The Rose Club Interviews

Flo (@scuttlebirds)

K:  Hello, Flo! Thanks for letting me interview you. How are you?

F: I'm doing good :)  Np at all! Thank you for interviewing me^^

K: Alright, let's begin. What's something you wish you could shout out to the world right now?

F: NEVER THINK OF YOURSELF AS LOWLY OR NOT ENOUGH. YOU WILL ALWAYS BE ENOUGH! FLAWS ARE IN l, PERFECTION IS OVERRATED. Also, BIGOTS, RACISTS,  AND DISCRINMATORS OF ANY KIND CAN SUCK IT!

K: What's something you'd like to change about Wattpad?/dislike about Wattpad?

F:  There should definitely be a report button for plagiarizers. Like immediately deactivate a person's account, more negative repercussions or something. I've seen to many people have their books plagiarized, it's horrible and obnoxious. No one should go through that. Also editing former comments should definitely be a thing!

K: Do you struggle with vulnerability?

F:  Definitely. I feel vulnerable in my writing skills most of time. I'm always worried that it won't be good enough, that it's not grand enough and I need to be better than this/that. It's a very consuming dark thought that messes with your confidence. Sometimes I'm very confident and happy about my writing but then out of nowhere like a gust of wind, I feel like what I wrote needs to be better. Always better. Near perfect.

K: I'm the same way. What's something you strongly believe in?

F: Although I am a Christian religious wise, I internally feel agnostic. (Note: For anyone who doesn't know been agnostic is basically the belief that you can prove or disprove the existence of God.) I'd like to believe there is an afterlife but I won't truly know until I pass :')

K: What's something considered uninteresting by friends/family that you enjoy/find intriguing?

F: My interest in books and writing. I love reading books of most genres but I especially enjoy the dark themed kind. My sister doesn't like to read or write on her free time. My dad is only interested from what's on his era or current news. And my mom doesn't like the kind of books (dark, angsty type) I read. She thinks the dark kind with turn me evil or something. Books that make you look at life and people in a different way I enjoy. It's always be a fascination of mine. But reading always takes me into another world and helps me progress and learn as a young writer^^

K: How did you know someone loved you/you loved them?

F:  I know when somebody loves me when they listen to me. If I'm feeling down or frustrated in the person takes the time to be patient with me and my frustration and just talk to me that's how I know they really do care. Also buying my favorite food is a good sign as well. When they listen, relate, and speak to me I feel more at home than anywhere else.

K: Where's creativity place in your life?

F: Creativity comes from many places, I think. Whenever I write, I take inspiration from books, shows, and writing prompts just to keep the creativity flowing. Anything that's simply interesting to me I try to utilize that creatively and make something from it.

K: What's the scariest thing you've done that was totally worth it?

F: For me, it was posting my poetry.

K: How do you calm your mind about your insecurities?

F: I listen to music to calm myself or give myself a hefty pep talk. I feel like whenever I listen to music it just clears out the negative thoughts and helps me write and think more clearly. I try to remind myself nobody is perfect, perfection is only what you make it out to be, and only I can change that about myself. Most of my inscurties are washed away when think from that angle.
