It influences it a lot. I’ll be sitting in the car and just look around and start thinking of things as if I were writing them, how I would describe what was going on around me, and I’ll just think up these random plots.
7) What is your guilty pleasure in writing? {Optional} [i.e. R-rated etc.]

6) Last question of the interview, What are all your stories on your profile? Give a brief description of each. [Optional] {5-10 sentences} [Give as many of your stories as you want]
Well, my first is “Lonely” and it was written when I was younger so it can be a bit confusing, but the plot is interesting and I love the characters. It’s a fantasy/romance/sci-fi. It’s about a boy who is held captive in this castle for eleven years, and then this girl named Sadie falls in and they escape together, then they have to go and meet with many people, because they have a lot on their plate, like saving the world.
The other one is “Hanging On” and it’s my latest story, and I am very proud of it, not to toot my own horn. It’s about a Girl named Sydney who lives on a farm with her mother, and her mother takes in a boy named Tucker, who is on probation, and slowly Sydney and Tuckre find out they have more in common than they would ever expect, and fall in love, but Tucker still has a lot of his past that’s following him around.
“Silverlane” is a short story my sister wrote as a school project. It’s a mystery, and she is very proud of it and begged me to put it up. It’s about a murder.
