New Year Fanfic Ask Meme #11, 12, 14. :)

11. Would you like to try any new fanfic genres or tropes in 2018?
Always! Only I’m not quite sure what I haven’t done. *thinks* historical maybe? The Beauty and the Tragedy was more gothic/fantasy. Oh heist! I do have that on my list. Hmm I can’t think of anything else, anyone care to help me out? 🙂

As for tropes I always find those hard. You know those author questions when it says favourite trope/hated trope? My mind instantly goes blank and I can’t think of any tropes and it’s the same with this. I wish there was a reference list, that would be so helpful.

12. Will you change anything about the way you edit or rewrite in 2018?
I don’t think so because my method has developed over years of practice. I’m not saying it’s a good method but it works for me *shrugs*

14. Have you ever lost large chunks of your work in the past, due to not backing up your work? Will you change your methods in 2018?
Actually *touch wood quick* I’ve never lost any work. I don’t delete anything either which is why I’ve got 20 year old stories on my hard drive. They are awful because I was nine but they exist.

I keep everything on an external hard drive in case something happens and I need to wipe the PC. I also have a memory stick backup, an email backup and a google drive backup. This is weird because this only applies to my creative files, I’m terrible at remembering to backup anything else. So if the question was “have you ever lost anything important?” then ohhhhhh yes 🙁
