Elliott Brake
Elliott Brake asked Alice Oseman:

When I have ideas that I genuinely think is good I start writing with a shadow of what I want the overall product to be. However, after getting 15-20 pages in I find it almost impossible to write anymore. Any tips on how to avoid or skip this? Thanks, xx

Fireheart
Fireheart asked Alice Oseman:

I am an introvert and don't know many people. I want to be published but am afraid that as not many people know me, my book wont sell as word would not spread around. This factor is the only thing keeping me away from getting published. Do you have any tips on this topic or about how your book might get the fame it deserves because your books and Heartstopper are selling like crazy...???
