INTERVIEW WITH: iletomichelle  :)

Me: What's behind your username?

iletomichelle: It's my surname and given name combined. 😀

Me: What country are you from?

iletomichelle: Philippines! 😀

Me: [Awesome! Filipinos unite! LOL.] Why did you join Wattpad?

iletomichelle: At first, I just want to read, -- I'm kinda a bookworm, I'd read hundreds of books especially romance novels -- then, my friends told me to try writing. And since I am obidient to them, that's why I have one book published now. Hahaha.

Me: What was it like when you first started writing?

iletomichelle: At first, it was fun but at the same time it's hard. I find it hard to look for the names that will fit my characters. Starting with your own story is exciting and terrifying. Terrified that I may not make it through and excited to share my story here in Wattpad.

When I published my first few chapters, the reads were so low that I almost didn't wanna continue writing. But when someone added it in their reading list, it excited me. Knowing that someone else was reading my work gave me the courage to continue.

Me: Who is your favorite author here on Wattpad?

iletomichelle: Well, for my favorite author, they are @isabelleronin and @sweetdreamer33.

Me: Where do you get your ideas from?

iletomichelle: It will just pop out in my head. I don't know, sometimes it's shocking to realize that I've written two whole chapters in one sitting.

Me: How do you deal with Writer's Block?

iletomichelle: I will take a rest. Watch movies that can inspire me, or read more books. Then, I'll continue when I feel better.

Me: [Good idea. :) ] What was your most embarrassing moment ever?

iletomichelle: It was when I went out of the cinema and then I bump into my ex-boyfriend and his girlfriend, and I was wearing the same dress with hers. I was so awkward and embarrassed at the same time. I wanted the ground to open and swallow me up right away.

Me: [Wow. That must be really awkward.] Are there any stories that you're working on that aren't yet published? If so, can you please tell us a little about it?

iletomichelle: My works are all published. 😀

bejeweledMe: Is there anything you would like to add? Any advice or other things you would like to share to our fellow Wattpaders here?

iletomichelle: Hello fellow Wattpaders, if you are reading this and have the time, please do check out my story. It's called "Red Lilac". It's about the two lovers who meet again after five years.

And for those aspiring writers like me, please keep on writing and one day, you'll wake up in a bed of fame.

Thank you for this wonderful experience @bejeweledMe.
