Klara is a new writer who has tried historical romance and mystery genre, still exploring new fields of writing. She recently obtained a master's degree in law in the UK yet still often finds herself struggling with reading and writing in English. She enjoys reading, learning foreign languages, and translation, and has a passion for animals and children. Her dream is to become a popular author of children's literature. She is a hopeless person who, once hooked on a story, cannot stop reading and ends up forgetting to eat or drink, needing to prop her eyelids open with two matchsticks like Tom in Tom and Jerry to stay awake as long as possible, resulting in very high myopia.
At what age did you realize that you have a special place for writing? Are you currently or do you ever dream of one day being in the writing industry?
>>Unlike most writers here, I only started writing a decent story for the first time last year. Before that, I hadn't really created anything, except for academic writing in school. However, I've had the habit of making up stories in my mind since I was a child. Every night before bed, I would let my imagination run wild, from world-building and plot to characters and dialogue. You could say I've just been too lazy to actually put them down on paper. If writing could bring me financial gain, I would certainly be happy, but that's not my main goal. For now, writing is purely for my own enjoyment. I'm more interested in getting feedback and comments from readers.
Did any story, on or off Wattpad, inspire you ever and help you carve your interest towards writing books?
>>I think I must trace back to the enchanting children's literature that profoundly influenced me in my childhood, especially stories featuring adorable, unforgettable young girls who possess unique ideas and charm. Stories like Little Women, Anne of Green Gables,andHeidi. In the stories I write, child characters also play a significant role. I greatly enjoy writing from a child's perspective. In children, we see boundless possibilities; their little minds hold the purest poetry that rhetoricians cannot capture, and they often produce wisdom and truths that philosophers can never attain because they are not yet tainted by worldly influences.
In Love at Dawn, I attempt to explore how experimental education can guide a gifted girl through a unique developmental path in a special era through little Edith's part. In little Fiona's section, I illustrate how children are shaped by the religious and class concepts of their upbringing. Through little Charlene, an idealized character who is self-educated and untainted by the harmful notions of the adults around her, I reflect on how precocious children can develop a clear-eyed view of society and a prescient understanding of the future.
