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

How many books have you published till date?

- I've published probably about 15-18 books total, but I've only ever kept the current ones that are on my profile rn

What are your future projects?

- I'm currently planning on republishing a story that I removed a while ago based on a 1001 nights retelling, and also working on a story that focuses on a soft boy kinda romance (:

What is writing to you?

- Writing is a way for me to relax, and forget about the things that might be making me upset or stressed. Whenever I need some time to myself, I start writing, even if it's things I'm not publishing

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

- A hidden passion, actually. I've always loved reading but I never thought I'd enjoy writing so much as I do now

What genre books you like to work on?

- Romance, teen fiction, and humor (usually all three in one book haha)

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

- Not sure! I'd have to see what the genre is first haha

Then we would like to try for a Paranomal Teen Romedy genre 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?

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

- Don't be afraid to write with your own voice!! I know that there are trends that come and go, but do what you enjoy writing about, not what people like reading about xx

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

- Nope
