writethisfanficHow is the writing going today?
Discussion: using real events. Do you ever draw from real life events and experiences for your fic?
I find it depends on what I'm writing but also how I can make certain events and situations fit my characters and who they are as people, so to speak. Pretty much if I find that I have to use something from the real world I will and I also always make sure that there is nothing identifiable to myself, in terms of my offline life.
