So we've been working for a while now -- and by 'we,' I mean taraoshea and porpentine -- at giving my website a total overhaul. Because of the way my brain works (which is not like your Earth brains), this means Tara designs the new graphics and layout, Chris implements them, and then I start doing the new site text, because I can't 'see' where the new text should go until I have the old text in place on the shiny new layout. So poor Chris is going to do a huge amount of heavy lifting and then immediately get hammered with textual updates. Feel for him.
In an effort to keep him from killing me, I figure I should start prepping some of the text now, while I still have a little wiggle room. So I present to you...
What goes into my FAQ?
Obviously, there needs to be a section on filk, as well as the absolutely required section on writing. What do you want to see there? What makes sense? What have you always wanted to know, but been afraid to ask? What have you put into your own FAQs?
How did you get your start as a writer/songwriter/artist?
Who was your childhood hero/what did you want to be when you grew up?
How do you get your book ideas?
Do you base your characters on real people/How are you like your characters?
Will you read my MS and tell me I'm awesome? (I suggest a link to the Writing Tips you've been doing.)
Will X thing ever happen in Y book?/Will A and B characters ever have hot monkey sex?/Why did you kill my favorite redshirt Fred?
Will you tell us a funny story about writing? (Will you tell us a funny story about whatever-you-do seems to be a frequent panel/Q&A question, so you should probably just be prepared for it in general.)
Pirates/Monkeys vs. Ninjas/Robots?
If all of your characters had a fight, who would win?
