What is your username?

A. HellBound_

When did you join Wattpad? And for how long have you been writing (in general)?

A. I joined Wattpad at May 31, 2013. I've been writing for six years already, since I started writing stories when I was eight and I practically shoved them in my mom's face to read. Like: The Magical Princess, The Mysterious Island . . .

What can you tell us about the current story you’re working on? Tell us a little about the plot and the characters in it?

A. I'm working with my story "Enraptured," that I started about six months ago. The story is about a girl named—Lasiandra Winter. Word provided that name for me since the original had a red line under it. This story is about a girl facing supernatural things. Let's start fresh first. What I can say about her is that she's lost and the story is about finding herself—more like discovering, it's like the story of her growing up and going strong. As for the other characters—the masked man, he starts off as mysterious an unknown but he leaves a great impression on Lasiandra.

My plot is simple,a bit complex if you think of it but I'm leaving a lot of conflicts around the tale that will solved one by one as the story progrosses. Most say that the happenings in the first chapter was too fast but that's the way I wanted it to go. This story is fantasy which will probably involve, demons, angels.

Why do you think the readers should read your story (mention the factors which will be appealing to the readers)?

A. I think they should read my story because they can learn something from it—I don't want it to just be another story around the corner. I want it to leave a mark at the person who reads it—in a good way. My story shows things about bravery, life, sacrifices and the feelings you experience. And the story isn't just about life, it also has romance, action and a variety of characters that may be confusing at first but will prove something to the readers as the story goes on.

Which is your favorite character, in the current story you are working on?

A. My favorite of course is the main protagonist—Lasiandra Winter, because I also experience a lot of things in life and I write them off at Lasiandra, she basically reflects what I feel. She's my favorite because I can always picture exactly what she feels or does, I never get writer's block from her, unlike my other characters. And she displays good AND bad qualities and she has the most conflicts in the story in which she handles alone and with companionship.

How many stories have you posted on Wattpad (excluding short stories)?

A. I posted eight stories. I had another account before but I decided to concentrate on this one instead. I have three stories posted but I deleted the othef one due to me editing it.

Can you tell us about your other stories, any two other stories that you are working on?

A. The two other stories that I have are: Trouble and Arisen.

In Trouble—I venture in fantasy again. The story is about a girl named Addilyn. Her family has enough problems in her life—financial problems, her brother sick, and with Addilyn's not so good grades. Addilyn's flunking English and so the teacher made her do a report based on a book. And that's where her dreams began, she could hear someone calling her, calling for her to find them. And that's where she found the book of Trouble. Trouble is a person—someone like Death. He's the cause of very deadly disasters on Earth. Mass murders—the lot of that. A millenia ago, he was captured by someone like him, the woman sacrificed her own immortality and power just to conceal him from the world. Well, that is when Addilyn finds him and frees him.

And Arisen—the story is all about sacrifice and about angels and demons and something like Enraptured. There are two siblings—Annecka and Scarlet Michelle, who have a bond between themselves.

Do you offer critiques to other users? If you have offered a critique, mention that story?

A. No, I don't because I'm not so much an expert on things but I when I ask for a critique and they want one back, I'll try my best to give a honest insight on their story and a small view on their grammar.

Do you write for yourself or for the readers?

A. I do both. I write because I love writing and it acts like a gate for me. Its like my escape and Wattpad is my paradise. But without the support of the readers, I think I wouldn't go so far. It's quite nice to see someone who actually like what comes from your mind and they comment and vote. It inspires me more, so I try my best at my works for myself but also for them.

Describe yourself in ten words.

A. Weird. Quirky. Creepy. Imaginative. Lost. Creative. Insecure. Awkward. Shy. Stupid.
