Interviewing the Average Wattpader

1.     How is life?

Tough these days. I love life, but school has really been making it stressful. Writing is the best outlet right now.

2.     When did you join WattPad?

September 6, 2013. Though I didn't post anything until late September.

3.      What motivated you to write?

I've always wanted to tell people the stories that were looming in my head since the day I could talk. It started out with stuffed animals that I played with my best friend, and soon after it got to paper! I guess I just love how when you write, you can do absolutely anything. It's your own world that you rule like a God.

4.      Who would you like to see playing a character in your book?

Hmm that's tough. I haven't thought of any actors, but if was an anime/cartoon, I would choose Todd Haberkorn (voice actor of Death the Kid from Soul Eater) for one of my characters.

5.      Any advice for other WattPaders?

Have patience! Don't give up writing just because no one reads your book, or if you get horrible reviews. If you like it, then for sure there are other people who like it too. Make friends and enjoy your gift of writing (and yes, I know you have a gift for writing because everyone does). ;)

6.     Do you play any musical instruments?

I sing if that counts (not professionally). I also am taking acoustic guitar lessons at my school and electric guitar lessons privately. It's really fun.

7.     Favorite Movie?

I don't watch many movies, but I'd say Dracula (1930s one), Nosferatu (I think it was made in the 70s or 80s. It's in German), Dr. Horrible Sing-Along Blog, and Megamind.

8.     Do you like pickles?

Yes! But only if they're in a burger or something. And cucumbers are decent.

9.      If you could change one thing about you, what would it be?

Well, half of my OCD. It has hurt others and people tend to not understand that I'm not trying to sound aggressive; I'm just asking a simple question. I also get very angry very easily and try to hide it all since I know it's just my brain overreacting. But I do like the other half of my OCD, because it helps me be motivated to do things, like finish my book.

10.   Favorite Color?

Red then black then purple then green then blue. But, to be more specific, scarlet is my favorite shade of red.

11. Favorite ice-cream flavor?

Bubblegum and Oreo!!

12. Do you have any special/hidden talents?

I can breathe out in a certain way where I make a two-toned voice and sing like that. It sounds like a robot or a train, which is perfect because my story is about a train!

13. Are you currently in a relationship?

Nope. I've never been in one, though I've had a few crushes... hehe. Quite frankly I don't really care if I get married or not. I'm happy either way.

14. If you could have any animal in the world, illegal or not, what would you have?

A BEAR. Any bear. Of course, only if it didn't try to hurt me.

15. What kind of music do you like?

Power metal! I love it so much! It's one of my favorite things ever. It's basically metal music, but with melodic singing (even opera singing at times!). Nighwish, Dragonforce, Hammerforce, Sonata Arctica, Seventh Wonder, Kamelot... they're all so good. If you don't like metal, you should really try it out anyway. There are some melodic songs that aren't so metally too.

16.What would you pick- Love or money?

Depends. Family love for sure, but romantic love? Sorry, but I would have to choose money probably, Haha.

17. If you were a super hero what powers would you have?

To fly, to automatically be smarter than everyone, to grant world peace, and to travel into my story and meet my characters for real.

18.If you could steal one thing without consequence what would it be?

Someone's heart... <3 :3 Nah, not really. Probably someone's soul.

19.Tea or Coffee?

Well... actually I've never had tea before, and I'm scarred from coffee because when I was younger, my mom would make me chocolate milk and forget to give it to me, so I would go into the kitchen and accidentally drink her cold coffee that she left out too long. So... technically tea is in the lead.

20.   You’re given 1 million dollars, what do you spend it on?

First, college. Then a house, a car, whatever other loans. Then I keep some of that for traveling around the world and for my writing. I'll keep a few extra bucks for fun stuff, and then donate the rest. I want to help others and also people won't try to steal my money or beg for it.
