Let's play Never Have I Ever: Writer's Edition! Here's my answers, and if you want you can remix the project and give yours! 1.

Never have I ever cried while writing a scene. A: No... But I've cried after reading the scene I'd just finished 4. Never have I ever Googled something suspicious for research. A: Oh, yeah. My search history is messed up 5. Never have I ever written a kiss scene. A: Don't think so...? No, wait, I have. I don't write them often though.

A: At least once per chapter... 17. Never have I ever named a character after a crush. A: No 18. Never have I ever developed a crush on one of my villains. A: Please see question eight.
