Braveten: A Witty and Spontaneous Writer is a 2017 interview with Braveten, a Yuri!!! on Ice fanfic writer. She was interviewed by Sarabel from the Yuuri/Victor fanfic blog, viktuurificwriters.

Excerpts

I bet everybody in the Yuri on Ice fandom already knows braveten. She’s only seventeen, but three of her works are already part of the top twenty Yuri on Ice fanfics that have garnered the most number of kudos in AO3. She is the writer who brought us All the World’s a Stage, Centripetal Force, The Fundamentals of Caring, and eight other entertaining stories. She has made us smile, laugh, cry, and has moved our hearts in a way that one can never forget.

Braveten (@actualyuuri ) randomly gets ideas for her fics from just about anything at any time. The ideas would keep bothering her and keep developing in her head until she sits down and writes them.

“I normally just jump right into it,” answered braveten, when asked what her writing process is like. “If I plan too much, I can start to lose interest in the idea or get stuck writing a specific plot line. So I’ll write out a rough draft of the idea as soon as I have it, edit, and then post!”

With the way that braveten writes, the plot usually develops itself along the way. She also shared that she has never had the ending of a story planned out when she starts writing.

And I guess that explains the carefree and spontaneous feel of her stories. Her stories are light, easy to read, and mostly very fluffy (I even kept squealing about how sweet Viktor and Yuuri are in her fics while I was reading them). Her works are a good choice to read on lazy Saturday afternoons to get rid of boredom or when you’re feeling down and need something to cheer you up. The stories are not comedy, per se, but the way she writes them can certainly make you laugh out loud.
