Ivojovi is our latest Block Party author. She lives in the beautiful Philippines. When she isn't creating prose, she is creating AMAZING desserts that you MUST see to believe!

How did you choose what to write for the Block Party Summer Edition? 

When I was asked to be featured on the upcoming Block Party, I just recently completed my first book. Then I thought that this was a nice opportunity to tell everyone what my next plans are. I will be writing about my next book in which I will feature a short synopsis or maybe a sneak preview of the first chapter. 

 What was the inspiration for your story? 

My first story, The Other CEO, was actually inspired by the movie The Amazing Spiderman 2. Norman Osborn was dying and his son, Harry Osborn, came back to work for his father. When Norman died, Harry took over his company. Norman had an assistant who was loyal to him. She now worked under Harry. They didn't have a love affair in that movie so I decided to make one. 

 Who are your favorite authors? 

I'm not really an avid reader but I started to enjoy reading when I joined Wattpad. I really enjoyed Ninya Tippet's work and the first book I read from her was Virtue and Vice. 

 What advice do you have for aspiring authors? 

Just enjoy what you're writing about. Don't think about the number of reads you will get or how many followers you will gain. It doesn't work overnight, you have to work hard for it. 

 What are your writing habits, or routine? 

 My mind usually works when everyone is asleep. I enjoy the silence while blasting my own music. 

How did you discover Wattpad? 

My classmate suggested Wattpad to me. We were having our internship away from our hometown and the only way to cope with boredom was from reading stories on Wattpad. 

 Please finish this sentence: When I'm not writing I'm:

I'm working at the hotel as a pastry chef. 

*Interviewers note: see byline above! YUM!!!

 And this one too: In an alternate universe, I'm doing this right now. 

I am probably not enjoying my job as a sales executive or I would have never discovered Wattpad. 

 What's you favorite thing about Wattpad? 

Discovering and reading books from a lot of talented authors. 

 What can we expect from you after the Block Party?   

 I would continue to write my second book and maybe meet new friends from the Block Party.
