What inspired you to write your book
I was thinking about how silly I was to be scared of monsters when I was little , but then I started to think that maybe, just maybe, when we are children we see and feel things that the adults can't. So I guess the thing that inspired me was that monster I was scared of as a kid.
Have you ever recived hate? If so how do you deal with it?
Not really anything negative, just friendly critiques from my friends and family that helped me be a better writer.
How did you come up with the plot and title
I thought that for the story, children must have some sort of reason as to why they can see and feel things that adults can't. But, I wanted to create a story with grown people that have somehow kept those childhood powers. That's when I came up with an angel-like figure called a Silhouette. You're born with it, and leaves you after one year on Earth. The group of people that the story follows were loved so much by their Silhouette that they were blessed with a advanced trait or state of mind. The title was easy, though, because the story follows a naive, blessed guy, Luca, trying to figure out a woman's, Jane's, life and how she ended up with the group of blessed people.
What books would you tell your readers to read
It's their choice, really, but the ones who like the paranormal / mystery/ horror I write would probably like Stephen King novels or Edgar Allan Poe, but everyone's taste in books is different.
Are there any writers who have grasped you intress
Wattpad, yes, ShaunAllan's story 'Sin' is very interesting, and I have to admit, I fell head-over-heels for the story 'No Capes' by joecool123, and I love MrRedHat's story 'Thirst'. Non-wattpad, John Green contemporary writer Haruki Murakami, and Ania Ahlborn.
Any advice for writers who are also writing a story
My advice is don't take my advice. Everyone writes differently.
Anything specific you would like to say to your reads/ the magazine readers.
Thanks to mt readers for supporting my six-year-going-on-seven goal to become a writer!
Have you ever had anyone copy to idea for a book
Once, I had one of my fans ask me if they could make a fanfiction off one of my stories, but I said no. It would hurt me too much to see my beloved character in someone else's hands!
What a wonderful interveiw thank you
Oh and BTW now I have new/ better questions :)
