➽ QUESTION 1. ❝What is your name (or nickname/pen-name if preferred)?❞ — Camisha or Misha
➽ QUESTION 2. ❝What started you on the path to writing?❞ — Funny story (well to me). I think I was in the sixth grade and I used to spend nights at my cousin's house. Basically, one of my cousins used to write these short stories while I played and when she was done, I would read them. Let me tell y'all how she really was good at writing the story, till this day I remember it was about a man caught between two women.
➽ QUESTION 3. ❝When did you first realize you wanted to be a writer, and specifically in the genre of urban fiction?❞ — I first realized I wanted to be a writer in urban fiction after reading the "Coldest Winter Ever" by Sister Souljah which is like the foundation to getting to urban fiction. I also realized that I myself was a product of urban fiction, I seen everything I needed to see and was like "hmm I think I can a story on this."
➽ QUESTION 4. ❝When did you write your first book and how old were you?❞ — It was called "A Thorn on a Rose" and I think I was in the eighth grade and finished it mid freshman year of high school. I wrote it all in a notebook and also lost it. I wish I can write it again on Wattpad but I can't remember it for a damn thing lol. It really was popular with the girls in my class though.
➽ QUESTION 5. ❝Who are some of your favorite authors on and off Wattpad?❞ — Off Wattpad: K'wan ( I am in love with the Animal series, just patiently waiting on the fifth installment) Brittani Williams (Author of the Black Diamond series) On Wattpad: First things first is BeYOUtifulLex lemme tell y'all sis is TALENTED. She deserves way more followers and reads. READ "No Loose Ends"! I have read the story twice, that's how good it is. I also have my UWC sisters which is all mentioned in my UWC reading list.
➽ QUESTION 6. ❝How long have you been writing?❞ — I've been writing since the six grade, I started off in poetry. People honestly wanted to buy my poetry for some odd reason then I started writing stores after, but I dabble a bit in poetry from time to time.
➽ QUESTION 7. ❝How do you think you've evolved creatively?❞ — I think school helped with evolution in writing and then after school from reading other stories and just going through personal things as an adult has made me a better writer. I would say that most of my stories seem realistic because of it.
➽QUESTION 8. ❝What are the upsides and downsides to being an author?❞ — Upsides are that I'm bringing my imagination to life satisfying readers and keeping them entertained. I'm honestly doing what I love.
The downsides—Wattpad wise; readers are demanding and not in a nice way, I'm talking about deep in the messages asking everyday for an update as if authors don't have a personal life. Another downside is when readers try to direct the story and make it seem like they have a say—NEWSFLASH—I wrote it, but I can't lie it's also an upside cause readers really give me ideas to how a story goes.
➽ QUESTION 9. ❝What do you love most about the writing process?❞ — Back then, I used to write a whole chart on how I wanted my stories to go and everything down to the character. Now that i'm 25 and getting older, my writing style has became smoking a joint and letting my mind just come up with some fire details and ideas that I write down if I'm feeling it. I guess that's what makes it fun to me. I legit come up with the greatest things when I'm high, I'm not saying do drugs but if you already there try it.
➽ QUESTION 10. ❝Why do you write? What keeps you motivated during creative slumps?❞ — I write cause honestly it keeps me from going in a deep ass depression. I escape the world and make the story that nobody has read yet. What keeps me motivated during creative slumps are honestly the close friends that I have who tell me I need to write, and then weed. Weed helps a lot lol.
➽ QUESTION 11. ❝Do you outline books ahead of time or are you more of a by-the-seat-of-your-pants writer?❞ — I am the by-the-seat writer cause just like the readers, I'm figuring out stuff too lol, but sometimes when it comes to certain things, I do have to outline because I'm the type that really will go off the book because I'm trying to fit so much in one chapter or story.
➽ QUESTION 12. ❝How many books have you written?❞ — Wattpad: 20 (some are unpublished) and I have around six stories written in notebooks locked away in the garage. Maybe one day I'll publish it. It's hella' cringe though lol.
➽ QUESTION 13. ❝Out of all the books you've written, do you have a favorite?❞ — "Running The Streets" is honestly my favorite. Maybe because it's the current story I'm writing at the moment but it's my baby.
➽ QUESTION 14. ❝If someone is brand new to your work, what book do you think they should start with?❞ — "Pusha Man's Girl"—it's my mature work, but if you wanna something old, it's between "The Book Of Syn" or "As Real As It Gets".
➽ QUESTION 15. ❝What do your fans mean to you?❞ — My fans are special to be honest. They help me out when I'm in some type of writer's block and most of them of the funniest people I ever came across. They are honestly the best that I have came across in the almost ten years that I have been on Wattpad.
➽ QUESTION 16. ❝What advice would you give to aspiring authors?❞ Write because you love it. Write because it's your passion. Don't settle for the same plot as others, write something that NO ONE has ever heard before.
