Mibbian of the Week: takari anore

takari anore is a long time Mibbian, making the move during the Great Quizilla Migration. In this week’s edition of Mibbian of the Week, she’s here to tell us a little bit more about herself!

How long have you been on Mibba?

I've been hanging around Mibba for longer than I can remember. I remember when Mibba was first becoming the cool new writing website that everyone switched over to from Quizilla (before TeenNick bought it in 2006). I made the switch a little before that.

What brought you to the site?

The fall of Quizilla and the fact that so many people I knew on Quizilla switched over here helped too.

When did you start writing?

I can't remember exactly when, but I believe I seriously started writing when I was 10 or 11 (on Quizilla and in composition books).

What's your favourite genre to write in?

I can't say I really have a favorite. I write whatever comes to mind. I've written romance, sci-fi, crime/mystery, horror. Whatever I feel like at the moment.

What's your favourite part of the site?

This isn't really a favorite "part" but since joining Mibba 500 years ago, I like that it hasn't changed drastically. I like having the ability to customize layouts for stories (because those can make or break you) and being able to add HTML/BB code in the text. A lot of websites (cough, Wattpad) are "plain text" and they're just not as fun. I tried to upload a story that I'd written on Mibba onto Wattpad because it seemed like it was the cool new thing, but I got like, three chapters in before I just stopped posting it. The formatting isn't simple or sleek like Mibba's. I spent like ten minutes trying to change the font. It was a disaster.

Share some of your favourite works by other Mibbians!

Actually, I created this account solely for my story Plague. It actually ties loosely into my boyfriend's story, so if you enjoy reading mine, you should definitely check out his. He's new to Mibba, so he's still trying to get his foot in the door (also, he updates more frequently than I do). His username is w0lff123. Redemption is the prequel, and then there is the sequel, Redemption: The Kingdom That Wept. Plague takes place at the same time as TKTW. It's fun to have our stories coincide a little ;)

What's the most recent novel you read?

Honestly, I can't remember how long it's been since I've read something that hasn't been on Mibba! The last book I picked up (though it isn't a novel) was Night by Elie Wiesel. I read it before in high school, but it was a book that just really stuck with me.

Do you have a writing ritual?

I cocoon myself under the blankets and tell everyone not to talk to me because I'm in "writing mode"! I also put my cell phone out of reach.

You're stuck listening to the last song you listened to for the next month! What song is it?

"Start Me Up" - The Rolling Stones.
