interview #41 @Ella_Wisteria

1 what inspired you to write?

I get a lot of inspiration from reading different books and life about differentauthors. I also love reading and knowing about famous celebrities or famouspeople who were once struggling with life and had people who told them to dothat they wanted to do. But, they never gave up. That is what really inspiresme because sometimes I feel that I am not doing enough things to make my storyinteresting and I feel like giving up. However, when I read about otherauthors, celebrities or famous people and learn how much they struggled toachieve their goals I think that I should try hard too. I shouldn't give up andkeep on writing Because I believe That after every darkness there is light. So,I am struggling now to write, but one day i will do better and will besuccessful

2 what's one Wattpad goal?

My goal in Wattpad is to spread my words through my stories about something I seehappening wrong in the world. All my stories have Muslim characters with verymodern and unique theme. The reason behind it is that whenever I read Muslimromance books in Wattpad, I have seen so many books having male dominantprotagonists and it is always about how males protagonists are telling femaleprotagonists what and how to dress up. In fact, I have even read books wheremale lead character is getting overly jealous just because his lover is workingor talking to other males. Even if that is just family members and I feel likethis is sending such a wrong message to other Non - Muslim and even Muslim readers.Most Muslims books just seem to focus ononly drama between jealousy and male dominance. That is why I want to spread mywords in my book that male dominance and jealousy is part of Islam. I want toshow that jealousy should never take place between Muslim couples as it isruining the trust between husband and wife. Furthermore, I want tell my readersthat male dominance idea is a wrong believe. Yes, there are places where malesare dominant like physical strength. But, that never gave males any rights,even in Islam, to go off and control his female partner's lifestyle. It is awrong believe and Islam is way modern than that. There are people who I haveseen in real life wearing hijab and still doing whatever she wants and herfamily and everyone supports her. That should be the lesson. Islamic religionnever said about holding you back from making your life decisions, especiallyif you are woman. Therefore, I want to build plots in my story that are modernyet holding the Islamic values. In my books, I have talk about trust, religion,modern lifestyles, and giving freedoms and respecting each other lifestyleschoices. Therefore, this has become my goal in Wattpad that I want to spread mywords so that people can come out of the wrong believes and learn to respecteach individual and people whether is based of gender, race or religion and canembrace multiculturalism

3 how would you celebrate a publishing deal?

I do have a few books of mine published in a website where I get paid for mystories. But, if my book ever gets published in a paperback, I would thank Godand I would go out with friends and family to beach or park or hiking places justbecause I love my family and friends and I like travelling

4 Are you still surprised when you get a new vote, follow or comment?

I don't get surprise if I get a vote or follow but if I get comments I feel like I have somebody who love my story or me enough to drop a comment and tell me how to they feel about it. It just really makes me feel like I have a home outside of deal world where I have people who wish to talk to me.

5 what's your favorite holiday and why?

My favourite holiday is Canada Day. Now, it is a little unusual because if I wasliving back home then it would have been Eid and new year however, as Eid and new year aren'tcelebrate like how it is done back home and because I love Canada, I came tolove Canada day as well. Usually in Canada, with my whole family and me wouldgo to parks and do barbecue and stay in a tent or car at night time and look atthe sky and watch the beautiful fireworks. That is why I love Canada daybecause I get to be with my family and I get to watch fireworks!

6 what's your favorite thing about Wattpad?

My favourite thing in Wattpad is my readers and Wattpad friends who messages meeach day and ask about my day. I love when I see new readers reading my storyand I love when I see one of the Wattpaders dropping by my profile and saying a'hello.' Sometimes, it makes me feel like I am really close to them and also,it wasn't for the readers then I wouldn't be here and writing books. I love myreaders and Wattpad friends!

7 what's a song you enjoy? Who is the artist?

Okay, this is a hard question. I am not really a song type of person. I am more like a book worm who is reading books in her free time but I do like Jazz music. I am also not specific about songs. Like, I listen to English, Bengali, Hindi, Urdu, Japanese, Chinese, Korean and even Irish music. So, for me, if I listen to a music from any language or culture, even if I don't understand it but if I like the sound of it then it becomes one of my favorite songs. That's just how I work I guess? Language is just not a barrier for me when it comes to music. Any song with soft and nice music is something I go for usually.

8 what's your schedule regarding your writing?

I used to write every day in Wattpad, however I am getting a little busy withstudies so I am now writing and updating only from Thursday to Sunday.

9 what's a good piece of advice for a newcomer?

I would say a good piece of advice to newcomers are that never give up. There is always upside down in physical life and online but what matter is that you should never give up. Don't write books for people. Write books for yourself and write something that you enjoy and I can assure you that if you really put your heart into it then one day your book is going to be a masterpiece. Oh, also, try updating daily because I think that makes you less lazy and give a success to work. At least, that's what worked for me when I first writing because I am really lazy. So, I literally have to push myself to write everyday but once I have that habit it helps me to gain success.

10 if you could hang out with your favorite celeb for a day, who would you choose and what would you do?

To be honest, I am not a movie person so I don't have any favorite celebrities.But, I do watch dramas and TV shows from multiple countries, like Hollywood,South Asian TV shoes, East Asian TV shows and even Turkish shows so it is noteven going to an English actor I guess. But, I do like Indiana Evans and she isan Australian celebrity. I like her acting and I think she is a great songwriter. As for what to do if I hang out with her, I would have probably go tofairs. Like carnival or just regular kids fair and ride a bunch of rides withher and eat cotton candies and hot dogs. I would take a lot of pictures whichare weird and funny with her. Maybe when we go home I would ask her if we couldbe friends and keep in touch. I guess, that's about it.

Request time:

I have wrote many books and one of those book is Agent Bride. This is available in Wattpad (unedited) and is slowly updating in dreame.ca (edited). This book is about a modern Muslim love story where a woman is a secret agent and serving the country. She gets a mission and to complete her mission, she disguised herself to go to a school as a student where she meet her teacher who happens to be turn out to be the guy who her parents choose to get her married with. It is a funny, adventurous, and a cute sweet romance type of book which also teaches about life of a Modern Muslim couple and explores the dark side of the word. I think it is a great book to read for young readers who are looking for comedy thrillers with a spark of romance. So, please do check it out.
