1 - Is there a story you’re holding off writing for some reason.
I don’t know if there’s anything I’m ‘holding off’ writing, but I do have about three gazillion plot bunny ideas ready to go that I haven’t written. One of my favorite plot bunnies that I’ve never touched for unknown reasons was an early one - someone had framed Steve and Tony for treason. Pepper gets Tony out of bed in the early early hours of the morning, Tony rushes to pick Steve up on his morning pre-dawn run, and they run off to a farm in the middle of no where to hide until they can figure out what’s going on. I have it pretty detailed, but it just never tickled me enough to put it on paper.
23- Any obscure life experiences that you feel have helped your writing?
Hmm… I don’t know if I’ve had any ‘obscure’ life experiences (but how do you define an ‘obscure life experience’ anyways? Maybe someone who spent their childhood wrestling alligators?) but I moved around a lot as a kid (a lot - I attended 4 different high schools).
For a young person, that tends to mean isolation and (at least in my case) a lot of introspection, reading, and writing. I also developed a contrary-streak about 6.5 miles wide, which translates to writing for me as “Oh, you think this thing can’t be done? Just you watch me.”
