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

A showcase @michellelauryn, author of Guardian Demon

1 what inspired the idea of your story?

I am always inspired by different stories based in the same world like Marvel.

2 what is something you struggled constructing with your story?

I struggled a lot with my characters "want" and their inciting incident that drives them to get their want. But I was fortunate to have my editor Rebekah Faubion help me with figuring that out. She has a wattpad book called Ellie is Cool Now with her co-author if anyone would like to check that out!

3 what did you enjoy writing most of your story?

I enjoyed developing my characters the most, especially their romantic tension.

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

I'm new to wattpad, but everyone I've been talking to is very helpful and respective.

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

It is the first of a trilogy with two spin off series in the works. I am a fan of multiple worlds like Marvel.  

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

I would love it if they can relate to my characters (if they can't then that's ok). I would want my story to help change a persons life.

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

I always say to never give up. Always follow your dreams.

8 does your main character share any similarities to yourself?

Claudia struggles with who she really is and acceptance. I struggled with accepting myself too, but I am more confident now. 

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

I would hope they love my magical New York City filled with demons and witches and the lgbt romance in it.

10 do you have any future projects?

Yes I have so many! I want to write about fantasy drug lords, evil superhero's, Norse mythology, and even more paranormal romance because it is my favorite genre!
