Writing about Writing - Day 1

I was tagged by [livejournal.com profile] mindseas to write about writing for thirty days.  I have a list of questions to answer for each of those days. Welcome to my world of processes:

1. Tell us about your favorite writing project/universe that you've worked with and why.

A favorite!? I must choose between my babies?  Ahem, I guess I better get used to it. Having read [livejournal.com profile] mindsea 's responses to the questions, I know I'll be asked about favorite characters and such, too.

Because it was my first, The Traveler's Daughter will always be a favorite.  I learned and put so much into it, it burned in me with all the power of a first love, that I'll never be able to capture that again. At least I don't think I will.

I love all my projects, but TTD really obsessed me. It still does...because I didn't end up with what I think to be a marketable story.

I'm still looking to get obsessed like that with my other stories.  I think I will with Witherwilds, but I need a little more meat to chew, I need the characters and story to start gelling just a little bit more, and then I think it will be mad love. At least I hope.  I thrive on obsession. :P

What a fun project! I look forward to reading all of them!

It is interesting thinking about writing in this way. There are questions in the list that have never crossed my mind in any form or fashion.

I'm sure you'll be able to go back to TTD one day and make it work. In the meanwhile, revel in Witherwilds!

Yes, someday... In the meantime, I'm reveling, I'm reveling! :)

Mad love and writing? This is possible? ;)

It was with TTD, so I'm hoping I can have that fantastic combo again. :D

That's like asking you to pick a favorite child... mean!

I know!!! How cruel and usual of some questionnaires! :P

Yes, some day you'll be able to revisit TTD. You never get over that first love...

*nods* It'll forever smolder.
