When exactly did you have the idea to write your books?
a~ I've been writing books since I was around 8. The ideas really come and goes, and I have them all saved in my journal. But the books I loved the most to write will always be the texting books/ "the wrong number" universe. I had a tough summer when I mistreated myself and was always anxious. I sat down one night and started to write how I would imagine texting the Slytherin boys. It didn't have a storyline at first, but then the idea came to me in my sleep, and I decided to try it. Most of the ideas come from my dreams. Maybe that's why some feel so personal to me. <3
How do you select the names of your characters?
a~ Daisy was easy for me since she was so personal. Daisy is my middle name <3 My one goal has been to use names from Taylor Swift songs. Aurora (The lakes), Ivy from Ivy. Gracie...;) (Dont blame me). Some names are definitely also taken from my "future baby names" list.
In your books, what characters were made up and which were based on real-life persons?
a~ No character is taken from my real life, since I want to escape this world lmao:) No, but Daisy's background story has a lot from my life and experience. I went through the "friends-bully" thing, and I almost took my own life because of it. I've struggled with ED since I was very young, too, so daisy will always be very personal to me. The better part of Daisy is my alter ego; I might not always be as powerful as her. But I wish to be one day<3 Lilah and the other children were all based on their parents. I wanted you to see the parents in them. It was hard at first to fit both of Mattheo and Daisy in Lilah and Noah, but that's where my inspiration came from. Most of the other characters are made up from scratch.
Do you use your own life experience to write? Where did it come from?
a~ Most of it comes from my trauma, yes. It was a way for me to write it over to another person and let go of it myself. It's like writing in a journal and then burning it. I can't relate to Lily or Ivy, I didn't have a long-lost friend or a sick mother( thankfully). But some parts of my books will always have something from my life in them. I want them to feel personal to me. I don't want to look back at it and think, "who wrote this?" I want to see my thoughts through it<3
What/who were you maybe scared of when you published the first chapter?
a~ my so-called friends lmao. God Wattpad has become my escape from this world and although I don't think they would bully me for it. I wanted to keep it to myself so I can always come over here when something bad happens or I'm anxious. It's my safe place and I want to keep it that way <3
How many hours a day do you write?
a~ yesterday, I wrote 2 chapters with 2000 words each. It usually takes me around one hour to write and edit a chapter. But on a daily basis, I spend around 30min-1.5hour.
I have a lot in school so I would like to write more if I have the time.
Does your family support your work?
a~ Yes! I don't think they understand the concept, though. They're always like, "how do you make money out of it?" And I always answer, "I don't care." It's never been a goal to make money, and I honestly don't even see a way of making it since it's fanfics. I've become rich in friends and safe places from writing this. Other than that, they're supportive, although they think it's pure smut:)
If you could tell your younger self anything, what would it be?
a~ oh god. Don't stop writing. I know like sucks, and you only see a date for you to escape this world, but you will find the power to leave the people who hurt you the most! It might feel like you never get a happy moment in life without being anxious about something terrible happening. But it'll get better, and you'll one day understand that other people can't mess up your life if they aren't a part of it! You decide what way you want to go, and as long as you're happy with it, no one else will ever have a say in it<3 "give me back my girlhood. It was mine first." Even though it feels like other people took your life away from you. Don't let them! Talk to someone, and go to therapy! Turning 18 was hard for me because I felt like I had my girlhood taken away from me when I was 12. Try to enjoy it, and don't let the trauma overwhelm you!!!
