adoringrucas is an account home to some amazing 'Girl Meets World' Fanfiction including the likes of 'Hypnotic' which has 320k reads. It was amazing to interview them and this is what they had to say!

Why did you start writing on Wattpad?

I actually started writing on Wattpad back in 2014, I didn't know how it really worked at the time but I wrote a story about this YouTuber and this dancer that I deleted far long ago. But then I came up with this idea and storyline for Hypnotic, I just didn't have characters set up for it at the time. And then I got involved in the Girl Meets World fandom, and the story kind of evolved from there because I'm a huge sucker for ships on shows.

How did it feel to hit 100k for the first time?

Honestly when it happened, it was so unfathomable for me. I never in a million years thought that I would even get past 10k. So when I did, I was overjoyed. I was so happy and grateful.

Where do you get your ideas from?

I get a lot of my ideas from quotes, and different couples on other tv shows, at least for Hypnotic I did. Now, I still take lots of inspiration from quotes, but also things that have happened to the ship/couple that I'm writing for and I try to add that into the story somehow, and also music and songs help me. Also watching those amazingly edited videos of couples from movies or tv shows on YouTube, helps me a lot.

What keeps you motivated to keep on writing?

I feel like I'm not really eligible to answer this question hahah because it's very hard for me to stay motivated at times to write. But that's normal. I think that, regret is one of those things as odd as that might sound, because, I don't ever want to regret not writing that or doing this. I'm one of those people who if I don't I will constantly think about it if it means that much to me. But also if you don't stay motivated 100% of the day it's okay, it happens to all of us. I think that the people that support me on here, my friends, help me to stay motivated all the time.

What's your proudest moment on Wattpad?

I think when I finished Hypnotic, and published that last chapter. I felt so proud of myself for finishing that whole book, and I was so happy about it. I remember the exact day clear as the sky, that I published the last chapter. I think that was my proudest moment.

What's one thing you wish your followers knew about you?

That I am just human, and I struggle like everyone else and that they aren't alone. Also, that I love pizza. And food in general. Haha

And finally, what advice would you give to a new writer on Wattpad?

Never give up. I know at times, it will become extremely stressful, like maximum, but if you truly have a passion and heart for what you are writing then don't give up. Don't worry about the reads, followers, or votes you have. At the end of day, you're writing for yourself and nobody else, so just keep on pushing because I promise you will not regret it later!
