1 what inspired the idea of your story?
What inspired the idea was a little bit of my life story mixed with Anna Todd's "After"
2 what is something you struggled constructing with your story?
Honestly, I didn't have any trouble constructing the story. I'm a bit of a plotter, so a good portion of the story was planned out.
3 what did you enjoy writing most of your story?
I enjoyed writing the love story, but I enjoyed writing their internal struggles and conflicts. What made them the people the were at this point in their lives.
4 what's the overall response of your story from your readers?
I personally didn't know people would gravitate to it as much as they did (Which sounds bad coming from the author, I know.) But I've gotten DMs from readers saying how much they love the characters and when the hell am I coming out with book #2
5 is your story a stand alone novel or a piece of a series ?
It's a piece of a series. I'm getting currently in the process of writing book #2 and plotting book #2
6 what would you like your readers to take away from your story?
That nobody is perfect. Even the couples that seem perfect have issues, and addiction can ruin lives and relationships.
7 what advice would you provide to fellow writers, when it comes to focusing on their own story?
I would tell them that it's important to be disciplined. Set a time every day to write, even when you don't want to, listen to music that reminds you of the scene (or even Inspires it,)and use the Pomodoro technique.
8 does your main character share any similarities to yourself?
Yes! Clara and I both are writers and are crazy in love with musicians. :)
9 what is something about your story you believe would draw in new readers?
I would say a love story
10 do you have any future project
Yes! I'm working on a brand new book series that takes place in an art school, and Another story that's kind of like "Lolita" but everyone's an adult.
