Featureds for January
by shadowsowner888 1/2/2010, 2:19 pm
Woohoo! xP Finally updated, lol.
~`~`~Story~´~´~
Wheee! A tie! xP Sure Mo and I don't get our separate glory, but I think it's lovely all the same. Let's talk about Komoda's first, shall we? Komoda2000 is the author of Beyond Reflections, an awesome story depicting Penny's struggles through a world in which she knows some things that other people don't. Then there's mine, Wolf Chasers, which is about a girl who lives in a tribe of shapeshifters.
Interviews:
Beyond Reflections:
What was your inspiration for BR? How long have you had the idea?
I was inspired by a number of different things. My friend Hayley wrote a lot of cool stories and I wanted to try, so that's why I started it in the first place. Then the writers on Twig encouraged me to write even more.
No idea what my inspiration for the actual plot was, though... Probably a combination of The Skeleton Key, Supernatural, The Grudge, and The Unborn (all movies and TV shows). Although, I started writing it already before watching the latter two. 
Was it fun to write the story? How easy was it?
Some parts were pretty fun to write, especially all the romancey ones. XP It's a generally easy story to write but since the MC is an adult and I'm a teen, that makes it a little bit harder, I s'pose.
Why do you think other members like the story?
Lol, I'm not too sure. Maybe Bane has something to do with it? XD Well, it's pretty romancey but there's a lot of fantasy at the same time, so maybe that's why.
What's your favorite part of it, personally?
I like lots of the parts. I like most of the parts with Razz, all the romancey parts, and especially Chapter 5-6.
Wolf Chasers:
What was your inspiration for WC? How long have you had the idea?
*scratches head* Oh gosh . . . I think it was this freewrite type thing that I just randomly started writing. xD I pretty much put it down on the spot and worked out the details as I went along. I know that wanting to base characters on animals was a part of it, though. And I think it started a few months ago.
Was it fun to write the story? How easy was it?
It was definitely fun, and a lot easier than some of my other stories. I could just sit down and do whatever I wanted with it, because I had like no expectations for WC whatsoever except for having a little fun writing. xD
Why do you think other members like the story?
Romance? xD Possibly. But I may just be copying Mo's answer a bit.
What's your favorite part of it, personally?
Hmm . . . I like the ending. x3 It's one of most cliffhangerish I've ever written, but I love it.
Second runner-ups - A Bad Day in the World of Smelly Socks and Ugly Uniforms by Mouse, and Child by littletoes101.
~`~`~Poem~´~´~
Inadequate, a song composed by yours truly, is . . . not fiction. The author states that it is her favorite poetic composition so far, and that she wrote it after giving up on her crush. You can listen to her singing it via the link below.

Interview:
What was your inspiration for Inadequate? How long have you had the idea?
Jamie, Jamie, and more Jamie. xP I came up with it on the spot, and it was back in October.
Was it fun to write the song? How easy was it?
Definitely enjoyable, but not so easy. It's one of those pieces I had to really take my time on. But it turned out better as a result!
Why do you think other members like the song?
I'm not sure. xD Because . . . of the formatting! Yeah! (Yeah right. xD)
What's your favorite part of it, personally?
The music. :3
Second runner-up - Forever Alone by Komoda2000.
~`~`~Roleplays~´~´~
Another tie!! Lol, well, this one's not so bad, as both roleplays are owned by Jesus4Eternity. Pretty spectacular an accomplishment, Amanda! The Twilight Saga's gonna go first cus I feel like it. This one is a fanfic RP about, quite obviously, Twilight. Then there's Ridgeway Junior High, another fanfic one about the iCarly television series.
Interviews:
The Twilight Saga:
What was your inspiration for the RP? How long have you had the idea?
The Twilight Saga books were the foundation, and I pretty much built off that. I let all of us crazy twilighters have a place to marry our twi-guys.
At least since the site opened, 'cause it was, like, the first roleplay in Humanoids, I think. I probably would have tried to get one up on WI, if someone already hadn't and we were actually allowed. xD
Was it fun to make it? How easy was it?
