Today we're having the most talented taekook author akuma_reverie
1. Can you tell us about yourself? -Soo...Hi! I go by the name Zeri (not my real name, lol), I'm seventeen years old and live in India. I'm a science major and biology is just my life. I'm someone whose head is filled with millions of dreams. I love to write, make up random scenarios in my head while listening to music and overthink way too much. Lol, I don't know what else to write 〒▽〒
2. While writing "fake boyfriend" what was actually going inside your mind when you wrote the title "happy ending" and gave everyone a heartbreak?
-Lmao! The 'Happy Endings' chapter is probably one of the most hated chapter in fake boyfriend. To be honest, the first book was supposed to end with a happy ending and there was no need for a second book. But, my sadistic side one day decided to add in a little heartbreak and ruin everyone's happiness (sorry, but I like being a villain sometimes:)) When the readers read the chapter name 'Happy Endings' they all probably had the idea that the book was to end with a happy ending. Sadly, it wasn't 'the happy ending' they were looking for. Hehe.
Author nim if breaking hearts was a crime, you would be in jail by now
(ノಥ,_｣ಥ)ノ彡┻━┻
3. How did you come with roachie ( a cockroach) love story "in love or not to love?"
-*hysterically laughs* I never thought of writing a cockroach love story. I was just bored and wanted something exciting and something to ease the readers after the intense angst parts in the second book. So that's when I came up with the idea. Lmao! This was probably one of the weirdest part I've ever written. I remember wheezing while writing this in the night when everyone was asleep. Thankfully nobody woke up from my weird snorting XD I thought the readers might find it weird, but I was glad when they had a good laugh while reading it!
It was the most romantic story I've seen lol
4. Any new book which is coming out?
-Oh yes! Now that I'm on track with my studies and my health, I've finally decided to write another book. This new book, however, is a total contrast to the comedic 'Fake Boyfriend'. It's going to be a dark, sorta angsty book and to be honest, I'm pretty excited about this one. This is probably the first time writing something horror and dark. It might come out somewhere in the mid of march depending on the amount of time I have to write it. Hope you're looking forward to it!
5. Rather than taekook, any other ship you like?
-My favorite one is probably Namjin. They just give that married couple vibes, and I love it! I do like other ships too.
Namjin is superior 🧎🏻♀️
6. Tips for baby writers?
-Just write what you want to write. If you ever feel like there's a book that you want but can't find it anywhere, then sit down and write it down. If ever you feel like you're lacking in something, try referring to other books or maybe take advices from other writers too. Don't worry about the number of views or the number of votes. Write the book you love :)
7. Something you keep in mind before writing an book?
-The character's personality. And the plot, but mostly the personality of the characters. Sometimes I have a tendency to stray from the character's personality and this causes a lot of problems. Other that that there is nothing else I take too much in thought. The plot just sort of flows until a writer's block comes and ruins everything.
8. Trope that you hate?
-The kind of story where there is an abusive or a cold, toxic relationship that slowly turns into love. Like what?!?! I hate that kind of trope. I mean, how can something abusive turn into love. It's just my personal opinion, but I just don't understand why people seriously read those kind of books (¬_¬ )
You can if they are as handsome as BTS :) okay I'm Kidding
9. Why did you choose vkook to be the representatives of your book? -Fake Boyfriend in my mind was a bubbly, hilarious sort of book with loads of fun and nothing too serious. When I came up with the plot, my mind just sort of registered that vkook was a perfect match for this. At the starting, I had decided it to be Namjin based, but there were parts that didn't match well with it so I went for vkook.
10. Anything you wanna say to your fans?
-I want to say thank you all for reading my books and for those heartwarming messages to which I come back to read every time. I want to sincerely thank those you who were with me while I was updating my books for their constant support and for patiently waiting for my updates. I wouldn't be where I was without your love and your support! Love you all and I wish you all infinite happiness! ❤ <3
