Interviews With Members Of Wattpad

Interview with @smurfrielle

1. What is your favorite genre while writing books?

Mystery, of course! After that it would have to be paranormal. I have had a connection to both of these genres for many, many years.

2. Would you say your chapters are long or short?

It depends on the content, really. On average my chapters can be anywhere from 4,000 to 6,000 words. I don't over-kill when writing a chapter because people like the relief of moving onto a new chapter.

3. Do you update your books often?

Very often! Deerborn: Bloodline is updated sometimes multiple times a week, it all just depends on my personal schedule and whether I'm plotting. As for my other books, they aren't my main focus right now --- so there is no set updates for them at the time being. I'm focused solely on the Deerborn series.

4. What is your favorite type of music?

Indie, grunge, chillstep, classical, acoustic --- I actually have a variety of music I enjoy. But those are my top favourites.

5. If you could meet anybody from any book you ever read, who would that person be, and what are they like?

Eric Northman from the Sookie Stackhouse novels. If you've ever watched True Blood or read the books, you'd understand completely. Eric is very narcissistic, yet somewhere deep down, he's actually a decent guy --- or should I say vampire?

6. What would you say is your everyday style?

My style as in writing or how I dress? I dress casually with a bit of flair, as for my writing I don't really know how to explain it --- it just happens.

7. How did you find Wattpad in the first place?

I used PocketWriters before Wattpad, and I just happened to look on a forum on PocketWriters about switching to another writing outlet. The person mentioned a few websites, but said Wattpad was the best of them all, so I decided to try it out. Suffice to say I never looked back.

8. Do you do anything else on wattpad other than writing? Like covers and banners?

No, I've tried to make graphics before and I just don't have the knack for it. I am lucky to know quite a few amazing artists on here that are more than willing to help me design my covers/banners. However, I do give some writing advice every now and then --- only when I feel like it. I have a pretty busy schedule so I've never thought about opening a forum to help people.

9. Have you ever took time and became a co-writer?

I actually have been offering, but I never receive any response. I think it's a neat concept to build a story with another person, to study their understanding of the language and to really pick their brain in order to come up with something marvelous.

10. If you didn't feel like answering all these questions just to get an interview, would you have told me?

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. I love answering questions, I have no problem with it whatsoever. I'm always happy to do interviews because I realize the importance of them.

Thanks so much for your time

ME: No problem! I love giving out love!
