Good Day Ma'am. I'm Karl from the Philippines. May I ask you some questions? What makes you love making or writing stories? What or who inspires you to write the story Chasing Sunsets? What is your goal in publishing your stories? Lastly, how does writing change or affect your outlook in life? Thank You Ma'am. It would be such an honor to recieve your respond. Thank You.

Hi Karl,
I have always loved writing. I'm not sure why. It's just the creative side of being me. Some people paint, some sing, some dance, some act.... I write. It's a joyful experience and allows me to be creative.
Chasing Sunsets...
The idea for this story came to me when I was on a plane heading west, and the sun was setting. As we flew west, we chased the sunset... which made it last the entire flight. I remember thinking about how life is this way... we 'chase' our whole lives towards our final sunset. Thus, the story was born!
Goals. Ah, I'm not very good at making and meeting goals. I write when I feel like it and sometimes I have to push myself to get back into it after I've neglected my writing for a long time.
How does writing change or affect my outlook on life? That's a very interesting question! I guess, because I like to write imaginative characters, it helps me to see life in a light-hearted way... OR maybe I write 'imaginatively' because I already see life this way. I'm not sure which! :)
Thanks for your questions!

Good day ma'am I'm Deniel Remollo, HS student from Cebu, Philippines. I recently read your story "Chasing Sunsets"—I was really amazed with your masterpiece. And I was wondering if what came up to your mind while writing that story? And what's your advice to those young writers who lacks confidence to publish their own story? It would be a privilege if an inspiring author like you would respond to me. Thank you.
