1. What is the title of your story?
A. Ariella.
2. What is the genre of the story?
A. Romance/Teen Fiction.
3. Can you give us the summary to your story?
A. When Ariella and Mark are paired in Zoology, their lives become closer than anything before. Their friendship becomes stronger than ever and they believe everything will be all right as they help each other in situations that they couldn't even deal with themselves. But as their friendship becomes more, everything seems to fall out of place. When Ariel and Mark believe that their attempt at a friendship isn't working, will they try harder or let things go?
4. What gave you inspirations and ideas for the story?
A. I wanted to write a cliche-twist so I created something that probably not many teen fiction romances are like. But I really don't know; I made it up when I was trying to sleep one night and it was three O'clock in the morning.
5. Why do you think that your story is good for people to read?
A. Well, I know many say this but it's because it's not like what you would generally think. I try to stay focused on the bonding of the characters instead of the full on romance and I try to be different in all sorts of ways. There are no popularity contests at the school my characters go to. I mean, all of it is based on originality and realism. I'm not too sure how it's going to go (It's being turned into a trilogy) and as far as I have in my mind, It'll kind of turn into something else other than romance because of subplots I have in my mind... But I'll try to still keep it on the track of romance, you know?
6. What helps you stay motivated when writing your story?
A. The thought of the last book. I really think the last book would be odd but really creative and I like the thought of it.
7. How do you feel when a bad comment is posted on your story? Anything to say to those haters?
A. It depends on the comment. Was it a critic who just stated the bad but gave me advice to work on it? Then I would have to thank them. Or was it a person who just started hating on it for no reason? Then I will tell them something along the line of "Well...That's your opinion." And move on.
8. Lastly, anything to say to those who have read your story?
A. I hope you like it. I'm hoping to enter it in the Watty's but I don't know...
