Let's get to it!

1. What was your inspiration for Slow Suicide?

  Basically all the short stories in my reading list, "Favorite Short Stories/Poetries". For the actual plot, I don't really know. One day when I got home, I was thinking about writing a new story when the words just randomly came to my mind.

"He was a smoker. She asked him why. He said it was his slow suicide."

2. Will there be a sequel?

Yikes, I don't know. I honestly love this story with all of my heart. This and Fixing Isabelle are my best works so far. It hurts to part with them but I don't really have any ideas for a sequel. If you do, comment and I'll consider it.

3. Are you going to write any other books similar to this?

  Hopefully, yes. After I complete Fixing Isabelle, I'm going to work on this secret, unpublished book...and a couple other hundred. I literally have so many ideas. Don't worry, guys. Writing, at least for me, is an everlasting cycle.

  4. So, they had a happy ending, right? Rainy didn't die or anything? No one committed suicide?

  Nope, they had a perfectly happy ending. Of course, like any other relationship, they have their ups and downs. But their love for each other always comes through. Like I said before, I love happy endings.

  5. Did they have any kids?

  Obviously! I wouldn't be able to live without mini-Cigs and mini-Rainys.

  6. Is this a true story?

  Gee, I wish. I wish this could've been my love story but sadly, no. I don't have a Cig and I'm not Rainy. Perhaps somewhere out there in the world, there is.

  7. Where is this story set in?

  Well, I don't have a specific setting. Most people thought it was in England because of the way they speak. Here's all I got: there's a public park with tall trees, a playground, and houses all around it. The rest is up to you!

  8. Do you have any stories you recommend?

  Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes! These are also my inspirations. Let me list them for you.

  9. What's Cig and Rainy's ship name?

  I don't know! Let's see... Rag? Rig? Ciny? Wait, I got it. Ring!

  10. Will you marry me?

  I believe the correct terminology is "will you be my slow suicide?". But, nevertheless, yes! I would totally marry all of you. They should make up a friend marriage, am I right?

  That's all for Slow Suicide, guys. Again, thank you so much for reading and I'll never forget your wonderful comments.
