Oh! I've been meaning to drop this meme on y'all for a while! Ganked from approximately half my writing f-list. O.o

Give me the title of a story I've never written, and feedback telling me what you liked best about it, and I will tell you any of: the first sentence, the last sentence, the thing that made me want to write it, the biggest problem I had while writing it, why it almost never got posted, the scene that hit the cutting room floor but that I wish I'd been able to salvage, or something else that I want readers to know.

You guys know my fandoms! If I don't know it, I'll make something up.

Their last names. *sighs dreamiliy* I remember looking at your summary and being, like, "WTF? (a) Betsy has to be a genius to pull this off (which I already know you are, but whatever), and (b) I like the last name Pevensie!" But I love how well the last names fit. They just roll off the tongue. ALSO, I really enjoyed Lucy's mother being being possibly more happy-go-lucky than Lucy.

You had to cut Susan & Peter shopping? NOW I HAVE TO SEE THIS. *puppy dog eyes*

Kyoshi is automatically awesome. There is no questioning this.

I almost didn't include Lucy's mom at all, but I ended up really liking the tiny glimpse we did get of her. She was a lot of fun to write! And man, I was so annoyed when I had to cut the shopping scene, because I had loved writing it.

Possibly the most interesting thing was considering where Kyoshi had come from, and I extrapolated from her sternness and very calm consideration of killing someone if it's needed to make her an army brat - it was also a really fun chance to explore the Avatar world. XD
