What is your name?

Nessie

How old are you?

16

What inspired you to write your first book?

I read other books and I didn't like how they ended or how they were written. I thought I could do it better ;)

Who is your favorite author and what is it that really strikes you about their work?

Ugh, that's a hard one. To pick one, I would say Shannon Hale, who wrote the Books of Bayern series. Something about her books is just magic... it's difficult to explain if you haven't read them before. They have the Harry Potter vibe but much sweeter. I can read them again and again.

 What is your favourite theme/genre to write about?

At the moment I don't really have one. I'm just dabbling around in everything I can. But whatever genre I write, I want to evoke emotion in the reader. That's a must.

Do you see writing as a career? 

I wish I could, I really do. But the thing is, especially in high school as you have to make all your choices, you have to face reality. You have to have a career to fall back on. And of course I'll try to get my books published, but I can't have my whole heart set on doing only that.

 If you could work with any author who would it be?

J. K. Rowling. No question about it. I did a project on her and Harry Potter last year and I found her life fascinating (just like her books). To me, she is the biggest inspiration you could ever find in a writer, so working with her wouldn't be too shabby at all.

Votee--->>> if u didn't :)

Do you use real-life facts based on true stories? 

If you mean I use inspiration from events that happen in my life, I guess so. I mean, I don't do it on purpose exactly. I'll be writing a scene about two best friends and they might end up having a conversation that I had with my friend. It's natural. But I don't try to do it on purpose.

 Did you ever think you'd be, where you are right now?

Hell no (excuse the language). Maybe where I am - literally, in my house - isn't that big of a surprise, but who I am now compared to who I was 5 years ago? I wouldn't recognize myself. I've gained so much confidence and am so much more positive - it makes me proud thinking about it. And did I ever think my story would have so much success on Wattpad? No way! I wish I had when I was beginning!

What advice would you give to people who "run out of creativity" when writing? 

Sit down and think a moment. Is it really that you have no more ideas, or are you just too lazy to sit down and try? I'm not condemning anyone, I do exactly the same. It's the hardest thing, and I often use 'writer's block' as an excuse because I would rather lay on my bed and watch tv. Only you realize that that's your problem, write yourself a schedule or promise yourself a reward, so to force you to start. After that, it's easier, I promise. If you really have no ideas, take a break. It's like at school - we can't absorb everything at once, it needs to breathe and relax. Go for a jog, bake a cake, see some friends. I don't know. Do something. Sulking about it (I do this too!) won't get you anywhere. (I should really listen to my own advice!)

 Do you ever suffer from writer’s block? If so, what do you do about it?

I think I just answered that as well. Oops!

Do you have any advice for other writers? 

Don't expect it to be perfect. Please don't. It's the biggest de-motivator. Your first drafts are going to be terrible. You're going to want to throw them out of the window and set them on fire. Just don't. You need to push through that - don't go back and edit every two minutes. Push forward, and you'll end up with your story. After that it's so easy to go back an tweak and twist a little. Trust me. Otherwise you'll be running around in circles.

 Anything fun about yourself you want your fans to know?

Uh, I enjoy books and apple-pie with whipped cream and strange music and paranormal tv shows and history and big sweaters and my overly expensive shoes that I just bought that puts me in debt for two months (no joke - but they're beautiful) and my wattpad fans and arguing with people (debating, if you were to put it elegantly) and... uh... Chow Chows (a type of dog that looks like a bear and has a mane like a lion. It's pretty epic.) and sarcasm and the colours forest green and yellow. That's it. I think.

How would you describe yourself? 

Awkward. (Does anyone else watch that show?) Sarcastic. (It's my only sense of humor.) Tired. (It's far too late right now, and I still need to watch the new Doctor Who episode - yawnnnn.) Magical. (No explanation needed.)
