A Simple Folded Paper

Q & A

How did the idea for this book came to you?

One night, in May 2017, I was reading a camren fanfic based on post-it notes and this idea came to mind. I think I wrote the first 6 chapters that night, after searching what I wanted to write on the notes.

How old are you?

I was 16 when I started this book, now I'm almost 18.

Do you intend on publishing this book?

I do and I don't. On one side, I would love to be able to provide you with this book in paperback and I would love to hold my baby in my hands, on the other side, can someone tell me how the hell do I tell my parents that I wrote a lesbian novel, when I'm supposedly straight? PS: I'm so fucking not.

What was your inspiration for the notes Camila left on Lauren's locker?

I just googled something like "sappy compliments" and Daily Odd Complement came up. It's a bunch of pictures on Pinterest that someone else wrote, and I used a bunch of them to this book. It's in the description of this book, actually, but I only put it there when I completed the book, because I knew some of you would check them out and then you would know future notes that Camila would give to Lauren.

Do you have any regrets, regarding this book?

Kind of, I regret having Camila proposing to Lauren on the epilogue, that was way to fast to happen and it kind of ruined a path I had for my sequel.

Do you plan on doing a sequel?

Yes, when Ink and Sex Olympics are finished, or at least on SO it's on its way to be finished.

Now, I need to ask you - my readers - two questions. 1) In order to publish this book, I have to change all the notes of Camila sent to Lauren, because I do not own the rights, so if you have any suggestions for sappy notes, please comment them or message me them, that would help a lot. 2) If the book was published, even if it was just on online format, would you buy it?

Thank you all for this jorney and make sure to check out Ink and Sex Olympics.
