1. When do you begin your writing routine? (morning, afternoon, day, evening)

I actually don't have a clear routine, but if I do at the moments, it's in the evening. 


2. What do you need for your writing routine? (laptop, notebook, ect)

Notebook always, I only write in notebooks really, and then type in the comp.


3. What is your main focus, when you're working on a story?

I first make characters and only then plot. I need to have clear directions before I start writing so the idea wouldn't flop.


4. What is something important you've come to learn, since you've begun writing?

 I learned that writing is different for a lot of people and that not all of us are similar even tough we are writers.


5. Do you believe having some sort of writing routine is helpful?

I think it can be, but I still don't have it haha, I only write when inspiration hits me and thankfully that is not rare for me.


6. What is a writing strength of yours?

 I think my writing strength is creating characters and just writing what I truly like. I think personal touch is sooo important for a story.


7. What's is a writing weakness of yours?

My weakness is actually following rules. Like, I know I can't just throw away literary devices and stuff, but I still do haha.


8. Do you ever share your writing outside Wattpad? (other social media platforms, family, friends)

Yes, my family members read it, as well as my irl friends. I like to ask them what they liked and disliked and of course, who is their favorite character. I also share my writing via Instagram and discord.


9. What's a good piece of writing advice, when it comes to beginning a new story?

When beginning a new story, first think about it for a longer time and let it "sit", and then, if it still sounds great, write it!


10. Who is an author you admire and why? (on or outside wattpad)

I don't read as much outside wattpad, but some writers and friends from wattpad I admire are @LucyAnnWrites, @MariamShakaib, @Beetlemaniac, @Bridget_Boyd and some others, and here where I live, I have few writer friends like @AvisTori, @meadownightgazer, @MusicArtAndOther.


11. Do you believe an author interacting with their readers is important?

Yes, I love interacting with my readers! Tbh, I tend to abandon books where the author doesn't interact, no matter how good the book is.


12. How do you believe a writer can build a fanbase?

It all comes back to interacting with their readers, that's the way to build the fanbase.


{Story overview}

Title: One More Highschool comedy, Chaos Begins 

  status: complete   Genre: Absurd humor/Teen fiction


Summary:

 When Camilla moved schools, she never expected she would meet someone as wild and strange as Remi. Despite her quirky and happy appearance, however, there is more to her that hides underneath. Soon Remi decides it is time to make a friends group, and who better to invite to join than her way-too-close bestie Imber and the girl who stalks people for fun Kirstin. This end of school year will be wild for the girls, but we won't even mention three sisters, Marisa, Kira and Vivi Denel who all apparently work at same school and have some...ehm...issues. So, will they go crazy on a supposedly normal fieldtrip? Yes. Will they mess something up? Don't even mention it. With these teenagers, and these not so mature adults, in this high school it really never gets boring.

If you like : absurd humor, over the top characters, sillyness, simple writing style, fast pacing and like slightly weirder stories, this is for you! Idea was inspired by 'high schop stories, but make it weird'.

It is part of One More Highschool Comedy series.
