I would like to introduce you to Katherine, otherwise known on Wattpad me2you804. She joined Wattpad in 2009 and lives in Kent, UK, is 26 years old, and is a fellow Wattpad Ambassador working as part of the engagement team. I was fortunate to meet Katherine at London Wattcon in December 2016 and we bonded over cake, chat and writing.
Reply: I was so lucky to sit next to you because I knew hardly anyone at the event - or at least I hadn't met anyone in person. You were so welcoming so thank you for that.
My pleasure - I hadn't met anyone in person before WattCon2016 and it was great to meet people I had chatted to previously online and meet new ones like yourself. :-)
Reply: I agree! I've been to Wattcons before but I get to meet different people each time. It was nice to put some faces to the names at long last. It's great fun - especially when you invite yourself to lunch with some of the other attendees. I definitely recommend Wattcons to anyone who gets the chance to go.
Absolutely.
Thank you for kindly agreeing to undertake this interview. Let's get ourselves comfortable as we settle down in our virtual Beach Café in our comfy chairs. Now I'll order and I'll treat.
So what are we drinking? Coffee? Tea? Or a glass of wine?? Oh and are we having cake? If so, which cake is your favourite? Is there a memory attached to it that you would like to share?
Reply: A good strong cup of tea for me. You can never go wrong with a good brew... and I'm getting a little bit too addicted to coffee at the moment. And I'll have chocolate fudge cake or carrot cake. Or both.Yeah both.
Yum yum fabbo choice. That's too naughty BOTH!
Reply: What can I say?! I have a sweet tooth. I really need to learn to cut back on the sweet stuff really but where would the fun in that be.
Well when you get old like me, a moment on the lips, is almost an inch on the hips! Blame my old Boss for that saying! It's stayed with me! So enjoy it whilst you can. I'm so jealous. I eat tons less than I use to but it seems to like to stay attached to me! But you gotta live. Life is too sad without a weekly treat of cake!
Here's a great recipe I found for Chocolate Fudge Cake, I often order this if I go out for dinner to share with some ice cream.
Reply: Ooh that looks amazing. Let's go with that.
So Katherine, one thing I would love to know, due to your user name, are you addicted to "me to you" teddy bears and if so why; or is there another reason for your user name choice?
Reply: Ah, so you spotted that. Yes, I came up with the username when I was 12 years old and I was very addicted to those adorable bears. I first created the username for a site called Neopets. Some of you might be old enough to know the site or have heard of it. It was my life when I was 12/13 years old. We didn't have wifi back then, just annoying dial up connection that cut out every time the phone rang, but I suffered through it to play games on there. 804 was my form class at school at the time. The username has stuck with me ever since.
Ah Katherine, you are obviously very sentimental.
