusiasm for all the others is near-infinite. :)

3. Of the pairings I write, which ones do you enjoy reading the most? Which is your favorite? What is it about them that you like when you read a story of mine featuring them (can discuss more than one pairing)?

S/B, of course! :) Largely for the insights into the psyches of both of them, especially Bruce. And the Michael/Pieter for the sadness and wistfulness of it, laced with happiness.

4. Have you become interested in a pairing you have never read before or had no inclination previously to read because I have written them? Why?

I suppose Michael/Pieter because I'd never seen it before and you do it so nicely.

5. What genre(s) do you enjoy most that I’ve written? Any genres you would like to see more of from me?

I love everything you write. :) Angst isn't one of my favorite genres but I like the way you write it...

6. Do you like short pieces or long stories? Do you enjoy series? Do you like all kinds of, ahem, length? ;)

I like anything. Short and long stories serve different purposes and different moods--it would be like preferring sonnets to haiku because there are more words in the former to say longer is better.

7. Okay, this is tricky. My Muses either ‘get’ a couple for me to write or not, but sometimes trying out the new helps me get it together. Any pairings/threesomes or more you would like to see me write that I never have before, or have only mentioned in passing? Pairings current or past?

I'm quite happy with what you write. I think you could probably write a good Tim/Kon or Dick/Tim, maybe? But I like the way you have things now, pretty much. :)

8. Most of my readers like slash, reading and/or writing it. Do you also read het and gen? Perhaps not as much but willing to do so by any writer you like?

I like anything as long as it's good and a pairing I like.

9. Slash couples are the majority on my f-list. My curiosity is aflame, however: any het couples who are your little secrets that you like?

No secrets, since I like het just as much as slash: Bruce/Selina, Clois if I'm in the right mood, Tim/Steph, Dick/Kory, Barbara/Ted Kord, Steve/Diana are all pairings I like at times.

10. What are your favorite stories written by me? Why? (I have them all listed in the Links List on my LJ!)

I'll always remember the Storm ficlets. *sighs happily*

I really, really loved the Beauty and the Beast retelling somehow.

The story with Bruce drowning...I'm not sure if it's "favorite" but I know it made an indelible, haunting impression on me.

And anything with Charlie. :)

11. Again, Muses are stubborn sometimes, but are there any series you would like to see continued or any stories that would merit a sequel? I can’t guarantee anything would come of this, but it sure helps me know which way the winds are blowing out there!

The blinded Bruce (edit: that should be Deaf, of course!)series continues to pique my interest. :) Other than that, wherever your muses take you is a good place for me, since I love your writing. :)

[starsandsea.livejournal.com]

Too much to list? :) Delicate psychological portraits and beautiful moments, would I suppose be my snap answer....

Aww. *hugs Jen* Thank you!

S/B, of course! :) Largely for the insights into the psyches of both of them, especially Bruce. And the Michael/Pieter for the sadness and wistfulness of it, laced with happiness.

*hugs Jen again*

I suppose Michael/Pieter because I'd never seen it before and you do it so nicely.

I haven't come across anyone else writing them either, which is strange. Their scenes together are just so wonderful, but no one except me seems to write them!

Angst isn't one of my favorite genres but I like the way you write it...

Me?? Writing Angst??? Surely not. ;)

I'm quite happy with what you write. I think you could probably write a good Tim/Kon or Dick/Tim, maybe? But I like the way you have things now, pretty much. :)

*grins* There's a little Tim/Kon in the ficlet I'm going to post in a minute! :)

I really, really loved the Beauty and the Beast retelling somehow.

For all the trouble that one gave me, I'm really glad it was, and still is, so liked!

The story with Bruce drowning...I'm not sure if it's "favorite" but I know it made an indelible, haunting impression on me.

*hugs Jen and Bruce* That one left its mark on me, too.

And anything with Charlie. :)

*grins* Charlie makes everything better! :p

The blinded Bruce (edit: that should be Deaf, of course!)series continues to pique my interest. :)

I've given all of that that I've got written to Mina, sooo... Maybe, maybe, the next part may show up in the distant future! ;)

Thank you for taking the time to do this, Jen! :D *glomps*

gah! You WERE The one who wrote Nightwing/Legolas! I THOUGHT so. Kudos on that one, and for making it believable.
