How did you discover this site?

A: I joined Wattpad a little over a year ago. My friend mentioned the site to me, and, after a lot of reading fellow Wattpader's work, I decided to upload a story.

Q: When did you begin writing?

A: When I was a little girl, I used to write these funny stories based on online games I would play, and then I soon began to develop my plots so they were more than a few one-sided characters.

Q: What is the most rewarding part of writing? The least rewarding?

A: The most rewarding part is begin able to explore different realities, and, as corny as it sounds, writing really is an outlet from the real world. To me, there isn't really any part of writing that isn't rewarding. I just hope, one day, that I can be published.

Q: If you where stuck in a closet with one of your characters, who would it be and why?

A: Hmmmm, that's a toughie... I would probably be stuck with Sadie. She's a more fun character from my novel, though smart, so she would be good company, yet probably find a way to help us out of the closet.

Q: Who are your favourite authors? How do they influence your writing?

A: One of my favourite authors is Ty Roth. He wrote a book called "So Shelly," and I fell absolutely in love. Roth has really influenced my ability to go into depth with character's backgrounds; he explained all these stories about his main character, Shelly, and each and every one of them were captivating.

Q: What is the writing process like? Any unique tips you'd like to share on how to craft your first draft?

A: Well, I don't really make drafts. At least, not in the sense that I write down my ideas in point form, then make sentences, etc. I do write a chapter and then, after that, I edit, and edit, and edit.

Q: How do you promote your work?

A: I used to promote on the SYS Club, but now I go to the Critiquing Club, where I share feedback with other writers, in return for comments.

A: I only have one story, "For The Clairvoyant Alone," but I hope to upload more stories soon.

Why should readers check out your work?

I suppose I just hope they give my work a chance, and then, whether they like my story or not, I always enjoying hearing feedback. I can say, with absolute certainty, that every single one of my fans has helped me improve my work.</pre>
