Hey world! This is Bethany speaking! I am very excited about this interview as it is with one of my all time favourite authors on Wattpad... PRINCESS_ROSE!!!! She is the GENIUS that writes 'The Cheerleader and the Cage Fighter are... Dance Partners?' and one of my favourite books on Wattpad! I know you're going to love this interview! Enjoy!

1) How did you find Wattpad?

I was searching online for a new writing site to write on and ended up finding Wattpad via Google... and I'm very glad that I did :)

So am I!

2) Your story 'The Cheerleader and the Cage Fighter are... Dance Partners?' is one of the best things that I have ever read! How did you come up with the story line?

I wanted to write a romantic story about two people that on the surface appear to be complete opposites. I always get forced to watch UFC/ MMA/ Boxing, etc so I decided it would be cool to have a boy that was

a fighter and a girl that was a cheerleader as cheerleaders are stereotypically seen as being overly happy and bubbly.

3) Did you have any particular inspirations or influences?

I straight away thought of Brittany Snow for Kaydie and in my opinion she's almost perfect looking so I decided that the character Kaydie was going to be viewed as being perfect by the people around her, not only in looks but in personality, etc. I saw a fight between a fighter called Dominic Cruz and I think he was probably part of the reason that I decided to have a fighter in my story as I took a bit of interest in his fighting and his back story.

4) Like any normal girl would be, I am loving your character Liam! How did you come up with his character?

Well, a lot of young UFC fighters are really good looking so obviously I wanted him to be too. I wanted him to come across as being a bit of a bad boy but also that he was smart and a good friend. I wracked my brains trying to think of an actor that looked like how I imagined him; initially all I could think of was Matt Lanter (but he was the person I used for Ricky in MLWSWY), but then I remembered the character in Vampires Suck and was like AHA! THAT'S LIAM! I wanted Liam to be someone that could kick someones ass, but also be loveable (and huggable).

Haha, I love that film!

5) Can you give us any sneak peeks into your next chapter or are you going to surprise us?

Liam and Kaydie go to the fair with Chelsea and Jordan :)

6) From reading your book I can tell that you are a big fan of Avenged Sevenfold ;) So are they big influence in your life? (Loving the 'scream' bit in TCATCFADP btw)

Yeah, I've loved Avenged Sevenfold for years, they're amazing. I met them in 2006 which was amazeballs! I almost got the deathbat tattoo when I was 18, but I chickened out at the last minute - I think I'd still consider getting a tiny deathbat tattoo. I find their music very therapeutic when I'm angry or stressed lol. I actually wrote a few Avenged Sevenfold fanfics years and years ago.

Nice! I am so jealous!

7) Did you think that your books would be this popular?

Nope - I'm really ecstatic that they are though.

8) Is there anything that you'd like to say to your fans?

Thank you so much for reading my stories, I truly appreciate it. I know sometimes I can take a while to update, but I have a lot on my plate at the moment. It does make me really happy though that people are enjoying the stories enough that they are willing to wait.

9) What advice would you give to people who are about to start writing their own stories on Wattpad?

To write for themselves. Some stories will become really popular, some won't - it's important to not let the popularity of it affect whether you continue writing it. At first my MLWSWY didn't have many reads or comments but I loved the story and I continued writing it anyway.

Great advice!

10) Do you want to go into writing professionally or is it just a hobbie?

I would absolutely LOVE to, but I don't think that I am anywhere near good enough. When I read my stories, I know that they can be improved loads - it's just finding the spare time to properly edit them.

Well I think that you could definately publish them!

11) Do you have a favourite author and book on Wattpad?

I have quite a few.... I'd say that at the moment I'm eagerly waiting for katrocks247 to upload the next part of Death I My Frenemy - I love the whole Death Is My BFF story that she's done. My other favourite authors and stories are: Reekles - The Kissing Booth, xXBeautifulFighterXx - The Way He's Not, farawayfromnowhere - Never Have I Ever. There are loads more stories that I like.

12) What is the pet peeve you hate the most?

I hate people that talk behind your back, even though they repeatedly say "If I've got something to say, I'll say it to someones face". Like I've said before, I also hate hearing English people say "awesome".

13) Favourite band?

My favourite bands of all time are: N'Sync, Green Day, Avenged Sevenfold, My Chemical Romance, Simple Plan, Good Charlotte and Paramore.

I am also completely in love with My Chemical Romance!!

14) Favourite song?

I like so many songs.... N'Sync - I Want You Back, Green Day - Redundant, Simple Plan - Save You, Good Charlotte - Hold On, Avenged Sevenfold - Warmness On The Soul, The Calling - Wherever You Will Go.

15) Favourite film?

The Lost Boys and The Little Mermaid.

The Little Mermaid was my childhood! Oh how I love that film!

16) What is the most amazing thing that has ever happened to you?

Having my little girl. It's been hard work, but she is so worth it.

Aww, that's lovely!

17) Finally... team Edward or team Jacob or team Twilight sucks?

When I first read the books I was all Team Edward and hated Jacob. Then when I saw the films, I started liking both of them (fickle I know). So.... Team Edward AND Jacob.

Haha, both is a VERY good answer :P So there you have it folks! Still in awe that I got to interview princess_rose *squeals*... and I'm over it :P I hope you enjoyed reading this interview as much as I enjoyed it! A huge thank you to princess_rose for taking part and a massive thanks to YOU for reading it! Peace out and rock on! :D
