Breach of privacy is a very sensitive subject and is punishable under court of law. Well, I'm a lawyer and crimes inspire my mind in the best of ways. Cyber bullying just happened to be one of those subjects I always wanted to explore as a writer.
The character build up and the structure. I had to make sure that I was writing something believable and relatable. I'm a realist writer and I always plan on bringing stories on survivors to the table.
I enjoyed living vicariously through the story, after a moment, the characters and the plot seemed so vividly real to me, I was lost in that world. Besides, I personally love exploring darker themes, they help me understand people and grow as an individual.
It's absolutely unbelievable but I've not had a single person come out to tell me point blank that my story isn't good enough. It's surprising yet deeply satisfying. I always seek criticism to sharpen my edges and I'm still looking out for my readers to help me serve them better. The response has been totally amazing and I'm beyond grateful for that.

Quite frankly, I'm not sure about it. I tend to think of it as a stand alone novel but who knows? It will probably depend on my mood. Sometimes I do tend to take decisions in a whim and decide to continue a book.

A lot of messages actually, issues like cyber crimes, breach of trust, bullying and basic legal procedures. I'd like my readers to take the message that whatever doesn't kill you, certainly makes you stronger. Life can fall apart like a house of cards but you will stand right back up and roar like the lion that you are--there's just no other choice.

My advice would be to focus on the rather more technical aspects of the writing. Sure you have a brilliant idea and you have so much to tell, but what's a book without good adverbs? You don't want your editor scowling at you when they read your script. It's not pretty.
A few of them yes, I particularly relate to one of the protagonists named Ella, she is smart, broken yet downright rational. I think she got those traits from me.
?
The fact that my story is based on a gossip column that exposes all the secrets and deceptions. I believe it will draw more readers in. Who doesn't like a good mystery thriller that's easy to read? Plus, don't forget the romance. There aren't many things my readers won't relate to except the obvious aspects such as the murders.
I do, yes. I absolutely revel in the joy of weaving intricate stories but I'm still working on updating #Exposed so, I'll keep my future project as a secret for now.

Arnar the Dungeon
Arnar is a dungeon core. Everybody knows dungeons are evil, man-eating entities hell-bent on killing and absorbing whatever wanders inside their depths. The problem is no one ever told him that. Well, the truth is no one ever told him anything and he refused powers-that-be when they tried to make him into the proper dungeon. That should teach them not resurrect people into dungeon cores. Now it is too late. He has a perfect plan to become the best dungeon on the continent and nothing will stand in his way. Especially something called common sense. Disclaimer of sorts: I am non-native English writer that used to write mostly for himself. After my last computer decided to die on me taking all my works with it I lost the desire to write for quite a long time. This is my attempt to go find motivation to write again as this was my favourite hobby. The idea is to be held accountable. As for being non-native, I don't believe that should be a major issue as I feel my proficiency in English to be sufficient enough to not be too much of the distraction. That said, be forewarned that the rules governing punctuation are beyond my grasp. All I can do is try not to completely suck at that. As mentioned this is an attempt to motivate me to write again so any message, encouragement or constructive criticism will go long way. The cover was created with the help of http://fantasynamegenerators.com/emblem-creator.php I hope you will enjoy my story.
