I was tagged by @givethispromptatry Thank you for the tag!

1. Is there any scene from any piece you’ve written that actually scared you? If so, describe the scene.

There aren’t any that have scared me horror movie style, but I did recently write one that made me a little concerned about myself. I cannot describe it, because it’s a bit of a surprise for the people reading the book. (and it’s coming out soon! :D)

2. What genre do you feel most awkward writing?

I don’t enjoy writing anything that is too based in reality. If there’s no magic, or awesome futuristic tech then I get bored really easily. 

3. How many different types of writing do you write? Types of writing include novels, short stories, poetry, song lyrics, etc.

Not many, honestly. >_<  I mainly write novels, and short story clips of the characters in those novels. I really like haikus, but I can’t think the word “poetry” without hearing Sabine from Moulin Rouge and then I laugh and can’t think.

4. How old were you when you first starting writing?

Very young. The first short story was about a teen that magically turned into a dolphin and swam away from everything. It made no sense. I finished my first novel (18 chapters, I think) in 7th grade, so that’s when I say I started writing.

5. How confident are you in your writing?

I’m growing more confident lately. Thanks to a good friend of mine, all of y’all, and (mainly) @givethispromptatry. If I had to use a scale, I’d say 5.5/10. 

6. Have you ever written and posted anything that was very personal to you?

I don’t think so... I try to keep my personal stuff separate from my writing.

7. What inspired you to start writing?

Twilight. I wanted to write a better one.

8. Which of your OCs do you relate to most?

Umm... Some kind of weird mixture of Ace, Salem, Nyssa, and Isabeau. I guess. I try to not write characters too close to myself, because I don’t think I’m all that interesting.

9. Have you ever written self-insert fan fiction?

No. Only in my head, but I’m really only there to make sarcastic comments. 

10. What is your favorite piece you’ve ever written about?

Anything with Karma and Roman working together to agitate someone else. I don’t think I can pick just one.

11. How frequently do you actually sit and write?

I try to write at least once a day. 

12. How many hours at a time do you do research on your writing?

A lot. Way too many to count. It’s mainly biblical and mythology stuff, and baby names that have dark or unusual meanings. (Thank you NameBerry :D) 

13. Do you like to branch out in your writing or do you tend to stick to what you know?

I’m trying my hand at branching out right now. I have a Sci-fi book that I’m working on right now, that I’m having a blast writing. Not too far though. I love magic.

14. What would your antagonist of your current WIP say to you if they saw you in person?

Something along the lines of “Pathetic human, why protect your domestic canines when you could protect yourself?” Because if I had to face a terrible monster, I would make sure my dogs are safe. Obviously.

15. Do you consider yourself your OCs god or just kind of a guiding hand (Or other? If other, please list)?

I think of myself as a god. Though, there is a god in the book that isn’t me.

16. What do you think you’d be doing with your time if you never got into writing?

I’d like to say I’d put more focus in my business, but right now the accurate answer would be Skyrim and State of Decay 2. I love video games. 

17. Have you ever written a smut piece?

Nope. I prefer to allude to it, and then skip to the next day.

18. What was the first thing you ever wrote about?

Beside the terrible dolphin teen I mentioned earlier? The novel was about a girl and her twin who got mixed up with lion-shifters. It was oddly gory for a book written by someone in 7th grade.

19. What is the most creative creature you’ve ever created for world building?

I try to base my characters and species in different types of mythology, so I don’t create very many. I have a few alien species that I’ve created that I’m proud of, but my favorite creatures in any of my stories are The Reapers. They’re a take on the Grim Reaper. There’s just a lot more of them.

20. Tell me one random fact about your WIP that you have yet to tell your followers.

Roman and Ace have two more brothers and together they make up the Four Horseman of The Apocalypse. 

Nanami is on the run from the Mermaid government and her Siren parents.

About the book just like millie

In a gentle story from Caldecott Honoree Lauren Castillo, a shy young girl finds exploring her new city and making friends overwhelming—until a rescue dog helps her uncover the bravery that was always in her.

A young girl and her mother move to an apartment in a new city. Despite her mother’s efforts to take her out, the girl would rather play by herself in their cozy home—she feels just fine on her own. Introductions to children her age have her hiding behind her mother’s legs, and invitations to group activities have her in tears. That is, until she meets Millie, a rescue dog who is not too big, not too small, and kisses her arm when the girl nervously reaches out. With Millie, saying hello to new people isn’t so scary . . . and maybe making a friend isn’t either. Through emotionally honest prose and soft, expressive illustrations, Lauren Castillo explores one girl’s shyness and anxiety—and how one dog’s love helps her open up—in a warm picture book that reminds readers of how the right companion can make the world feel like a less frightening place.
