I know it's already the 9th, but I found this on ig, so I'll be doing this anyway! I'll post answers both here and in my ig stories.
1) Introduction:
I'm Chuu! This is my 10th Nano! I did my first in 2007, and have done it every year since, except...2015 and 2016 I think?

2) October goals:
Generally to do as little as possible to charge up, but at the very least to have a basic idea of what I'll be writing in November

3) Plotter or Pantser?
Plantser-ish. I have a vague idea of the main plot, and usually the ending, but I mostly let the characters lead the way

4) Your genre?
Boys Love!
Boys Love!
5) Why you write:
mmh, I don't really know? I started writing stories as soon as I learned to write, and it's always been what I wanted to do. Now I write the kind of stories I'd like to read! Haha~

7. Week 1 check-in:
...what does that even mean? Week 1 of October? Idk, I spent that week dressing in orange and decorating! Not a writing thought in sight

8. Biggest distractions:
The cat always wanting to 'help' and twitter.
Also, an unstable internet connection - I might not NEED the internet while writing, but knowing that it's not working drives me nuts

9. Writing music:
I usually make the playlist as I go, adding songs that fit with the story, a certain scene or sets the mood.

10. Logline:
"Two fanfic writers meet in the same coffee shop every week to work on their collaboration. But what's that between the lines?"

11. Inspiration:
Comes from anywhere and nowhere at the same time. Usually while I'm out walking, brushing my teeth or listening to music. But when I write, I'm a machine, and it just flows.

12. Where you write:
In my regular spot on my couch, leaning back, maybe under a duvet, legs propped up on the table (until my circulation cuts off)

13. Writing Fuel:
Caffeine. Buckets of it. Multiple types of pringles, and a donut or two.

14. Week 2 Check-in:
Not much to say. I've found my idea as you can see earlier in this thread, and other than that, I have a few daily moments of panic as the words 'NaNo is coming' enter my brain
