~About your writing life~
1) At what age do you think writing started to appeal you?
I guess at the age of five, when I started writing about the feelings of caged birds!
2) What made you want to start writing?
That’s a difficult question, indeed. I was gifted a beautiful notebook and a pen when I was little – that’s when I started jotting things down. Also, the books which I read, which mainly consisted of fairy tales and such, made me want to write my own.
3) What are you favorite genres to write? Why?
Fiction, since it makes we wonder!
4) What is your main goal you want to achieve on Wattpad? How do you plan to accomplish it? Someday I’d like my book THE ALPHA AND OMEGA OF MAGIC get like a gazillion votes and comments. I’d love more fans and hey, I’d like a special spot in the Watty Awards.

Oh yes, it is. Even if I don’t get time to write every day, I make it a point to at least think about writing and its sheer magic!
6) How does writing influence your life? If it does, what role does it play in it?
Writing does influence my life. That’s how I like to convey my emotions in my piece of work and let my fellow writers and readers, feel it.

N/A

I generally write after I come back from school in my Mother’s laptop. I note my plot and ideas in a few pages of Post-its, though.
Your reading rituals

I love Fantasy, Adventure and little bits of suspense incorporated in both!
2) When do you normally read? And also, where do you read? [i.e. mobile sites {iPod, Samsung etc.}, or internet sites]
My preferred option is reading an actual hardcopy, rather than e-reading. Other than that, I login into Wattpad every day through my PC, since it’s become sort of an addiction. Now, I do realize that I need to divert my concentration back to my academics, since exams are round the corner!

I like Kirsty1000 and XxSkater2Girl16xX.

I do not believe in all this nonsense. But, my grandparents who have Indian superstitious beliefs think Monday is my lucky day. Trust me, Monday is the day we go back to school and that sucks!
5) What books would you recommend to others?
