Well, it was some emotional struggles that I had during the moment I made a decision to write. One of my characters resemble someone very important in my life, and each time I recalled some things about him it, made me want to immortalize his character. (Unfortunately he's more). It was probably my way of dealing with the loss. However, I can't even tell how I came up with the story LOL.
2 ?
(Sighing) I was still an utter amateur when I began writing this story. My vocabulary was poor, I made several grammatical mistakes, typos, and many other writing mistakes. It was my learning point, I can say, that thanks to WATTPAD I got to receive some feedbacks from the readers and my fellow writers; that by now I can say I'm proud of my improvement. Also, like I mentioned before, this piece is quite sentimental for me, hence I had quite an emotional struggle while writing. Some aspects reflected my real life experiences, so it would get tough at times. Oh, and that famous question; WILL THIS STORY BE AS INTERESTING AS I WANT IT TO BE?
3
Frankly, I was so awed at the readers' response from the very beginning. I had no room to feel awful about my work, so I thank God for that. Even when it was a poor skeleton of my idea, I still got encouraging feedbacks, which is the reason why I try my best to polish it everyday as I keep receiving both constructive and blushing-worth comments
4
Everything! I absolutely enjoyed everything in my book. Oh well, that's too general, right? Haha. Seriously, I loved writing about my characters, their lives, strengths, weaknesses; so it quite an interesting journey. I also loved writing about Montana, which is like the main premise of the story, as it's one of my favourite places in the word. I love reading books, History, museums, so it was all fun writing about the stuff.

It's a piece of a series called THE FOUR SEASONS. As you can see, I've started with THE COLDEST SUMMER, which is the BOOK 1. And there's THE WARMEST WINTER, the BOOK 2. There will be two more books to finalize the series.
6 ?
Love. Friendship. Forgiveness. These are the three things that I'd love for anyone who read my book to feel and take. We all need to love and be loved, even if all hope is gone; there's surely your soulmate somewhere. Oh, it doesn't need to be a romance. Even the love of a true friend, the love of a mother, they're all what we need. True friendship is hard to attain, but if you have it, keep it. To forgive and be forgiven is as important, for we all make mistakes.
7
Be the character. Wether they are good, bad, horrible, insane; try to be that character when writing about them. That brings the story to life. Also, love your story; we all excel doing what we love, right?
8
Haha YES. I can say I was emotionally seeing myself in her. (Hey, not entirely, huh?) I'm a cryptic person, and perhaps I automatically made her be like me.
9
is it weird that I don't know for sure? What makes people read a book? Is it a good cover? A blurb? Reviews? Promotion? I swear I don't know haha. I think I'll pass this question and I'll start thinking of this
10 ?
Oh yes! Although I still have to finish the current one, as the series is incomplete. But I'll definitely have more books to come.

Fair warning dear reader, this is an 'unfiltered' story, sometimes sweet, others bitter, touching some heavy subjects or problems, like crime, war, betrayal, pride, politics, revenge etc set in a Epic Fantasy backdrop with shades of Grimdark. In its heart of hearts though, it is an adventure. The Old Realms saga is only published on RR for free. It is in the author's plans to publish it on Amazon and other platforms at some point. If you see it offered anywhere else, or someone tries to charge you for it, please report him. It is illegal to sell, or take advantage of intellectual work without the author's permission.

Dungeon Man Sam
Dungeon Man Sam is a character-focused slow burn dungeon-building litRPG with elements of crafting Real Time Strategy. It updates 6 days a week, with a break on Saturdays. Dungeon Man Sam Vol. 1, Dungeon Man Sam and the Orphaned Core is now available on Amazon and Kindle Unlimited! Official Dungeon man Sam Discord! Drop by and say hello! We're still tiny, but if you wave to me I'm always happy to wave back and chat! --------------- In a world where dungeons function as the backbone of national economies, dungeon construction is big business. Wealthy nations spend millions to have the best dungeon builders construct labyrinthine edifices full of the most dangerous traps and planted with the strongest dungeon cores in the hope of luring powerful adventurers in to retrieve the treasures generated deep within. Samuel Tolliver works for his father, who runs the finest construction crew on the continent. It is a good life, one that keeps him close to family and that earns him enough money to pursue his inventions when he has a free moment. He even has something of a talent for fixing things and keeping the various bits of equipment running. It should have been the best job in the world. There's just one problem. Sam hates dungeons and wants to destroy them all some day. And he's got the plan to do it, too. But life has a way of throwing curveballs at you. When a series of disastrous events that he himself set in motion culminates in Sam winding up dead, he thought that was the end of it. Until a voice came to him and offered him a deal, one he simply couldn't refuse. Now Dungeon Man Sam has returned to life as the guardian for a strange new dungeon core, one that will turn everything he knows about the world upside down and force him to set aside his hatred of dungeons. For the sake of himself, his friends, and his family, Sam must construct a dungeon like the world has never seen before and defend it against all comers, be they monstrous or adventurous. If he succeeds, he'll get to see his family again. If he fails, everyone he knows will fall into the grave. And somewhere beyond the range of his knowledge, something ancient and terrible stirs and takes notice. Dungeon Man Sam: When all you have is a hammer, you build. --------------- This Is A Work In Progress: This isn't the final form of Dungeon Man Sam, there's gonna be some typos, and things may change between chapters as I realize "crap, I didn't set that up nearly as well as I thought I did". I'll let you know if anything like that happens, and if you notice anything that you think is worth pointing out, feel free to let me know! Hope you enjoy the story!
