Keyboard To Keyboard (Wattpad Interviews)

Interview: AbysmallyAbstracted

*** Welcome to our next interviewee, AbysmallyAbstracted. I love her name (both screen and real. Very creative! Anyway enough chit chat lets get interviewing!************

1. Say hi to your readers

Heya!!! How are you all doin'?

2. What should we call you?

Ryu is fine (pronounced "RUE")

3. How long have you been on Wattpad?

Um.... about one or so months.

4. Did you stumble across it or were you directed onto it by a friend/college/family?

I stumbled across it one day when I was reading a story. :)

5. What are you general thoughts on Wattpad?

I like it better than a lot of the websites I've been on that are similar.

6. How many Books have you written on Wattpad?

A lot. So far... I think I have about 25 projects. And uh... maybe eight (?) are books, both complete and incomplete.

7. Give us a blurb/summary of your story on Wattpad AND the link.

Hm... I have a few I could put one here. But I guess if you want a quick read, I have a pretty good "romance-y" type story.

Rules for Surviving the Sweenys:

Sixteen year old, Bella Harken, has knowingly taken one of the hardest jobs she's ever had, or ever WILL have. She is the nanny for the dreaded Sweeny siblings. There are four of them. Owen (17), Eli (15), Danny (10), and Lucy (3). Despite the protests of her over-protective siblings (she's the ninth member of the dozen Harken "siblings"), she decides to live up to the challenge. She's never backed away from a challenge before, so why start now? Even if it means "babysitting" a boy that she's known since she was six.

If you want a more action-y/adventure story, you can never go wrong with Criminal for Good, which is one of my more popular stories:

Mira never knew that leaving behind her life of crime, gangs and abuse in New York would ever result in what she found waiting for her in the place that was supposed to be her safe haven. Upon arriving, she discovers that she has a twin brother, Niko, who nobody had ever decided would be a good idea to tell her about. Along with the discovery of her brother, she finds a new family, a few angry Italian mobsters, a father who despises her, a couple of bloodthirsty psychopaths, a kid who will do anything to protect her, and a mess of lies, gangs, money, murder, a secret to which only Mira holds the key, and much more.

8. Are You more of a Reader, Writer, Critic or Artistic Designer?

I fancy myself both a reader and writer. I also tend to give pretty good critiques. I pride myself in giving honest feedback that always follows my "Kind, Specific, Helpful" guidelines. :)

9. What is your favourite book that you have read on Wattpad?

Hm... that's a tough one. I gotta say, I enjoyed the Book of Conspiracies, by Shakespeare169. And I also really liked, Her Family, by loulou10. There are a few others, but it's really late and I can't think of them right this moment.
