Your Favorite Part of Writing a Story

I lovelovelove creating characters. I am definitely a character-driven writer rather than a plot-driven one.

I also enjoy writing really emotional scenes. I'm usually not too great at writing super happy scenes (unless it's drug-induced joy, haha), but I like writing really angry/sad/whatever scenes.

^ Hehe, above statements, I can totally agree with.

When writing original fiction, I LOVE coming up with their names.
And creating a whole new universe in which for them to live in.
It's just amazing, the feeling of shaping up some new and unique people. When they start acting and adding bits to their own personalities, then it gets cool. And scary.

I also love the really over emotional sad scenes. The imagery and emotional metaphors and similes I manage to come up with tear me every time. It's so... disturbingly beautiful- and for some strange reason I love it. I think it's an outlet for all the pain I've felt before, but, it still interests me to write it- even though I can't talk about it or come to terms with it in real life.

I'm not all overly-emotional and depressive loving though. My other favourite bits are writing random little details about characters and their habits. It just fascinates me, and including the weirdest things. Small, insignificant details that just add the realistic touch to it. I love doing those.

Oh and my final love, is when you've been trying to get some meaningful plot to develop for days, and then suddenly you're writing and it just comes to you. I love that, it's as if the story has surprised you. Then you write it and can't wait to see what the readers think, if it surprises them too. It's magic.

As crazy as it sounds, I love writing the begining. There's no rules, and you can do whatever you want and the readers will go along with it. It's the funniest part :D

I don't have a favorite part of writing my stories. I love every moment of writing it.

Making the characters, the very beginning, shwing everyone the world my characters live in, making problems for them, the really important scenes... Heck, I even love writing the fillers in between the important stuff. Writing the story is just magic to me. Sometimes I can't believe some of the things I write came out of a small thought I had earlier that day the first chapter gets written.

The build-up before the climax to a story, I love writing those.

And figuring out the endings/sequels. A story I recently started, One Step Further, has only three chapters, but I've already pictured the endings/certain scenes in my head and I can't wait to write them.

Outlining and researching stuff for my story. It's so fun creating another world or life for another person and having to control every move and every action. It just makes you feel like you have infinite power, lol.

But I love creating, basically. Creating anything. Characters, storylines, dialogues, emotions, settings, whatever. All you need is just words. As they say, "Talk is cheap." :D

I love creating the storyline and the personality of the characters.

I love when everything kind of falls into place in my head and you don't have to think about writing it at all, cause it just comes without having to predetermine what's gonna happen.
It makes sense in my head

I love writing the relationships between characters, especially the two that are in love with each other. I love showing their passion... And call me kinky, but I love writing sex scenes.

... Eheheh... ^^;;

Probably (and I dunno if I've posted here before or not ) the climax of the story, which for me is where the two main characters get together. It's all

This is more to do with one-shots and short stories...but when you finish it, and you realise that you've put everything you could into it, and you get that happy/proud feeling.

EDIT: Oh, and I have a weird fetish for writing sad stories/scenes.

Reading positive comments.

Creating characters, especially what they look like and who they know and stuff.

Setting up the setting and then describing it.

Creating characters. I love it, and also writing those really important scenes you've had in your head for ages.

i love writing ideas down

I love creating characters.
Embarrassing to admit, but I get completely absorbed in my characters; it seems as though I know them.
Maybe because they come from such a place where I pull them from actual real people I know. Not all of their traits, but various ones here and there.
So, in a sense, I guess, they are real.
I just love love love characters (:

I love my characters a little too much.

But I really go wild when I get to create backstory It's so much fun xD

I love writing endings. Sad, happy, ambiguous, whatever. I just love them, as difficult as they can be sometimes, especially when you've really gotten attached to the characters and story.

This, so much. Even the minor characters who only have like one mention have a ton of backstory. Making characters is just way too much fun.
