1:How did you discover Wattpad?

I stumbled upon wattpad by accident, but it has definitely been one of the best things thats ever happened to me.

2: What do you do when you aren't on Wattpad?

Most of my time is busy with school and work, I see my friends whenever I have some free time, and I spend hours reading.

3: What inspires you to keep writing?

I love the characters I create and always want to get to the end of the story to give them the ending they deserve.

  4: Have you ever just wanted to give up on a book?

Yes, and I have before, there are some stories where you just don't know where you're going and have no idea of the plot and I think that's the time to just stop, pull back for a bit and figure everything out. I would only ever stop a book in the early stages though, once you're far enough though it doesn't seem fair to quit and let all your readers down.

5: Is there any advice that you can tell our reader's about continuing a book?

Keep pushing though even when the going gets tough. Try to find an incident in your life that you can tie into the story just to give you a starting place when you're stuck. Read over your work and see if you can really picture the story in your mind.

6: What genre of books do you like to read/write?

I like writing romance and I haven't really tried anything outside of that yet. I love reading fantasy books most of all and enjoy a bunch of romance novels as well. My favorites are books set in medieval times.

7: How/Where did you get the idea for The Last Dance?

A lot of the plot was just an idea I had for a really long time. I always loved the medieval era and if I could live my life in that time it would be as a Lady Knight. I few of the plot ideas just came to me as I was writing and some I had to think about for days trying to see that fit with the time period.

8: Do you have any pets?

Yes, I have a cat named Feather. He's a handful but I love him =)

9: What is your favorite Wattpad story?

I have quite a few actually, The Theif's Revenge was the first story I ever read on Wattpad and is definitely one of my favorites, I also love I Sold Myself to the Devil for Vinyls... Pitiful I know, as well as Secrets of the Night and a few otheres.

10: What is your favorite published book?

Again I can't pick just one. Some of my favoites are Ella Enchanted, the Truth about Forever, This Lullaby, and all the books by Tamora Pierce.

11: Have you entered anything in the Watty Awards?

Yes. I entered my latest book, Alone on Cloud 9 into the Watty awards. Not sure that I'll actually be able to finish it by the deadline but I'm hopeful. It might end up being more of a short story than I thought at first...

12: What makes you want to write? What is your inspiration?

I don't usually start writing a story unless I'm really commited to it and usually I fall so in love with writing it that I have to keep going. I'm inspired by a lot of things, books and movies and even real life. The Last Dance was inspired by a combination of my favorite books as well as my own fairytale fantasy. Alone on Cloud 9 is largely inspired by events that happened when I was in High School.

13: Who are your favorite characters frome your books?

Main characters aside I think my favorite character in The Last Dance is David and in Alone on Cloud 9 is Evan.

14: If I were to ask your friends what you were like in one word what would they say?

Happy.

15: Is there anything else you would like to say to your fans and our readers?

Thanks to all of you who've been with me since the very start and all the new fans and readers I gathered on the way, it means a lot.
