Interview with Viviana

Name / Username: Viviana / Viviloana

Favorite book you've written: I am working on my first two stories right now and of the two, Con Artist Legacy would be my favorite. I have been living with the characters for almost an year, and have been carefully weaving in a pretty complex mystery.

What inspired your story? I love reading and I think my over-active imagination is a common side affect of that. I have multiple characters milling around in my head, and I spend a lot of time playing out different scenarios (I know I sound like a crazy person). My little sister finally convinced me to write one of the stories!

How did you hear about Wattpad? I was looking for websites to read for free, and my search led me to Wattpad. 

Questions about my story: Fan-fictions usually fail because they're never like the original, so I have always wondered about your writing process.  It's a rather extreme word, but I suppose it works in this case. I basically obess over whatever person or theme my story is based on. With SHERLOCK, I listen to the entire show while I write, I read the original stories, and also watch interviews of the actors/actress to get a solid mental picture of them. 

Overall rating (1-10) of SHERLOCK: 1, 2, & 3: 10's all around, even if I haven't read the third story. It is bound to be great. 

How did you hear about it? I found it in the SYS club, and was immediately excited. I love mysteries, Sherlock and good writing. 

Favorite character and/or scene: Sherlock Holmes without a doubt, especially in the first book. I love his deductions and the banter...so true to the character. As a mystery reader, I can usually guess where the story is going, but this was expertly done. 

Short Review: Sherlock I, II, & III is such a clever piece of writing with intricate, yet still convincing crime plots. It is well written and easy to follow, the stories read like they could be excerpts from the originals.

Would you recommend it to others? Absolutely. I would actually recommend all of her stories, there is a mature level to her work that I think many here would appreciate.
