1. What inspired you to write a story?

-Honestly, what inspired me was my grade six teacher. Our assignment was to write a short story, and after handing them back to us with marks attached, she held me back after class and told me about a writing contest she thought I'd enjoy participating in. That was the first time I'd ever written something just for the fun of it, and I liked it, so kept going with it.

2. Do you get any hate on your stories?

If you do, how do you handle it? -I've never gotten any hate on my stories. If I did, while I don't doubt I'd be kinda sad and definitely a little angry, I'd just ignore it. I want to be an author, and if I listen to every single negative thing someone says about my writing, and only focus on those, instead of the good things, I would never succeed.

3. How did you come up with the title and the plot?

-I've temporarily removed my story for a few plot changes, but I came up with the title Night's Worth of Words from personal experience. I've had some of my deepest conversations at two or three in the morning, about things we're for some reason to embarrassed to talk about during the day. For the plot, I thought it would be interesting to tell the story of two people, damaged people, who can only meet and talk at night, after their life during the day has completely drained them and they talk with complete honesty. And bond over books :D

4. What books would you tell your readers to read?

-ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING AT ALL BY CASSANDRA CLARE. SHE IS A WRITING GENIUS.

5. If you could work with any author on Wattpad who would it be ?

-I have so many favourites, but probably CLLemay. She's awesome.

6. Who is your favourite character in your story and why?

-My favourite is probably Alec Lewis, because he's strong and funny, and he's pretty much exactly what I'd want in a friend.

7. Can you relate to any of your characters?

-Grace, because she finds solace in books. I hide in books when I'm stressed, and I don't like sharing my feelings or thoughts at all, and neither does she.

8. Are their any wattpad authors that have grasped your interest?

-So many, I can't even begin to count or name just one.

9. What do you think your cover says about your book? -

My cover is a girl reading a book, in black and white, and I think that pretty much describes one of the ain characters, Grace.

10. Any advice for other writers who are writing a story? -

Keep going. Even if you get hate, or you're discouraged, or anything. Also, you shouldn't have to push yourself. You have to love what you're writing.

11. Anything specific you wanna say to your readers? -

THANK YOU SO MUCH! You guys encouraged me even when I wanted to quit, and it's because of you guys I want to continue. Also, CRITICIZE ME. It really helps, and I'll take t.

12. What do you want to say to writers with their books on hold?

-It may be hard, but there are always people that love your writing, and want to see you continue it. The feeling finishing a story is the best feeling, so think of that and keep pushing.
