What is your username?

A. MidnightStorm14

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

A. I joined in February of this 2014, but I have been a reader way longer. I wrote a lot for school of course, but I have only done outside writing for a couple years.

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 also have two stories (Unusual Kind and The Chaos) that are posted. I have been working on The Chaos more than the Unusual Kind. The Chaos is a romantic comedy, and it is focused on an engaged couple, Derek and Mary. Both of them are from very different lifestyles. Mary is from more rural upbringings while Derek is use to the big city life. Things go awry when Derek and Mary are trapped with their two very different families for the holidays in a small town. The two families clash, and they create distance between Derek and Mary. Mary and Derek make a very humorous but heart-warming couple. Their are tons of other characters in this story you can fall in love with or grow to hate. There is an overprotective father, an embarrassing mother, jokester brothers, an evil mother-in-law, and so on.

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

A. Well this story will contain lots of humor, so if you love to laugh you should be good. The main location of this story is in a rural area on a farm, so if you are curious about the farm life it may be an interesting read for you. There are also several romantic bits for the hopeless romantics out there. A little bit of everything: adventure, romance, and comedy.

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

A. Well in the Unusual Kind, I'm really excited to continue working on Cassie's character. I really am enjoying working on her because she is so different from me. It also is a bit of a challenge which I enjoy. She is also a different character than I see in the genre she is in which is vampire.

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

A. I have two stories posted as of right now, but I have many more ideas to come.

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

A. The Unusual Kind is a vampire romance, but it will also have quite a bit of action in it. Cassie Richards lives in a vampire city full of corruption, and she has knowledge that is crucial to bringing about the downfall of it. The question is: can Cassie overcome her fears? I am working on other stories like I said earlier, but I don't have them all planned out yet. I have the general ideas about them though.

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

A. I have been part of book clubs in which writers exchange their works with each other. This is a great way to get feedback and help other writers. If you are a writer, I strongly recommend you join them. I have helped a few other writers, but it is usually in only a short part of their work.

Do you write for yourself or for the readers?

A. Both. I write for myself of course because it sometimes makes me feel incomplete to write a story, and it feels good to put something down on paper. I love some of the challenges that come writing, and I also learn tons of new things everyday. I also write for others not for reads or votes, but it is because I want someone to think, feel, or learn about something. I love stories that have messages and meaning, and that is what I want to convey in my stories. I want my stories to say something about life and people. I want to share something I have learned something in my life through writing, and I hope others learn from my writing as well.

Describe yourself in ten words.

A. Usually my personality depends on what kind of day I'm having. In general, I'm a pretty introverted person until I get to know you. In general I am: -Strange -Stubborn -Smart -Funny -Courageous -Introverted -Perceptive -Sassy -Feisty
