Pen Name: Maddie May

Username: Maddie_May01

Is your pen name your legal name? If no, then how did you make up one?

My pen name is my childhood nick name and it has always stuck with me, holding a lot of sentimental value.

I have published four books on Wattpad and have a fifth in progress called The Killer's Weakness.

What are your future projects?

My future project is making a series out of the family from The Killer's Weakness.

What is writing to you?

Writing is an escape. It sounds so cliche but it's the truth. To me, and to a lot of people I know, life is stressful and the world is filled with this reality that shrinks us down and makes us feel so stuck in it all. Writing is a getaway to another world where we can think and dream of all the possibilities.

Is being an author, your long time dream or a hidden passion you found out later?

Being an author started as a passion of mine. Though, I never thought it would grow into being a possible career later on. But I do consider it a possibility to blossom into something more than just a passionate hobby.

What genre books you like to work on?

I work on mainly Romantic fiction. The dreamy, twists and turns of the romantic world are fascinating to me because romance can go into any genre of book. The possibilities are endless with it.

If we challenge you to write a book of another genre we suggest, then would you take it up?

If I were challenged to write another genre, I would be intrigued to see how I could spin a story in that genre.

Then we would love to read an Adventurous book from you soon.

Writing is a reality that paints a beautiful fantasy. What do you think are the charms of writing fiction/non fictional books?

The charms about writing fiction are that you can build a whole alternate reality but it can go to the extreme of being something no one can imagine, or as simple as something one of the readers may have even experienced in their real life.

Who are your favorite authors in and out of wattpad?

Midika on Wattpad is absolutely astounding. Anna Todd and Natasha Preston, both started on Wattpad, have such thrilling books with plots that keep me trapped in the pages. Cassandra Clare fails to disappoint me with a book as well.

Name few of your close wattpad friends.

What are your hobbies other than writing and reading?

Other than writing and reading, I love working out, hanging out with my friends, shopping, and staying home on rainy days to watch movies.

What are your hidden talents?

My hidden talent is that I can whistle honestly any song.

Who is your first celebrity crush?

My first celebrity crush was Dylan Sprouse.

What is the most embarrassing situation that you have ever been through?

The most embarrassing situation I have ever been in is when I was dressing a mannequin at the retail store I work at, I greeted a customer right as I pulled the arm off and the arm proceeded to hit me in the eyebrow. Thankfully the customer and I just laughed it off, but I will always be cautious around those mannequins.

One craziest thing you have ever done?

The craziest thing I've ever done is sneak out onto the beach at night. Let's just say running from the cops in bare feet and in the sand is not the easiest thing to do...

There are many authors who just started their journey and many readers who want to write but has no courage to do so. Please give them a tip and a word of encouragement.

My tip is to always stay confident. Your book is your interests, your thoughts, your time and effort all written into your own piece of art. Embrace it and there will be people who find your story intriguing.

Last but not the least, have you ever dreamt of writing your own comic?

My brother is a graphic arts major and writing a comic would be so cool to collaborate with him on.
