What inspired you to write your first book? I have written mostly my whole life, and I just progressed from there. My cousin has been a really great writer, and I got inspired by her work, so now I write alongside her.

Do you have a specific writing style? Well, I tend to write in third-person, and I love writing romance.

Are experiences based on someone you know, or events in your own life? Usually only my OCs reflect me. Actually, every character I create has some trait from me, so they all reflect myself in them!

If you had to choose, which writer would you consider a mentor? My cousin definitely. We help each other with our stories, share our ideas, and share our writing!! She is amazing. Vyntresser has a really cool writing style too, go check her out! c:

What book are you reading now? I've been reading the series' from Melanie Dickerson, and Throne of Glass from Sarah J. Maas!

What are your current projects? A bunch of different stories...

Name one entity that you feel supported you outside of family members. My best friends have totally supported me through my writing.

Do you see writing as a career? Actually, I think of it as more of a hobby. I may publish a story in the future, but I don't want writing as a career. I want to become a zookeeper or work through my church, and writing constantly would wear me out too quickly as it is mostly a pass-time for me.

Do you recall how your interest in writing originated? I started writing probably after I read my cousin's writings. I was a "monkey see monkey do" kind of kid, being the youngest of the middle kids in my family. I always looked up to my older cousins, and I think that's how I grew a love for writing.

Is there anything you find particularly challenging in your writing? Definitely starting the story or getting it finished on time to start/work on another project. I never like finishing stories too quickly, but sometimes it gets challenging to fill in the parts between the beginning and the end.

Do you have any advice for other writers? Ask for help if you need it at any time!! I ask for ideas or inspiration from family and close friends all the time! Also, be careful what you post online. It is very difficult to prove a story stolen if it is online.

Do you have anything specific that you want to say to your readers? This entire thing is pretty much stuff I've ditched...xD
