italics means my opinion...
Probably my height, I'm quite short compared to the rest of my forest like friends, so you would notice those giant beasts first and then the small person next to them next.
hahahah ik the feeling...
Some scenes I guess are used by inspiration of real life events, but it's 0.01% into the scene. For example I could be walking home really late at night through alleyways and I would put the alleyway into my story especially if there was an art mural on the wall and would make a chapter around it, or something exciting/scary happen to the main character, however that wouldn't have happened to me. I use places and details more so than experiences. Thinking of the top of my head I really can't remember a situation that was bad, I usually have my friends or family around me to help.
Nixon was my "male" name, a bunch of friends and I made male names for ourselves, and this was my favourite. The reason it was y username is that I have more than 10 Wattpad accounts and I keep starting stories without finishing the rest, so I had to make a new profile after my works had more than 10 published visible stories or else my followers would kill me if I keep starting a new story everytime without finishing the rest.
More than you want to know, and I wish even more. I have full time study and work which leaves me barely any time to write, but in the holidays if I can I would sit and write the whole day, except I often get non writing moods which I want to write but my fingers just won't cooperate and I am demotivated.
writer's block sucks everyone!!
Hobbies would be roadtrips, I love road trips and often my followers/readers see me on my Snapchat or Instagram in the middle of nature or doing something stupid. I like to use everything I see into my stories, and also road trips are 3-4 hours long sometimes, best place to type away in the car or think of a new plot, because most times my friends are driving for half the time.
Once my readers block lasted for 4 years, and sometimes it still plays in effect. I stopped reading but I would keep writing it was so bad, I never even read my own books I just write and send them off to my editor to proof-read.
how reader's block feels like:
I write all genres, I don't like Cliche so I always try to turn cliche ideas that I sometimes use into real life issues or more unique, I like books to be a dose of realistic. Whilst everyone wants the 'perfect' character or story, life isn't like that and while you want to escape to another world I like to make it somewhat realistic so people have the hope it can happen to them or how to get out of something.
that's why i love your stories
I would like to do it as a career, except in this time/generation a lot of people are talented and write a lots, and books are very particular, people may or may not like the way you write it etc, so it's hard to make a solid living out of it, which is why I wouldn't consider it was a living, also I love writing, making money out of it might defeat the purpose of it. I write because I want to but without any other ulterior motive, always good to make some money of the books but for me it's more important for my book to be published so my readers have it in hard copy to read whenever they want.

Not particularly. I moved around when I was little a lot so I'm all for my characters to have a fresh new beginning or start.
Writing is easy for me, but the quality is not. Whenever I write It can be of shit quality, and then I can re-write it or erase it, but to write a good chapter it does take some effort. Anyone can write, but the saying practice makes perfect is very real here, the more I write the better I get. And strange, well not really but I can make up a story anywhere out of anything, a mango? Sure, I can make you a whole story about a mango with a proper plot and everything in ten minutes, that might be why I have so many profiles cause I keep creating stories.
*reads mango* you gotta be kidding me . lol
That I love them, I really do and without them I would've stopped writing a long time ago. Depends on which account, some of them I call "Pocketees" those who were a fan of Marriage by law and other works by N.K.Pockett, there's a Facebook group and everything for them. It's really good to speak to them on a normal level and sometimes about other things than stories.
I can't eat or drink when I write, which is really weird like I can get really hungry but if I leave my spot writing when I come back I will forget or not feel the mood. I can't eat and write at the same time cause I have minor OCD and I'm like I got to eat the food and write, too much confusing brain overload blow up. So I eat snacks like scoff them and then write. I do like drinking coffee or ginger tea while writing. But that's with most things, even when studying if I get up and get distracted by food or something I can't come back to where I was. I guess its a "zone" thing.
I like the "feel good" aspect, my first published book I was very young when I wrote it, around 13-15 probably and I'm not sure how 36 million people like it but I hate it, I don't think my work is any good as a little teenager it was very immature (The character was meant to be 20-24 and acted like she was 10) but I think it's the feel good aspect that made everyone like it. Whilst it is a challenge to read it, by the time you finish it you will fall in love with the characters.
i guess this sort of this is quite popular here...
Both, I love writing and the way it makes me feel, I like reading people's comments on Wattpad more, I keep refreshing the chapter as soon as I upload it to see the first few comments and always interact back to my readers, however there are always nasty necessary stupid comments, and that exhausts me. I went on a 6 month writing break cause I was so sick of people commenting stuff on this story, which was a very controversial story about weight in the first place so I expected that, but people who ignore the authors notes and the story and just say crap annoy me. If they have a solid opinion and they were right I would definitely listen and welcome their opinion, everyone is entitled to their own, but when they start saying other people's aren't and they are right, that ticks me off. I am a very fair person I like to think and I don't like people picking on others.

