- My name is diamond and I love me some Tyga.
2. Who is your favorite Author(S) ?How does their writing reflect on your own work?
- My favorite author is Omar Tyree. He is able to tell a story easily from a different character prospective to deepen the storyline and that’s what I am working on doing.
3. How long does a idea bounce around your head before you actually write/type it down?
- It bounces around overnight atleast. I’m a person of impulse, once the idea is fully thought out I have to note it down otherwise I won’t be able to focus on anything else. In my mind, I’ll be elaborating on that idea.
4. Do you have any specific procedures or rituals you do before/during a good typing/writing session?
- I have to have my earbuds in and my music playing. It has to be music that makes me think, so my ultimate writing playlist consist of Jhene Aiko, J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar, and Drake.
5. Name someone you can always confide in for a good proof read and honest feedback?
- @MillieVanilli she’s real, and will tell me straight up what she likes and what she doesn’t in a detailed comment. She points out things most people don’t notice.
6. Which out of all the characters you ever written about is your favorite and why?
- My personal favorite character is Cameron from my book Holdin’ On. He’s modeled after someone I know and it’s interesting to watch him and get inside his head. Just to finally realize his logic and add that to a character is a new feel for me.
7.What is your Favorite thing about being an Author?
- My favorite thing has to be the feedback. No matter if you had a bad day at work or school, to come on here and see your hardwork being appreciated is great.
8.Do you have a word for your readers/fans and fellow Authors?

- My favorite book is “The Boy With The Blue Lamborghini” by@DivineCollision

1 .What or who are you most interested in, in your story? Love Interest? Goals?
- I am most interested in trying to do the best for me, myself and I. As for a love interest, I haven’t really decided, one the on hand I have someone who I love that I’ve known all my life. And on the other I have someone who is hard to read, when I want him, he doesn’t seem to want me yet I can’t escape him. You’ll just have to read and see.
2. What are some Pet peeves you have? Things you Don’t like?
- My biggest pet peeve is to not be able to explain my reasoning. We all know that one person who accuses you but, when you try to explain all of a sudden they don’t what to hear anything you have to say. I can’t deal with that.
3. How would your peers describe you ? Who can you relate to the most?
- Lol, that depends on who you ask. To some, I might be seen as stuck-up and hard to understand. But to others, they would tell you that I’m loyal as hell. i relate to Keyana the most for the fact that she is kind of like me. We both understand the games people play and won’t ever be scared to call you out on it.
4 .Who is your enemy?
- I don’t really have one. I couldn’t care less about people to be honest, all I know is that you don’t want to be on my bad side.
5.Are you the Good or Bad Guy?
- I’m defiantly the good guy in my story.
6.What are One of the hardest/Craziest things you ever had to do in your story?
- Honestly, the hardest thing I ever had to do was admit my feeling to my best friend. Growing up in a house where emotions were seen as a weakness, it was th worst to try to open up and be put in a vulnerable state.
7. Most Embarrassing Moments? Moments of Clarity?
- I think my most embarrassing moment was, coming from Cameron’s bedroom after a fight to see all his friends sitting on the couch staring at me. I usually don’t lose my cool in front of someone. I was terrified.
