My mom inspired all of my writing. I was homeschooled. My mom would have a class that included writing prompts. We had five minutes to write whatever came to mind. When the five minutes were up, we were graded on whatever we wrote.One day, my mom picked a prompt about someone getting stuck in an elevator with another person. Eventually, they become friends.Throughout the years, even after graduation, the writing prompt stuck with me. I wrote so many stories until one finally stuck and I fell in love with the plot.

I had a struggle with making my characters relatable. I want my readers to get their emotions involved.I don't even care if they hate a particular character, I want emotion!Also, this is my first real romance novel. So, it was a bit difficult to write a romantic story that didn't move too fast.
I loved writing because it allows you to create an entire whole inside an actual one. When you write, there is really no limit to your imagination. I had fun with the setting and simply things, like the dialogue for this story. Creating my characters and developing their personalities were the most fun for me.
Much to my surprise, I think a lot of my readers enjoy it. My comments and responses have all been mega positive, in which I'm super grateful. A lot of my readers have a love/hate relationship with my male protagonist, which, even though it sounds strange, I'm really happy about! So far, so good!
It's a Series! (I haven't really told that anyone that yet! lolol)Hopefully this first book is a hit. If so, I'll definitely be writing the stories of my other characters.
I want my readers to learn that it's important to always know your value.Stay true to your morals and work hard!Working helps you to earn respect, which will give you a good reputation.I also want people to realize that money doesn't make you happy. Being successful doesn't mean someone is happy.

I would encourage them to
Write Without Feedback.
If you love the story, someone, even if it's only one person will love the story too
. Accept criticism with an open mind.
If someone doesn't like it, don't let it get you down.
Stay positive and keep writing! The worst thing you can do is give up.
Absolutely!
There are so many!
My main character is very grounded in her morals. Even if her emotions are involved, she won't allow herself to go against them. She's very determined character and not afraid to fight for what she wants.We are also similar in that we are both hard-workers and ensure our quality of work is high.
Lastly, we both are very loyal to our friends.

Everyone is working towards something; albeit good or bad. They all experience different journeys to get to their destination. Each character has a story and I hope it holds enough interests that you want to find out what it is.

The hand that just a moment ago was holding a small ball of fire. A couple stray embers flicker through the strands, but somehow they don't get singed. He catches me staring and I end up gazing speechlessly into his blue eyes for a moment. I clear my throat, blinking. "Your... The fire. I'm just not used to seeing that, still," I say. "I always expect you to... to burn." "I am burning," he says softly. . Updated weekly on Mondays. Also available on Wattpad!