what to do when haters arrive:
I can write about a rat and make it a superhero of a story. It's changed me in some ways, sometime it makes me more patient, other times not. It gives me something to do when I am bored or have time, which is rare when you are studying and working, especially those days where 20 hours are spent doing work I just wish I was at home typing away. I do have a "drunk story" I like to tell people when I have some drinks apparently, it's about rats, so yeah, I might start a story about a Rat.
meet the latest sneek peek to our dearest author's future story! exclusive scene!
Absolutely nothing, I don't usually incorporate myself into my characters, like mentioned I might uses places or things but I never put me into them. Beside I've got a lot of stories in progress on Wattpad and each character is very different, and almost bare no resemblance to me.
They hijack it, and I Don't mind it is their story. For "Born for Royalty" I had the whole story planned out, but as I kept writing they took over and it ended up doing a drastic 180 and what was meant to be a adult romance turned into an action romance with a plot twist that made about 6 million readers angry at me but love me at the same time so I loved that.
And what animal; that's a hard question. I would like to be most of them, can I be an animal a day so I can see how they live and their emotions etc?
you would probably be a jungle book literally then...
Again most of them, can I be a character a day, I would like to be the male character as well to get into their head and see how they feel etc, especially cause some male characters in my story are very mysterious, even I don't know what they do or think and I don't want to make them do something that I know they don't fit. They have their own lives and I write their lives but they decide their own day.
*drools while thinking about born for royalty and the enforcer characters*
Favourite, I can't pick a favourite child. Darius and Ivory from Marriage by Law will always have a soft spot cause they are my "First" kids in a way of writing and first published book which ended up being sequels on sequels but I hate sequels so I try to end the books properly and just have a spinoff book etc. I'd probably get along with them all but then also not get along with them all cause each one has a plus and minus about them.
To make a chapter good, before I even write a story I have the whole story in my head, not planned but what the plot is, to put that on paper, if I could type a million words per minute, I can finish 3 stories in a day, that's how many I think of. But to write them chapter by chapter and put my head on paper is hard, and I just wish I had that time to finish off every story (Whether amazing or shit) off.
That I should have spent more time in class listening to teachers cause my grammar is terrible and it's even more funny that my mum is a English professor uni level and I am here using stupid words like big and small cause my vocabulary skills suck.
How many people actually like my stuff, it will still shock me and I am glad to wake up ever day to a new person that joins my group.
I was reading some werewolf stories on Wattpad and I couldn't believe how some of them were written, by chapter 3 the couple had met, probably had sex and were deeply in love, and I was just sitting there like, the rest of the story was about them and their jealousy or something just around that. Nothing wrong with stories like that but for me that wasn't my type so I thought I would give a shot at writing werewolf and tried to put a solid plot in or something. I have started them ages ago and left them so long some parts of them I hate, I feel like I dragged it around so once I finish I'll have to go back and edit.
Turn me Twice (TMT) maybe, cause it's got both Vampires and Werewolves and whilst I haven't written much I will tell you it's a book of many twists and darkness within the characters that might be really interesting and also deals with issues most people face.
The Enforcer and The Sirens Call hopefully I can finish and start re-writing and editing them soon but I would read those next, Enforcer is a great action packed one while Siren's Call is more about understanding and their relationship. Originally it wasn't about that and had a action plot but overtime the way the book turned out I had to change it. maybe when I am editing it I can try to bring back my original plan.

Needletongue, Carrotcake
The world isn't fair. If anything, the inherent injustice of the world is what separates it from the fiction we so adore. Luis Freighthold knew this all too well, and that was why it took a bit longer than it should have to realise when he suddenly had everything he could ever have wanted. Raised in a working-class single-father home, Luis had no other escape than fiction. Specifically, vampire stories of varying quality and genre. There was something appealing about the ability to fly, turn into shadows and become smoke. Danger. An unfamiliarity with the social world that rejected him so. Was it so wrong for him to hope for a different life? Maybe, maybe not. Either way, now he had it—a lust for blood and abilities beyond the understanding of civil man. Could you really say that he had anything left to complain about? A vampire story following an unconventional vampire boy forced to accept that maybe becoming a vampire doesn't magically solve all your problems. As a matter of fact, it might just make a whole bunch of them even worse. Regardless, Luis is prepared to try everything to live up to the vampire books he had previously gorged on. What did it matter that his vampire form had no teeth, replaced instead by a long, needle-tipped tongue? He was still a vampire, wasn't he? Chapters are around 10 A4 pages long, releasing once a week on Mondays, 01:00 CET.

"Shut up, I'm just keeping you from falling face down in the toilet." He whispered in my ear and I felt his breath against my skin. "Yeah right. You are soooo hugging me." I teased him knowing he was indeed hugging me, but he was too stubborn to admit it. "No, I'm not." He said, pulling me even closer to him before curving his lips against the skin behind my ear. He's such a goner...❄️NOTE: 👀 please ignore the way the first ten chapters are written. First book ever and that's noticeable. It gets so much better after those I promise.
