buttercup: do you prefer to write requests or come up with your own things? (Let me know if this has been asked, and I’ll send in another question)

It hasn’t been asked 🙂 Thank you! *hugs*

This is a tricky one because I’m not sure. On one hand I like requests a) because they are basically prompts and they get my mind spinning and coming up with ideas is fun, b) because I like making people happy. Plus I’m a shallow creature and hopefully with a request at least one person will then say something nice.

On the other hand with all the prompts and requests I do I don’t get the time to write many of my own ideas. I try and get round this sometimes by making the prompts fit my existing ideas but that often doesn’t work. I came up with the ideas because I loved them and it’s a bit like they are taunting me. I want to write ALL THE THINGS but life gets in the way. Mostly I’m just too tired and of course everything takes time.

So yeah I’m not sure. I guess I should pick rather than just say I like both because unfortunately – time – means I do have to choose what to write. Ugh I don’t know!! Pros and cons to both. I guess ultimately probably I like my own ideas best but you see requests become my own ideas too, so it’s all stuff I love to write – impossible question.
