Hey, I'm Nayanisha! But I simply go by Nisha. 

1 What is a good piece of advice for a newcomer? 

Hmm, as a newcomer on Wattpad, the main thing writers struggle with is gaining reads and votes. So, here's my advice for you: don't try to gain readers, try to make friends! Readers owe nothing to you. If they don't like your story, they won't bother reading it. But your friends would help you out with your first steps, give you the much-needed criticism to help you grow.

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

Yeah, all. The. Time. I'm ALWAYS surprised. And I always do a little weird shimmy dance when someone votes. Haha. 

 3 What is your favorite snack? 

I'm not sure if this classifies as a snack, but I can eat Nutella sandwiches all day, every day. What? A girl can have cravings. (Not THAT way tho~) 

4 What's your favorite holiday and why? 

Well, my favorite holidays are the summer holidays. They are the longest, first of all. And, I don't know, I just cherish the fact that I can laze around, sip on lemonades and not have to go to school in the sweltering heat. 

5 What inspired you to write?

 Honestly, I'm not sure when exactly I started writing, much less developed a penchant for it. I think my mom must have inspired me to some degree (she's a sort-of writer). All I know is that I really enjoy it. I LIVE for those momentary bursts of inspiration that makes my hand fly across the keyboard like a possessed witch ;p

 6 What is the best way to handle a bully?

Fortunately, I've never had any experience with bullies. The people I keep around me are mostly not-very-toxic. But there HAVE been times when I've come across people who make me want to slam my head on the wall. I've tried to educate them. It doesn't work. So, I mostly just cut off ties with them. 

Hell, I'm not very good at this, am I? Really, it depends. Sometimes, you must stand-up and fight. Other times, it's better to back down. 

 7 What's your favorite thing about Wattpad?

 My fav thing about Wattpad is its diversity! People of all colour, race, sexuality etc interact here and it's a BEAUTIFUL thing to witness. I've met some incredible people here and I don't know what I would do without them. 

 8 What is one wattpad goal? 

My one Wattpad goal is probably to win a Watty. But to do so, I really need to brush up on my writing skills. I don't think I'm there just yet. But I will. Someday. Hopefully lmao. 

9 Who is your favorite author?

 I have several! I'm mostly into fantasy, so I love authors like Rick Riordan, Cassandra Clare etc. But I also love John Green and Khaled Hosseini. My childhood fav was Enid Blyton! 

 10 What is your favorite movie?

Fav movies? Hmm, that's tough. From Hollywood, I'm definitely a sucker for anything Marvel. But I'm Indian, so I'm also into Bollywood. And one of my favs is Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara. (Good luck pronouncing that!) 

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

 Damn, that's a good question. I mean, it's no secret that I'm huge 1d stan. Sorry if you think that's lame but I don't really care. I'd love to hang out with Zayn Malik. Or Harry Styles. Or basically any of the boys. In fact, I'd do anything to just go to one of their concerts. But, aah, that's not happening. *sigh* 

request time

So, that was a little bit bout me. If you guys ever have the time, you should definitely consider giving a read to my latest fantasy-adventure book, Once Upon a Miracle. If you're into tropes like magical beings coming to life, going on a save-the-world-mission, daddy issues and adorable friendships, this story is right up your alley! It's fast-paced, has a lot of action and I bet you're going to fall in love with the MCs. Perfect for fans of Percy Jackson and Harry Potter. Thank you XD
