If you had to describe yourself in one word, what words wouldn't you use?

Tall, Sporty, Social Butterfly

Think back to when you were in school. What was your favourite subject?

Art, Science and Literature. Hard to pick one!

When you were a young 'un, what did you want to be when you grew up?

I was a tiny kid with big dreams! I wanted to be an artist, an animator, a marine biologist, an astronomer and a writer.

What does Tevun-Krus mean to you?

An awesome haunt for those who dream beyond the horizon—and into the far reaches of the universe (or multiverse).

Tell us about your reading/writing habits.

I live and breathe stories in all their forms! I read, draw and animate stories. While I have written articles, short stories and scripts for animation, a full length novel has been a whole new experience. Komoreby is my first finished novel—which I now have here on Wattpad.

As a kid, I've read any and all books I could get my hands on—classics, fairy tales, scientific books like The Private Life of Plants, my mom's non-fiction books on parapsychology, hundreds of Enid Blyton books, comics and more. My favorites were Enid Blyton, Harry Potter, Animorphs and Roald Dahl! To this day, I love these stories—along with kids' books like Diary of a Wimpy Kid, How To Train Your Dragon, Anne Fine and Goosebumps.

Then came my fascination with crime fiction—Nancy Drew, Agatha Christie, Hardy Boys, Mary Higgins Clark and all of Sherlock Holmes. The awesome fantasy books I loved—The Lord of the Rings, Everworld, The Name of the Wind, Narnia and Eragon. After that, my love for horror, adventure and thriller—Dan Brown, Robin Cook, Michael Crichton, Matthew Reilly, Stephen King, Jeffery Deaver, Jeffrey Archer, James Patterson and Robert Harris. I also had a thing for Greek mythology and history—which is why I took Greek & Roman Civilization at school. I read and studied Homer, Virgil, Aristophanes, Sophocles and Euripides, while spending endless hours memorizing ancient wars, politics and societies. Interspersed with these I read YA series—Hunger Games, Divergent, Maze Runner, Uglies, Meg Cabot's books, Samurai Girl, Noughts & Crosses, Sabrina and more. Yes, it's a diverse range of books. Don't get me started on the manga. As a teen, I used to read in the bathroom when my mom switched off the lights.

I'll skip ahead to my favorite genre of all—sci fi. I've read Arthur. C. Clarke's books throughout the years, and Carl Sagan's Contact made quite an impact on me. These days, I read amazing work by Stephen Baxter, Peter F. Hamilton and Alastair Reynolds—other than Wattpad books, that is.

As your crew casts your lifeless body into the heart of the nearest star, list three pieces of music likely to be rattling the bulkheads of your beloved vessel!

My taste in music is as diverse as my taste in books, but my soul gravitates towards rock and epic music. In this situation, it's going to be the latter. So, C21FX, Ivan Torrent, Ludwig Göransson, Jo Blankenburg...

But the one final song would be Hans Zimmer's ethereal masterpiece from my favorite movie of all time Interstellar—played on a cristal baschet. It makes me rise above the Pillars of Creation and experience the fifth dimension—or that's what it feels like.
