INTERVIEW # 31
Original poster: snarrymod
Your Name: TreeWishes
Your Team: Angst
1. What made you decide to agree to compete in these games?
Because I have had so little time to write over the last year or so, and now things are opening up a bit. And I thought this would be a great way to get back in the game.
2. Why did you choose the Angst Team?
Well, I love both. But I think angst is the thing that gives a story depth, and I love learning more about relationships and life, both by reading and writing it. And when both angst and romance are combined, it's just so, so satisfying.
3. Have you always been interested in the Severus Snape/Harry Potter dynamic?
Yes, from the very beginning!
4. What is more challenging to you – working WITH strict canon or working AROUND strict canon?
I like the challenge of finding a clever way to work with canon, to weave a story in the holes the author leaves in a story and make it work.
5. What motivates you?
Part of it is that I love telling stories. But more, I love talking about slash and slashy topics with friends.
6. Do you have plans for (or are you already writing) original fiction?
No -- I don't see the point.
7. What three things are necessary for you to enjoy a story you are reading?
Clever writing, in character, and SLASH.
8. What are your Top 5 favourite fanfiction stories?
This is too difficult! My "desert island" list is far bigger than five! Perhaps I could list my five favourite HP authors (and my favorite stories of theirs)? (In alphabetical order) Amanuensis - Better to Curse the Darkness, Aucta Sinistra - Scratch, Dementor Delta - Parseltongue-Tied, Rushlight - Walking the Mirror's Edge, and Telanu - A Wizard's Song.
9. Do you have a story (any fandom) you've done that you are most proud of? Would you link it here for us?
Sorry -- not much is available to link! (Note to self, fix that!) But I can point to this short story in Dead Zone fandom: http://www.yuletidetreasure.org/arc
10. Are you excited about the Games?
Oh, yes!! I have some close friends on Team Romance, and let me just say there is quite a bit at stake!
Thank you, treewishes!
