What is your name and where are you from?

How did you discover Wattpad?

Robert: Thanks to the all-powerful, mighty Google ;)

What are your thoughts on the success of your books?

Robert: "Oh my God, did that really happen?" I think that every time I see how many readers and fans I have ;-)

What was your inspiration for your watty award winning book and winner of multiple other awards "Storm and Silence"?

Robert: There are various inspirations, ranging from historical personalities, over book characters from Dickens and Austen, to more modern influences. It's really the mix that makes it interesting.

Any hobbies?

What would you like to say to your readers?

Robert: Thank you for being such spiffing, supportive fans! :)

Do you travel often?

Have you seen your fans in real life?

Robert: Not yet, unfortunately.

Where is your favorite place to write?

Robert: In my writing dungeon (aka the cellar, where it always stays nice and cool, and my brain won't overheat).

Thank you for your time. (: We really appreciate it!
