Summary: Bella Swan's mother, Renee, works for a dangerous corporation; the Volturi. After a mysterious information leak within the company, Renee convinces her daughter to move in with her father in Forks. Bella must keep her identity a secret until her mother's company can restore order. An unusual encounter with a green-eyed stranger leaves her more confused than ever and soon he's all she thinks about. Little does she know that the very friends Bella is so hesitant to make are the very friends that have the most ties with her. As she goes along she finds the keeping her identity a secret from the ones she loves is easier said than done.
1. How did you come up with the idea of your story?
It came up rather suddenly, actually. I had a minor case of Writer’s Block one night, so I just sat down and wrote whatever came to mind. About 15 minutes later, I had the Prologue written and I actually liked what I wrote. From there, it just came together.
2. What is the biggest struggle you have with writing your story?
Hmm… I would have to say, writing what you have in mind and having it be the way you want it. Sometimes the words don’t seem to come out right or a certain scene just doesn’t have that emotion you want it to have. It’s super frustrating.
3. Is there a particular character in your story that you identify with the most?
There’s no particular character I identify with the most, oddly enough. I can relate with all of them, though, in one way or another. Whether it’s Bella with her independence or Edward with his protective streak, even energetic little Alice.
4. Is the story all planned out or is it write as you go?
It’s a little bit of both. I usually try to outline each chapter before I start writing it so I don’t get lost, but I usually end up improvising anyway. The ending, though, I have all planned out. It’s the middle part that I’m not too sure about. I know where I want it to go, but the characters sometimes like to write themselves into situations. *laughs*
5. Do you have a particular process when it comes to your writing? Mood? Specific Environment? What do you do to get in the writing mood?
Ahh, now that’s a million dollar question right there. The simplest answer to that is: I just write. Music certainly helps. On certain occasions when I really can’t write anything, I start cleaning and voila!
6. Have you got any other projects going on? Any planned for the future?
I seem to have a lot of things going on, it seems, and at the risk of making this super long I will cut it short. I am currently working on my story, Identity, and some new stuff too. I can’t say too much just yet, but I guess I can say the titles. My two most important projects underway, besides Identity, are Amor Gitano (Gypsy Love) and Always Ours, which I’m co-writing with a good friend of mines (ohmyitsv). As for future projects, well, I can certainly say that something will come up.
7. Are you out of the closet with your Twilight love? Or do your RL friends and family know about it?
Yes and no to that. My whole family and friends know I love Twilight, and all of them do too, particularly the female side. Do they know I write fan fiction? No. I don’t know if I could have them read my stuff, it’s weird.
8. Do any FF authors inspire you?
Oh, sure! There quite a lot of FF authors that inspire me. I think too many to name them all personally, but there are a couple that inspire me on a day-to-day basis. There is SydneyAlice, TwilightCakes, katmom (Guardingkatmom on Twitter), Shirley007 (Shirley_007 on Twitter), Ohmyitsv, SorchaCullen and my little buddy, Antevorte.
9. What is your FanFic Pet peeve?
Well, there is one particular FanFic Pet peeve that really gets me. When people have this amazing plotline and they really get you hooked, but the grammar and stuff is … um … less than okay. I mean, I don’t really care if it’s perfect or anything, but I don’t want to think that a 6 year old wrote it. No offense.
10. Do you have other writing experience besides fan fiction?
Yeah. I started writing since I was 11 years old, which was about 9 years ago. I started out writing Poetry and original fiction stories. I still write it, but FanFiction has taken up most of my life and I’m quite proud of that. All my other non-fan fiction projects are hidden away in a folder on my desktop. I’m too shy to show anyone, except a couple of people and even then.
11. Shout out to your betas.
Ah, yes, my betas! First of, there’s kejce who is just an amazing beta. Then there’s ohmyitsv who is just amazing as well. There’s also Shirley007 and SorchaCullen who are incredible as well.
12. Any fic recs? (please include links & no more than 3)
Only 3? Okay, okay. Hmm…
1. Fairytale by Twilight Cakes (Rated M)
2. Bella Hale by JulesSC (Rated T)
3. Everlong by Sydney Alice (Rated M)
13. Anything else you want to add?
Nothing much except … what?! Me, author spotlight? Wow! Um, I believe that’s it. I just had to get that out. Phew!
