Hi there! I was wondering if you were free for that interview I mentioned a while back? xx

Yeah! Sorry for the silence. Notifs are a bit wacky today.

That's all good! How are you, anyway? xx

I'm doing good. It's been a quiet day, which is always good.

I've been really excited about doing this.

Haha, me too to be honest 😁

What inspired you to write your story? xx

I had always been a fan of animation and vintage stuff. The arrival of Bendy and the Ink Machine & Cuphead had really added to this huge interest in the past, and that was coupled with this really unique Tumblr blog I discovered where the creator was taking these characters and taking them in a new direction that blew my mind.

Wow, that sounds epic! I had never heard of it when I started reading your fanfic, but it sounded so intriguing by the way you wrote it xx

What do you want readers to get out of your book? xx

I wanted to show readers of this book that they didn't have to follow the "one-shots" or the " Character x Reader" so many do. I want them to take something you love in a new and creative direction. Tell us a new story and use some new curveballs to continue to blow minds.

That's what this blog did and that's what I encourage them (readers) to do.

Well, it definitely peaked my interest xx
