@zadien AHAHAH was he like hired by the trade union of small local businesses? XD MALLS ARE EVIL! lol Enchantix is so old that even I remember the theme song, and I stopped watching ages ago. But at least Riven is back!

1. Favorite place to write.I don’t really have a favourite place to write but I tend to write the most in my room and on my bed. It’s where I can sit in a corner with my back to the wall and block everything out for a bit and just get writing done. Usually, it’s at night because people are less tempted to annoy me but the only problem with writing on my bed is that it’s also really tempting to just lie down. At some point, I want to have a proper writing space. 

2. Favorite part of writing.That moment when I get completely in the zone and the characters are so vivid and loud and are eager to tell their story. And it’s just such a joy to write that I feel so good like I’m on a high - though it always comes with a crash too so take the good with the bad. 

14. What’s the most research you ever put into a book?Research is kind of essential to everything you write. You have to write what you know to make it sound authentic and so that your readers feel like they’re immersed in the world. And to write what you know, you have to research. I bought a book about fairies for Saving Part of the World and I have a map of Belfast and that’s just for a fanfic. There are files and documents and so much stuff I’ve researched for the novel but that’s not even the tip of the iceberg because as it’s the first draft, I don’t want to get bogged down with research and lose precious writing time at the moment. 

26. Standalone or series, and why?Series. I think all my favourite books are parts of series because you get to see more development with the characters and you really get a sense of the world. But I also appreciate books that are part of a series but can also standalone. 

31. Hardest character to write.Currently, it’s Dylan but that’s because he’s still holding himself back and not revealing much and I haven’t had a chance to write him as much as I’d like. But I find a lot of characters hard in that I think with some of them, I know them and then I worry that I’ve actually just created my version of them. Kai is always a challenge to write because it’s so easy to fall into stereotypes and tropes with him. Brooklyn and Tala are tough too and Max, Max is surprisingly difficult for me to write. Not even joking, I worry about every scene I write with Max in it. Again, I worry about tropes and stereotypes and everyone has their version of Max that if yours doesn’t live up, you lose readers. 

52. How did writing change you?I honestly don’t know because I honestly can’t remember not writing. I was around six or seven when I started writing, so I mean, it’s meant that I don’t have free time. That when most people go home after work and watch TV, I pull open the computer and struggle to write something every night. I begrudge going out and socialising because it takes away from writing time. I feel guilty if I don’t write but when I do write, I’m the most productive person in the world. 

46. What would your story _______ look like as a tv show or movie? So clearly Saving would be an anime because it’s a season four fanfic. All the characters would look like a little older, a little more seasoned and we’d have loads of lush bright colourful scenery and then when things changed, lots of darker shadowy city-scapes. Characters would change clothes because clothes are fun and always afford cosplayers a little more choice. OH! And scenes would be broken up with character profiles - like the ones Ming-Ming will have on twitter and the scoreboard for whenever a blader wins a round. 

Now the Novel would be a show kind of like Riverdale crossed with Gilmore girls. Atmospheric and grim in a sense, based around a small town so everyone would know the main landmarks and the side characters who may not be vital to the plot but are vital to the world building. It would be all bright colours and fun at the start and then slowly it would become greyer and greyer. There would be loads of scenes in the woods and on the heathery hills with clumps of buttery yellow gorse bushes. And there would be musical themes, for the show itself and for certain characters, that would be slowed down or amped up according to plot. The characters would look their age because I’m fed up of 30-year-old actors pretending to be 15. And it would only have like 13 episodes because it really doesn’t have enough plot for a long series, and can’t be padded. 

Always draw what you want! Otherwise art becomes a duty, which ruins all the fun. btw I’m always here for an adorably dorky Alistair

Razzmatazz: I would share my favorite food with you

Lmao that’s the highest form of compliment in my book XD You know how much I love food and what value it holds for me. You’re a true friend :’)

Scarlet: You have influenced my decision/thoughts on something.

thank you bby i love youu :3

Ask Away Tumblr..

5. What is your favorite scent?

i like tropical and fruity scents in general, but mostly in scented candles (mangoes and peaches, guava and papaya, tangerine)in perfumes i like cool and icy scents on men, something that is there and noticeable but not strong enough to smell from 10ft away. im crap at explaining scents lmao and cool and icy is the best way i could describe it ; w ;

10. What is something you find romantic?

i literally find everything romantic lmao i can literally find anything romantic as long as it’s the person i love.even when the gesture is coming from someone i dont have feelings for (or rather someone i hold a dislike for), i have a soft spot for things or gestures that people would do that they consider romantic.

39. Do you get jealous easily?

very. I used to convince myself before that im not that kinda person but man im jealous af. making me jealous is so easy. over time i’ve come to realize that it honestly doesn’t even matter how close i am with the person or how much i trust them, i can get jealous really easily. im a very jealous best friend and potentially a very jealous partner when it comes to relationships. i may not voice it or show it most times but i do get jealous a lot.

42. Ever had detention?

nope ; w ; i was a good kid 

43. Would you rather live in the countryside or the city?

as beautiful as countrysides are, I’d rather live in a city. It’s just a lot more convenient, everything is so close you could just walk down, or even have it delivered to your house. 

57. What would your dream house be like?

i’m not sure about the details, i just want a two-storey house with a cozy yet trendy interior. nothing too fancy. something that makes me calm down rather than being overwhelming. 

i want pictures tho, lots and lots of pictures around the house! and many many colors, not on the walls but mainly on the furniture and other things in the house.

66. Do you have a middle name? If so what is it!

nahhh i don’t have a middle name. i would’ve loved to have one tho.

93. Do you believe in aliens or ghosts? 

So Amber is Gryffindor clearly. She’s impulsive and brave and friendly. She’s willing to stand up for what she believes in and sticks to her guns. 

And since Pukwudgie represents the heart, Amber falls into that house too. Ilvermorny is a much more difficult house to sort people into but she’s someone who’s driven by the art. 

Spike preparing for the olympics tho x’“D
