ACE AWARD SUPREME - INTERVIEWS

First Place in Chicklit, B2

1. What do you, as the writer of your works, like about your book (placed) the most?

The emotions and romance. Writing this book and getting into the characters' head has been quite an emotional roller coaster, and that's what I enjoyed the most.

2. What inspired you to write your book (placed)?

Bucky has always been my favorite character from the Avengers/Captain America movies. I think he's such an intriguing and lovable character. After watching the final two Avengers movies, I think there's just so much more story to tell about him. That's why I'm doing my own take about what happened to him after Endgame :)

3. How many books have you written, including the ones you have not completed?

6 (3 completed & 3 ongoings)

4. What inspired/inspires you to write?

Movies and everyday things mostly. For this book in particular, it's the Avengers and Captain America movies (and some hilarious memes xD).

5. Do you get writer's block frequently? If so, what do you do to combat it?

Sometimes, yes. When I get writer's block, I usually deal with it by taking a break from writing and getting some rest. I'll continue writing when inspiration strikes again.

6. How long have you been writing?

I've been writing for as long as I can remember, but it's only recently that I take it seriously :)

7. What was the name of your first work?

Dancing with the Dead

8. Do you have any thoughts, any comments you wish to say upon winning in the Ace Awards?

I'd like to thank all my readers and followers for the support they've given me so far! I couldn't have done it without you! Also, thanks to the judges for picking my book! I'm really glad you enjoyed reading it. Last but not least, thank you to the host for hosting such an amazing award! ❤❤❤

9. At what time are you usually more productive? Why so?

At night. I always write better when it's quieter :)

10. What is your take on the genres that you have written in (e.g romance, sci-fi, mystery)?

The thing that I notice the most about fanfiction stories is that a lot of people tend to underestimate it. I have to strongly disagree with that. A lot (and I mean A LOT) of fanfics out there are really, really good and written wonderfully. I hope people would change the way they look at fanfiction and give them a chance instead of judging them before even reading them.

11. What do you like the most about writing? Why do you like it?

I like the process of writing itself, but most importantly, I LOVE reading the readers' comments! They always make my day ❤❤❤

12. Do you have anything to say to motivate your readers who wish to become an author like you?

Don't ever give up! Always try to find a way to improve your writing, never stop trying, and most importantly, ignore the haters xD

13. What are your hobbies, besides writing? Why are they so?

I love to watch movies and sing. It's fun lol xD

14. What is the inspiration behind the title of your (placed) book?

In my book, Bucky and Laura are both trying to redeem themselves for their past sins. So, Redemption is the theme of the book, hence I picked it for the title :)

15. Do you find writing to be something you would pursue as a career, or only as a hobby?

I would love to pursue a career in writing! I hope someday one of my books can be published in the book stores :)
