1. Tell us your name and
a random fact about
yourself(ex: Favorite Genre/Sub Genre, Personal
Interest).
My name is Marisa and romance is my favorite genre
2. Who is your favorite
Author(S) ?How does their
writing reflect on your own
work?
I don't necessarily have a favorite author, I have favorite books. But if I had to choose I'd say sister souljah because I love all of her books. I respect Zane as a writer also because if you can look past the sex, her plots and worrying style is great. Their writing doesn't really influence my own, nor does it show in my work......at least I don't think it does...
3. How long does a idea
bounce around your head
before you actually write/type it down?
Oh gosh it depends. I'm a HUGE procrastinator. As a writer I picture it all in my head, like a movie. I like to make sure I have all the plots and big events mapped out before I actually start writing so it could take a week or months
4. Do you have any specific procedures or
rituals you do before/during
a good typing/writing
session?
Nope I just play music if I'm typing. If I'm writing on paper I have to be alone. Idk, I'm weird like that; I need complete silence and privacy. Before I write I already know what I want to write. If I get stuck I stop writing, close my eyes and picture it all in my head
5. Name someone you
can always confide in for a
good proof read and honest
feedback?
No one proof reads my work. As far as feedback Youngsimba and chatterboxx always give constructive feedback
6. Which out of all the
characters you ever written
about is your favorite and
why?
Karisha. Idk maybe I'm biased because the story she's in is my favorite of all I've written. She kind of reminds me of myself as far as her attitude goes
7.What is your Favorite
thing about being an
Author?
Uhhhhh....lol idk. I appreciate the feedback and when people message me saying they love my works, but I can't really explain my favorite part of being an author. As cliche as it sounds writing gives me an unexplainable feeling. I like coming up with a plot and turning it into something greater, I like being able to create a different world with different people
8.Do you have a word for
your readers/fans and
fellow Authors?
For my fans all I can say is be patient with me. For my fellow writers I'll say don't rush any story you're working on. I've read a lot of stories that have great potential but since they were rushed they didn't get to reach it
9.Do you have a Favorite
Wattpad book on your
Currently reading list? Who
is it by?
Faking it by mishahicks. It's the first thing on my mind because I just read the new chapter
The Character:
Name: Karisha Estlarue
Age: 14
Physical Description: I'm still in the process of puberty, but I'm filling out my curves nicely. I have a caramel complexion, hazel eyes, and what's slowly becoming an hour glass shape. I look more like my mom each day
1 .What or who are you
most interested in, in your
story?
I'm most interested in doing everything I can to become the strwets. I don't want anyone to feel like they can take advantage of me or my family
Love Interest? Chris, though I'd never let myself pursue him. I don't have time for love or relationships.
Goals? Getting revenge on my father
2. What are some Pet peeves
you have? Things you Don’t
like?
I don't like people that take advantage of others
3. How would your peers
describe you ?
They'd probably say they don't know much about me. The guys would probably say I'm thick. The girls will say I'm a ticking time bomb. I don't really talk to people besides Chris and Trey
Who can you
relate to the most? My mom as far as my looks and attitude goes, and in a sense Jordan because the same path I'm going down he's already traveled
4 .Who is your
enemy? Marcus
5.Are you the Good or
Bad Guy?
I wouldn't say I'm bad but some of my actions prove I'm not entirely good. A lot of the things I've done I now realize I didn't have to do and I let vengeance control my actions
6.What are One of the
hardest/Craziest things you
ever had to do in your
story? Kill someone
7. Most Embarrassing
Moments?
Getting my period at school while wearing white shorts and having Trey find me in the bathroom. He had to go to the clinic and get me a pad.
