When I first started reading hanfic, I’ll admit, I loved all the smut. Short, sexy stories are what I most associate with our fandom, and they’re something I feel like we’ve been lacking for the last few years. Here to help fix that is Olivia, whose writing hearkens back to that wonderful, smutty era of hanfic.
You can read her stories on her LiveJournal, here. She has some great oneshots and just started posting a longer series titled The Importance of Being Disciplined.
Why did you start writing hanfic? How long have you been writing?
I started writing hanfic recently after finding the band again after “Anthem”, however I’ve been writing for about 15 years.
What’s your favorite genre/pairing to write and why?
Het Smut, Reader/Hanson.
What are your favorite hanfic stories and authors?
Crystal (oceaneyez86), Elizabeth (withasmile87), Candystix (thesweetshoppe), and Amber (ahopper84).
What is your writing process like?
My ideas come to me about the most random stuff and if I get an idea it has to be finished right then, otherwise I never finish it.
Where do your ideas and inspiration come from?
I wish I had a deeper answer for this but Taylor’s butt, Zac’s front and Isaac’s shoulders and voice are always a great inspiration for smut.
Which stories are you most proud of having written?
Cravings.
Favorite songs to listen to while you write or which inspire your writing?
Take My Time, Too Young To Kill, and Tearing It Down.
Thank you, Olivia, for being the October spotlight and for bringing good ole fashioned smut back! 😉
