How did you discover this site?

- Well, I was searching for ebook applications on my phone and the first one that popped up was Wattpad. I downloaded it and got addicted instantly! It was first just for reading, but then I thought about giving writing a shot.

When did you begin writing?

- I have always enjoyed writing. Since I learned how to write, I've been writing childish stories. I always write frequently, whether to write about my day and my feelings, or a short silly story, or ideas, etc... But a few months ago, I decided to start something serious to post online and for people to actually read and give me feedback on.

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

- Most rewarding is using my imagination which is very fun. I get very creative and wild with ideas. The least rewarding thing would probably be that writing takes time and being a busy person, I don't have time to lose.

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

- Haha nice question! From my story "Rejected For My Secrets", there is this hot main male character, Alex. I'd want someone sexy and strong to be stuck with, so I chose him!

How do they influence your writing?

- There are 4! First of all, JK Rowling, she gives me creative ideas. Second, there is EL James, she just inspires me in the Romance genre. Third, there is Agatha Christie, her mystery stories give me ideas for mine. I definitely don't copy any ideas! I just use them to inspire me. Fourth, a writer from Wattpad, Jordan Lynde, she gives me hope and I look up to her in the hopes that one day I would be as successful and Wattpad would help me publish a book!

Any unique tips youd like to share on how to craft your first draft?

- My writing process is pretty weird. First, I get the ideas while I'm taking a shower. I don't know why, but they pop up to me then. Next, I usually write while I'm in class. Let's admit it, school is boring, and usually my writing skills are at their best there. When I go home, I copy what I wrote at school on my computer, and then reread it once or twice to check for errors, and then I upload. And if there are any comments to help me fix the chapters, I benefit from them.

How do you promote your work?

- I don't tell any acquaintances, except just one friend because she also has an account on wattpad. I used to promote my stories on the SYS club, but it disappeared so.. I'm not sure what to do now.

Which one of your stories has done the best, and why?

- My first ever story, which I mentioned previously, "Rejected For My Secrets". I think the reasons behind its success are that I've put the most effort in it, I've promoted it more than the others, it has many chapters, and its idea is better. But it also doesn't have much competition because I only have two other stories (one which I haven't even started with properly yet)

Why should readers check out your work?

- Because I really appreciate all readers, and I usually try my best to please them. I don't want to sound stuck up and say that my work deserves it, but I put a lot of work in it and maybe it's worth a shot?

Any closing comments?

Umm, Thank you for reading this! And I hope you check out my work!! :)</pre>
