So I'm still browsing the artwork of mr unpronoucable in previous post, and I'm thinking really, what's up with me? It's like a race to the bottom of everything horrible with me, it's like there's nothing bad enough ever. So maybe I'm just made up of sugar and spice and all things nice, whiskers on kittens and warm woolen mittens, and I have to get my horrible from an outside source?

Or maybe I'm just a warped little fucker who's first foray into creative writing was a point of view deathfic which freaked the teacher?

Dear Self

The point at which you're turning around to make sure it isn't coming up behind you is a sign you've had enough creepypasta.

No love, no sleep.

Me.

Stolen from just about everyone (it's like the meme equivalent of smallpox)

1 – How did you first get into writing fanfic, and what was the first fandom you wrote for? What do you think it was about that fandom that pulled you in?

I think my story is a lot like many fanfiction authors, I got in during the massive lag between Harry Potter books 4 and 5. I was a Potter nut, and I wanted my fix, and when it was obvious I wouldn't be getting it from Rowling any time soon, I went online and found stuff that was just as good and, in the end, actually better.

I actually started writing short introspective one-shots about the only characters I really cared about: Voldemort and the Death Eaters. Most of my fics are still on my ff.net page becuase I still don't hate them enough to take them down. I never wrote Mary Sues and while I did often go off on a tangent with the world, the only remotely embarrassing thing I wrote was a songfic, and my beta taught me very firmly a rule I have seen the truth of every day of my fandom life: There are marvellous heartbreaking songfics out there. Yours is not one of them.
I still don't like reading that fic, it's too embarrassing. I took out the lyrics, but I can still feel them there! Killed my love for that song as well.

I liked, adn in a way still do like Harry Potter becuase at the time I got into fandom, JKR's world was still growing, we were finding out more and more about it and there were a thousand story 'hooks' in there to play with. Unfortunately after that she started closing off her world and explaining everything, and making all the characters completely unlikeable (still love Voldemort though), so I had a *rageblackout* since HBP and haven't written since. I might be staggering back into it thanks to a great many fantastic fanficcers who wrote stories completely eviscerating JKR crapsack world, but don't expect any fics soon.