It actually was pretty fun, 'cause I got to fill out this awesome character form for Jasper. Being a crazy twilighter myself, it wasn't that hard to just get the basics down, and just let all my twilightness out.
Why do you think other members like the roleplay?
Because other people like the Twilight Saga, and they want to be in it. Obvoiusly, Stephenie Meyer isn't going to write them in, so they have to do it themselves. They can enter the world of vampires and shapeshifters whenever they want (or whenever someone who wants to roleplay is on. xD)
What's your favorite part of it, personally?
I have to have one favorite part? Seriously? xD, I'll list my faves.
The Jasper and Amanda couple.
Wormeh and I coming up with random noun/adjective things that end with 'ness', which all started with Mort and the Shovel of DOOM!
The friends I got close to because I roleplayed there.
Ridgeway Junior High:
What was your inspiration for the RP? How long have you had the idea?
The television show iCarly, which my sister was obsessed with. xD
Um... not long, I guess. I do owe my inspiration to Puggles, though, 'cause she made the iCarly Club, which probably helped me think of the idea. You rock, Puggles! xD
Was it fun to make it? How easy was it?
This one was really fun to make, 'cause I got to give all these random shout outs to Sam about violence. xD It was easy as well, and is now easier because I don't have to hand out the original charries. xD
Why do you think other members like the roleplay?
Well, we need some place to be random! And they love iCarly. xD
What's your favorite part of it, personally?
Roleplaying with Pugs. She plays a very good Spencer.
Second runner-up - All Around Us by Miss_Alice.
~`~`~Member~´~´~
What's that sound I hear? T . . . i . . . e!! Another tie! Jade and iGrievous are a pair of our fantastic mods who I'm sure we all love.
Interviews:
iGrievous:
Why did you decide to join Twig? How did you hear about it?
I joined TWIG when Shadow, at that time sitting beside me told me it was done. I rushed on the website and became a member. I heard about it from her.
How long have you been writing? What attracts you to writing?]
I started to 'officially' write, I think, somewhere in the middle of 2009. I love writing 'cause I can have reference to real life situations, and make them turn out how I like. And anything can happen, plus the computer won't ridicule all my dark secrets.
How did you choose your username? Do you have any interesting nicknames?
I like Apple
, and anything made by them and some o' their products have a lowercase I before the actual name. I put that on Grievous, 'cause General Grievous is so cool. I don't exactly have any nicknames, just Gri or something of the such on this site, and I call myself Tyson Mapledawn, but nobody calls me that.
What was your first composition?
My first composition was The Epic Adventures of Greg White, I think. . .
What's your favorite color, and why? Favorite animal?
dark red, and I think either bald eagles or wolves.
What kind of music do you like, and why? Do you have a writing playlist?
I like Foo Fighters, and the All-American Rejects, and I especially love the Lord of the Rings soundtracks. The closest thing I have to a writing playlist is called N's R[eturn]o[f]t[he]K[ing] Faves.
If you owned the site, what would you change and why? What would you keep the same?
I would be an admin! And that's it. This site is great already.
Jade:
Why did you decide to join TWG? How did you hear about it?
I was on WI and then I heard talk that Shad was making a site and then I asked her for the link and she gave it to me!
How long have you been writing? What attracts you to writing?
I've been writing forever, I don't know when I started. I love how writing has no limits, there's nothing you can't write.
How did you choose your username? Do you have any interesting nicknames?
It was originally warmblood12211 but then I grew tired of people calling me "warmblood" so I just changed it to my name, Jade
What was your first composition?
I honestly don't remember
What's your favorite color, and why? Favorite animal?
I love purple because it's girly but not obiously so like pink. I love moose and gorillas, I have no idea why ^-^
What kind of music do you like, and why? Do you have a writing playlist?
I like pretty mainstream stuff. I guess I mix of pop and rap, mainly pop though. I don't have a writing playlist, but maybe I will make one soon soon!
If you owned the site, what would you change and why? What would you keep the same?
I would change the color and the banner. I think they're both super pretty but I feel like we're starting to need a change.
Second runner-up - Ave
