Wattpad Interviews

LovelyOwls

Today we'll be interviewing LovelyOwls, author of Princess Charming :) Enjoy!

1) What's your name?

Zully, it's my nickname but everyone calls me it.

2) How old are you? 

16

3) When is your birthday? 

6th July

4) Can you describe yourself in five words?

Bubbly, creative, short tempered, friendly, and shy-ish :)

5) Why did you join Wattpad? 

Because of stories! People write so many stories and want people to read them, so I'm hear to read them and share my own stories.

6) What do you like most about Wattpad? 

The books of course and the lovely writers. Plus you get to share your ideas.

7) Do you plan on making a career out of writing? 

I might, I'm taking English Language and English Literature in college so...fingers crossed!

8) Good luck :) What kind of genres do you enjoy writing? 

teen fiction, adventure, fantasy. I like thriller stories with mystery too!

9) Would you try writing a story of a different genre? (E.g. Horror or Sci-fi) 

I could try, building suspense is difficult for me, and I don't get that many ideas around sci-fi and horror.

10) When did you first start writing?

Would you like to tell us a summary of your first story? - It was a fanfiction, that's how I started writing. I'm sure I wrote little stories as a child but when I realised English was my strongest subject, I started writing my own :)

11) What motivates you to keep on writing? 

The ideas, the characters I imagine in my head. I sometimes have a great idea, start it off, but the thrill of writing fades :/ which isn't good! I try my best to keep it interesting for readers and myself.

12) Who are some of your favorite authors on Wattpad? 

racingheart (love her books), I like Call-Me-Bell, there's so many and I can't think of them from the top of my head. I think everyone should look at who I've fanned or my library to see the writers I like.

13) Who are some of your favorite published authors? 

J.K Rowling for sure, that woman is a genius. Rick Riordan, Suzanne Collins, Casandra Clare who started off as a fanfic writer, so she's done very well. And more but can't think of any!  

14) What is your favorite book? 

Harry Potter series! I love them all but if I had to choose, it'd be the Half-Blood Prince book :)

15) What is your least favorite book? 

Ergh, I'm not sure! I'll say Angel by L.A Weatherly, it was still good, and I've read the sequel (waiting for the last book) I enjoyed it but it lacked some things, like the romance was kinda quick.

17) If you could publish any of your books, which book would it be? 

Oh dear, I'm not sure! None of them unless I write a proper book I am satisfied with. The books on Wattpad aren't the best to publish.

18) I'm sure you'll publish something genius :) How do you deal with criticism? 

If it's harsh criticism, then I ignore it, because I know I'll only say harsh things back, best not to say anything. However constructive criticism is helpful and helps my writing improve, I allow that because it makes my writing better :)

19) Interested in the Watty Awards? 

I have two books entered into that, 'Princess Charming' and 'The Exchange Student' so please support my books and hopefully you'll read them and vote/comment too!

20) If any one of your characters could come to life, who would it be? 

Isabelle from Princess Charming, I've made her a friendly, clumsy person you'd like as a friend, so maybe her, or Nathan from the same book.

21) Which character is most like you? 

Caroline is funny from the same book, she's the kind, sarcastic friend that everyone has, or Isabelle again.

22) What qualities do you look for in a guy/girl? 

Sweet, funny (likes Harry Potter xD) has to be kind, and take me as who I am, I won't change for anybody/

23) What's your favorite song? Why? 

I've liked so many, but anything by Avril Lavigne/Taylor Swift/Paramore. I've always admired brick by boring brick by Paramore. Great song!

24) What is the sweetest thing a fan has ever told you? 

That they love my books, told me I'm a great writer which is so sweet! I smile helplessly when people say that.

25) Do you have a joke?

Yes - What is the hottest place in the jungle? Under the go-rilla xD Get it, Gorilla, Griller? I'm not crazy!

26) Haha! Cheesiest pick-up line? 

Did it hurt when you fell from heaven! xD

27) Most embarrassing moment in your life? 

Walking into a lamp post while I was on a school trip. I should watch where I'm going :/

28) What are the five things you want to do in 2013? 

Travel, make new friends, write books! Escape my crazy life, I don't know. Something new for sure.

29) What would you name your cat?

Mr. Kitty :) Which will actually be a character in one of my books soon.

30) Any last words for your fans?

I LOVE YOU! Thankies so much for reading my books and fanning! I can't believe the support and fans! You're amazing! xx

31) Any advice for budding writers or those with writer's block? -Keep an open mind, inspiration is everywhere, you just have to look closely and you might get and idea.

33) Did you see that? 

Haha! YES I DID! I ain't steewped! I know I'm not good at maths but come on, where did 16 and 32 run off to?! :D
