Meet The Authors Showcase Edition #2 (2 of 3)

A showcase with @AliPatrex1, author of The way life goes

1. What inspired the idea of your story? 

Actually my story was based on my idol's life , all the drugs and the cartel thing . I added to it a little bit of side stories of my own imagination and made so much links between real life situations and this idol's life. 

2. What is something you struggled constructing with your story?

 Well I didn't struggle in the concept of the story cz it was actually made up in my mind from the beginning, but linking the ideas I came up with and mixing real life situations that people would relate to was something I struggled with cz I wanted to be so sure I delivered the message correctly.

 3. What did you enjoy writing most of your story?

 Well actually I enjoyed every single moment I wrote but I so much enjoyed showing the character's ability to take responsibility of his own decisions in such young age , and to make right choices no matter the circumstances were. I just liked in general the way I made him sound.

4. What's the overall response of your story from your readers?

 Till now I didn't receive any dislikes on my story , the readers seemed to enjoy reading it and always waiting in suspense for the other upcoming chapters , so the responses are quite promising. 

 5. Is your story a stand alone novel or a piece of a series?

 I made all the story up in my own imagination, ideas just seem to come to my mind , and I drop them in a strongly linked way , to make things more interesting so I guess it's a stand alone novel.

 6. What would you like your readers to take away from your story?

 I want my readers to believe in themselves, and no matter how much your life was harsh on you, there's always a way to turn things out and a chance to taste the bright side of life. You'll understand all the decisions that you shouldn't and should take in your lives, some are highly effective others are fatal. It is what life is ,always cling to it and never let go of what you want to be.

7. What advice would you provide to fellow writers, when it comes to focusing on their own story? 

 Just keep on coming up with unique ideas that make your stile stand out from the other writers, don't use the same ideas in every story you make , and don't use expectable things you should always surprise the reader. 

8. Does your main character share any similarities to yourself? 

 Actually no, it's a unique character I came up with he's more related to a deceased man I was a fan of , but added some external ideas to it. 

 9. What is something about your story you believe would draw in new readers? 

 It's only that they will witness the unexpected in every plot twist of the story and things always become more interesting ,some chapters will give you suspense, and the end of the story when it's complete will deliver a good message to you.

 10. Do you have any future projects? 

 My ideas just keep on popping up , I have many things in mind , I'll expand them into many stories. Thus, many future projects are coming . ;)
