Simi Sunny There's an envelope icon on the right hand corner
Simi Sunny Hmm interesting question. I think I have a couple (or maybe two. I'm not sure). But the interesting writer I know is Viola Carr who is also an author.
Simi Sunny Sure :)

But I do have some standards that I want to be clear about. I don't want to do review for review, unless it piques my interest. I've been bugged by so many people, whom I barely know them, for a review. And I'm unable to promote one's book, unless I'm good friend with him or her. I'm just putting it out there, that's all.

Feel free to ask anything about me or about my work, though. I'm sure we're at good terms.
Simi Sunny I don't think I ever did a poetry review. I mean, I comment on poems that are posted on Goodreads poetry group and twitter.
Simi Sunny "I was following the moon that was guiding me to home, since my friends left me alone in the dark forest. I gasped at the sight that was gut wrenching and horrifying: a rotting corpse."
Simi Sunny I would say London. Even though it's not a fictional place, it always appear in fictional books that I have read. What I would do is go shopping and visit museums. Plus, a friend of mine is there, so I really want to see him.
Simi Sunny I don't think there's symbolism for the pendant, actually. I mean, I did that, because I wear pendants almost every day. So basically, I put something that's me into my book. If you read the whole story, including my Author's Note, few of my personal experiences are in there. :)
Simi Sunny Right now, I'm currently reading The Mortal Instruments series so that will keep me reading over the summer. And if I do finish all the books before summer's over, I will read the infernal devices series next.
Simi Sunny I got inspired to write when I had the this first story that had popped into my head. I mean it was during that time when I was feeling depressed. So I need to get my feelings, and I did by writing it out in a different way. It was something that I enjoyed and I definitely want to keep doing that to share it with everyone.
Simi Sunny I got an idea from a music video, two or three years ago. And then, it turned into a dream. So I thought, "Why not create something that hadninspired me and write it out to the world?"
Simi Sunny Well few of my personal issues are in the book. So my mystery in my own life is trying to overcome my past and my fears
Simi Sunny My advice for aspiring writers is that you have to keep on writing to get better. In fact, maybe read books from other authors so that it can help you improve on writing.
Simi Sunny The best thing about being a writer is that you get to share your imagination to everyone, making it come to life. That's what I like about the most.
Simi Sunny I deal it by taking a break until I get an idea. I always read books or do something productive to get an idea. It may take long, or maybe it won't. But that's how I deal with writer's block.
