BEHIND THE NAME

ACatWhoWrites has been my writing username for about ten years or so. I first started writing under CatGirlPrime and then Canadaphile, following my anime investments at the time. I wanted something that was neutral, as far as fandoms went, and still reflected my interests. Cats have always been my number one; family and friends associate me with cats. It fit. (Fun fact: If I was more of a furry, my fursona would be a ginger tabby cat or a panda. The orange-striped cat in my icons and the gif below is Jinglez, my sort-of mascot.)

BACKGROUND

I’ve been writing stories since elementary school, at least. I have always been the "artistic" and "creative" one among my classmates and family, whether the art was drawing or writing.

Mystery books were a big influence growing up; I read a lot of Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys, my brother introduced me to Boxcar Children, etc. Now, I still like mysteries, but I don’t really write many. I’m weak for cute stories and less drama.

I've never outlined my stories. I just sit and write whatever comes to me. (I don't recommend it; I suffer so much.)

I pretty much never talk about my stories or AUs unless asked; however, I do love talking about them. That’s why I used to say I write more in comments than fic. (The actual stats have changed; I don't read or write nearly as much as I used to.) I Talking about my stories or with other writers about their stories is a lot of fun, and I miss it. Ideas are more appealing than actual completed stories, I've found, and I enjoy commenting back and forth and making threads of spitballed ideas and suggestions and collaborative thoughts.
