I got my idea of Clovers and Fire when I was twelve that I wrote in my notebook. It was one a two-page short story. However, I like the characters so much that I expanded into a novella at thirteen. I wanted it to be a children's book because I like fairytales and this would have been the type of book, I would have read and loved in my childhood.

It comes from an inner desire to write my own stories. I also love to read and I have a book blog, but sometimes I set aside reading when I get an idea to write. I like to write my stories based off of my passion for the genre of books that I like.

My advice is to get over the fear of being judge by author people and to listen to the encouragement of well other people as well as others. However, never let others compromise your vision. Ultimately, be pleased with yourself.

The best thing about being a writer is to delve into my imagination. With all the tragedies and dangers in the world, I like to escape into my own world.

I have an outline so I am never completely without direction. Sometimes, I still get stuck for a little while, but I relax, listen to music, and start using my creativity of getting around writer's block.
