Featureds for November
by shadowsowner888 11/7/2009, 11:33 am
Sorry I put this up so late. xDD
~`~`~Story~´~´~
Here we've got The Voices in My Head, my mega-fanfiction story about what happens when your imaginary friends come alive!
-INTERVIEW-
What was your inspiration for TVIMH? How long have you had the idea?
Hmm . . . I don't remember the specific inspiration, but it was obviously Twilight and my obsession with Edward. I think I had the idea in my head for a while, but I was writing Dragon Soul, so I didn't want to start it . . . but, eventually I did. That was last year, wasn't it? Wow, time flies. xD
Was it fun to write the story? How easy was it?
Heck yeah!!
It was epic fun. Every single part. It was hard, though - because, like, you wanna do your best with the non-original characters and make them as much like they were in the original story as you can. So I worry about portraying them correctly. xD
Why do you think other members like the story?
Probably because I've actually written some of my friends into it. And I let them have their own say in the plot. Like, Dream, for instance. xD And as to everyone else . . . idk why. Maybe it's the Twilightness, or the romanceyness.
What's your favorite part of it, personally?
Hmm . . . I like . . . BATMAN.

~`~`~Poem~´~´~
Arianna is the composer of Colors, our featured poem this month! This poem really makes you think about what a gift colors are. :3
-INTERVIEW-
What was your inspiration for Colors? How long have you had the idea?
Well, I didn't really have inspiration for it. But I had just came home from school, and I got the idea for the first few lines. I haven't had it for long - I wrote it the second that it came into my head.
Was it fun to write the poem? How easy was it?
It was fun, because I already had the idea for it, so I didn't need to think very much about what I was writing. It wasn't hard, but it wasn't easy either, because sometimes lines didn't match up and I had to re-do them.
Why do you think other members like the poem?
I don't know, but I wish I did. I just like it because, well, I wrote it. xD
What's your favorite part of it, personally?
I like the fact that it's all rhetorical, and it's more a generalization than a real (or fictional) situation. I also like it because it has a kind of 'film' appearance to me, with black and white merging with color and those going back and forth. Hard to understand, but... yeah.

~`~`~Roleplays~´~´~
Half Blood Haven is a fantastic RP owned by Taylor Potter in which you can be various mythical humanoids like vampires or werewolves! Our second featured roleplay, Eat or Be Eaten is Jade's RP about a school all about cliques.
-INTERVIEWS-
Eat or Be Eaten:
EDIT- This is Jade, I'm adding in my interview
Sorry 'bout the wait guys!
What was your inspiration for Eat or Be Eaten? How long have you had the idea?
I haven't had the idea for long, to be honest XD I thought of the idea one second, and was posting it the next. I was inspired by the fact that I didn't see very many roleplays having to do with real life, not just fantasy, I thought it would be a cool idea.
Was it fun to make it? How easy was it?
It was fun to make! I liked thinking up all the different cliques schools have. That took a while though, the whole thing did.
Why do you think other members like the roleplay?
I have no idea XD I don't roleplay very much (not like the rest of you guys) so I didn't know if people would like it or not- lucky for me, they did. Thanks guys!!
What's your favorite part of it, personally?
How you can be anyone you want to, it's like a fresh start. You can be more popular, or smarter or "better" in any way! Or you can just be yourself, there are so many choices!!
Half Blood Haven:
What was your inspiration for Half Blood Haven? How long have you had the idea?
In a way Twilight, Harry Potter and the Dragon Emporium. I've had the idea since I made my first character on the DE over a year ago. I wanted her to be part vampire without her having to have a blood thirst cause WI didn't like that. Thus the half-blood was born!
Was it fun to make the roleplay? How easy was it?
Personally I thought it was fun. There's so much inner parts that make it difficult yet easy. Most of these are like full-moons, powers, what's the limit?, what's the exception? kind of things.
Why do you think other members like the RP?
I think they like it because people like vampires and werewolves. That and it's got a little something for everyone in there if you just look a bit at it.
What's your favorite part of it, personally?
Deffinately my characters and the rps I have with my buddies. My friends seem to have a knack for twisting anything into an interesting plot!

~`~`~Member~´~´~
Arianna, as well as being the composer of our featured poem, is November's featured member! She's a dedicated writer who's always willing to help others out. :3 Let's see what she has to say!
-INTERVIEW-
Why did you decide to join TWG? How did you hear about it?
I heard about it on WI (when it was still on Webs.com) and I decided to join because it sounded cool and because I was a member of the club on WI.
How long have you been writing? What attracts you to writing?
I honestly haven't been writing for long (outside school). Pretty much since the end of last school year. I like it because I can make up my own worlds and have characters who do things that I'd never do. xD
How did you choose your username? Do you have any interesting nicknames?
Well, my username is Arianna, which is also my real name. I'm called Ari by some, but other than that, not really.
What was your first composition?
Out of school, I'm sure it was some kind of story, and knowing my 7 year old self, it probably had something to do with stuffed animals or the like.
What's your favorite color, and why? Favorite animal?
My favorite color is purple. I don't know why, I just think it's pretty cool. My favorite animals are guinea pigs, probably because I have one for a pet. But cats are really sweet, too. x3
What kind of music do you like, and why? Do you have a writing playlist?
I like lots of different kinds of music. Lately I've been listening to Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus a lot. I don't have 'a' writing playlist, but for November, I've been trying to get a complete playlist for Nano. I haven't succeeded yet. xP
If you owned the site, what would you change and why? What would you keep the same?
Well, I wouldn't have much to change! All of the things which I've suggested have pretty much ended up happening. I'd love to have the whole site converted to MyBB, though, and have a better points system. I'd keep the forum structure the same, as it's organized really well, and also the member groups.

Another xD.
I am making spelling mistakes too frequently too. And the DoRD (department of redundancy department) has been making visits way too often.
I wonder if that might be a result of Nano?
