Wattpad Interviews With Writers.

Interveiw #11 with inspire2write_

How long have you been on wattpad?

ive been on wattpad for as long as i can remember. i remember my sister would always be on her phone and think this girl is obsessed. then one day i was like why not try it? so i downloaded it on my phone (i didnt know the website existed at the time.) and decided on a story and it was AMAZING. i then started to look for more and i checked the different catagories until i created an obsession with werewolves and my phone was always in my hands. but i have been on wattpad for a very very very long time.

Why did you join wattpad?

i joined wattpad because i love reading and writing. its like a second nature. i would always come up with this plots and just didnt see the point in writing them on paper then throwing the paper in the bin. plus everytime i showed them to my friends they would never give me honest feedback. it was always "yes ur idea is good" because they didnt want to hurt my feelings. i needed honest feedback. also i read this awesome book called "nothing left to loose" an di had sooo muany questions i needed to ask the auther and i guess the only way to do that is if i made an account and asked her myself.

What is your favorate parrt of writing?

my favourite part of writing is probably making up the characters. i think its fun because theres nothing to hide. u dont need to worry about what others will think off you and i personally cant help but put some of myself into each character. what i do often is get someone i dont like from my life and make them the head bitch or the girl that dies. its mean but fun and i always make these fantasies abnout their lives and payback and stuff

What is the hardest part of the writing process?

i used to find starting the story the most difficult part but then i would write so much that it became a second nature. right now though i have difficulty finishing my stories. i would start it and write like 6 chapters but then get another plot and title and start another story forgetting about my previous story on the way. but i mean when i started uploading stories on wattpad i found it very easy as so many people vote and comment and motivate me to finish off writing and i feel like im writing for a purpose and not just wasting my time.

When did you start writing?

i started writing along time ago. my dad brought me a note book and i would write. i even went as far as drawing the clothes my characters wore, but it was only a month ago that i went out of my comfort zone and decided to post stories on wattpad with the help of my sister.

What inspired you to start writing?

well alot of things inspired me. i think the most powerful thing are the Aurthurs that write. i would read awesome books and wish i could write like this. i wanted to be like them and write stories that people would read and enjoy. its like for example a book i read, it was so accurate about my life that it was precious and so close to my heart. i wanted to write so that one day my book would be as of importance to someone else. i wanted to change things. words are powerful and could do alot more change than action.

Who are you favorate writers? Do they influence your writing?

my favourite Authors are sophie mckenzie and anne cassidy. anne cassidy has visited my school a few times and everytime i was mesmerized by the way she speaks about her books. she was so proud and i was proud too. when i read her books she seemed so different but who she really is. i was shocked as i imagined her as a completely different person!!!! i think that she has changed the wya i write in a way because i used to always think that my ideas weren't good enough.i would skim through ideas and never think it was necessary to go so deep. but she taught me to always carry a note book and no matter who small the detail to jot it down

What genres do you wright in?

well i usually only write 2 genres: romance and werewolf. i LOVE werewolfs and have a massive obsession with it. i even went far enought o create a pack with other werewolf lovers on wattpad. it was great fun. i love the way writers make werewolves sooo real and u actually feel ur part of it. especially as humans are not alowed to know of the existence of werewolfs and so u feel ur special because u know. i also like writing romance because im a romantic person and love match making. its cute.

Which of your stories are you most proud of?

well i haven't actually finished any stories but ive started a book called "without him who am i?" ive published prologue and chapter 1 on wattpad (go check it out) and im very proud of the plot. to be honest it was actually an english assignment were we had to write a short story but of a twisted fair story and i decided to continue it in to guess what? werewolf and romance :).

Any tips for new writers?

id say be confident when u write and dont be afraid to include all ur crazy and dangerous ideas. there will always be someone that loves ur work so just because you dont have alot of reads, votes or comments, doesnt mean ur not good.

How do you get through the editing process?

well i would ask people i trust and taht i knew were honest to read my work. i also included my self in threads and discussions and made sure people edited my grammer, writing techniques and stuff like that. i experimented with alot of things before i chose my way of writing.

Any closing comments?

i think that making wattpad and writing my own stories on here as been so fun and i will keep on writing till im like 100 years old. its something i enjoy doing it and i dont feel like im having to impress someone or make something right for my teacher!!!!
