Meet The Authors Showcase Edition #2 (2 of 3)

A showcase with @PenWriter16, author of Mind reader

1 what inspired the idea of your story? 

Mind Reader was inspired by this story idea I had for a while about a girl having a third eye. Not a literal eye but in a spiritual sense. It let her do many supernatural things like read minds and see into the nearest future.

2 what was something you struggled with for your story ?

I never really struggled with writing my story. I enjoyed writing it actually. The only thing I found troubling was trying to write a lot of ideas into a chapter.

 3 what has been the overall response to your story from your readers?

I haven't had any negative responses except grammar correction and some constructive criticism. Overall, everyone has been very positive and neutral.

 4 what did you enjoy writing most of your story? 

I enjoyed writing the beginning. Creating a story foundation for my characters is what I liked most. Solidify their positions as actual people in a story.

5 is your story a stand alone novel or a piece of a series?

Mind Reader is not a standalone story but it's not part of a series. I'm considering a short story sequel in Lily's point of view.

 6 what's a piece of advice you would provide to another writer, when it comes to focusing on their story?

I'd advice them to map out their ideas, the whole setting and plot so everything corresponds and there's no confusion or anything. Like characters names. Your main character can't be Melissa in Chapter 1 and Penelope in Chapter 6.

 7 does your main character share any similarities to yourself?

My character and I share some similarities mainly human emotions. I molded my character into a human like me.

 8 what's something you believe would draw in new readers? 

I'm not sure it's my description because I've been told it's very vague but I'm working on it. I think maybe my cover or even the title.

9 do you have any future projects?

I do. I have a whole load of stories to write after Mind Reader.
