4. What are the names of all the books you write or have posted on Wattpad?

Her Smile Shows It

A Life I Almost Knew

5. Which of these books are/was your favorite story to write and why?

A Life I Almost Knew because well, I put so much planning into it and I personally think the storyline is really imaginative :L vain much? Anyway, I just think it's the most enjoyable to write :)

6. Do any of the scenes in your books come from real life experiences, and if so do you want to elaborate which scenes and in what books?

Hmmm... Well not exactly. My stories are based around Harry Potter, so unfortunately those sort of scenes don't exist -.- I mean, there has been a few scenes based around my emotions at the time, but not my real life experiences. I have not apparated out of a room and into Diagon Alley :L

7. When you're writing, do you have a schedule or maybe you have something that you do when you're writing such as listening to music?

Well, I almost always write when it gets dark (like 8pm) or just whenever I have the right emotions for the chapter. I also LOVE listening to music when I'm writing, actually, I cannot write without it :) I would list a few but there are too many... (:

8. What inspired you to want to start writing and posting your stories for hundreds, perhaps thousands of people to read?

Well It was in the summer holidays and I started to want to read again so I went on wattpad and the first thing I saw was charliea. I read like ALL of her Fred Weasley love story and thought it was amazingggg so I decided to write one myself :D

9. Who is your number one inspiration when it comes to writing?

Well, I don't exactly have a famous writer that inspires me, well except J K Rowling, because to be honest, I actually hate reading. Don't get me wrong, I love to read SOME books like fan fictions and romance stories, I just find it really hard to finish it and then it gets tedious after the 60th page... :) so yeah my inspiration would be charliea

10. When did you first start writing?

Well, I first started writing little stories, like fairy takes and Disney princess stories, when I was 8, but back then I didn't know what an adjective or verb was, so you could tell it was going to be rubbish :')

The first time I ever wrote anything actually readable was on the 29th of august 2011, so yeah a month ago today :D

11. Why did you start posting stories on Wattpad?

29th august... I like to post my work out as soon as possible so I can get feedback :)

12. What do you love most about writing?

I love it just for the fact that you can write absolutely anything your brain comes up with, fiction or non fiction, so with a wild imagination like mine you can tell I love writing as soon as I find the time haha.

13. If you could change tone thing in any of your books, what would it be?

Well, I would probably change the start 2 chapters of ALIAK like completely, because I've grown more as a writer as the chapters go on, so the first two are rubbish :')

14. When you start writing a new book, does it already have a plot or are you as clueless as to what will happen as your fans are?

Noooooo, before I start thinking of a new story, I always think of the plot line, how it starts, how it ends, characters description and a brief layout of what I'm going to write about in each chapter :) I know, I sound like a right nerd but it helps A LOT!

15. When starting a new story, what comes into your mind first, the Title, the basic idea of the book, or the characters?

Basic idea, like first I think of what genre it's going to be in, then I think of what it's going to be about :) I normally leave the title till the end, I can hever think of one at the start :L

16. If you could tell your fans one thing, besides Thank You, what would it be?

Hmmm... God I dont know... Probably something sweet like 'you are do friggin' awesome for reading my stories, so here's a virtual hug' :)

17. What would you like to tell all of the Hope-To-Be Authors that are currently on Wattpad?

Maybe just to let your mind loose and come up with the most unique story you can think of. Write in the best way that you can and always take in criticism, because you will learn a lot from it (: Never stop writing, because if you do, you will probably end up stopping (: Oh and grammar and punctuations and all that… that sounds so corny when I read it back haha!

18. Do you use any other sites to post your stories?

Err well I would use tumblr but I hate it... I mean my friend posts the links from time to time cause she has loadssssss of followers :) or rebloggers... I don't know what you call them :L I used to post it on my twitter but then it jammed up my account so I disabled it :)

19. Would you like to share you Facebook, Tumblr or Twitter with fans and readers?

Well.. Okay :')
