Pen Name: Destiny Diess

Username: beautifullybrutal

Is your pen name your legal name? If no, then how did you make up one?

For my paranormal writing, my pen name is my real name. However, when I write pure erotica, I use a pen name.

How many books have you published till date?

On Wattpad, I have three completed books including The Marking, The Betrayal, and Next-Door Incubus.

What are your future projects?

I'm working on prequels about the seven sins. Eventually, I hope to create a series based in Hell about these seven characters. Also, I've been thinking about writing two mafia romances (bxg and gxg).

What is writing to you?

Writing is creating a world and a story that I can share with other people.

Is being an author, your long time dream or a hidden passion you found out later?

I love writing paranormal/romance. I find it really interesting to dive into a world that isn't my own and to experience ideas and scenes that *maybe* could never happen in real life.

What genre books you like to work on?

If we challenge you to write a book of another genre we suggest, then would you take it up?

I would definitely try it out, but I'm not sure it would be that great. I've tried to write short stories in my university classes without using paranormal events/characters and it was super hard. I just couldn't find much passion in it.

Then we would like to read a Paranormal-Historic genre book from you soon.

Writing is a reality that paints a beautiful fantasy. What do you think are the charms of writing fiction/non fictional books?

For fiction, you get to create a whole new world. This is your world. You write so others can explore this crazy place that you fabricated in your brain. I think that's pretty beautiful.

Who are your favorite authors in and out of wattpad?

Shout out to steamyhot and ancientt.

Name few of your close wattpad friends.

One of my close Wattpad friends is miameade. She writes YA werewolf stories that are AMAZING.

What is your favorite series you have recently watched or read?

I just finished Game of Thrones, which I loved because there was so much betrayal - and if you're a fan of my work you know how much I love betrayal. The 100 is also a great series.

Who is your favorite actor/actress?

I don't have any specific actors/actresses that are my favorite; however, there are some actors/actresses that are so good I have to love them - like Millie Bobby Brown.

Who is your favorite Villain you couldn't help but love?

The Joker from Batman.

What are your hobbies other than writing and reading?

I love exercising, especially lifting weights. Also, I don't participate in this now, but I am super into combat sports like judo, jiu jitsu, and wrestling.

What are your hidden talents?

I don't really have any hidden talents.

Who is your first celebrity crush?

I honestly don't remember who my first celebrity crush was, but I remember that I was OBSESSED with Leland from Dog the Bounty Hunter for YEARS. I thought he was the most attractive guy in the world.

What is the most embarrassing situation that you have ever been through?

I've been in a lot of embarrassing situations in my life. When I was in middle school, I had a friend over for a pool party at my house. We were having fun jumping in the pool and splashing around. When my dad came out to watch us, he asked if we wanted him to throw us into the pool which was something I always thought was super fun. When he threw me, my pants literally fell down and I mooned one of my really good friends. Being the insecure teenager I was, I was mortified, but now I look back on it and laugh.

One craziest thing you have ever done?

Only one thing really comes to mind... but I can't share it on here (sorry!)

There are many authors who just started their journey and many readers who want to write but have no courage to do so. Please give them a tip and a word of encouragement.

It takes a lot of courage and trust to share your work with others. Just know that you don't have to share your work right away or at all. But take chances every now and then. Hit that publish button and see where your story leads you.

Last but not the least, have you ever dreamt of writing your own comic?

I have never dreamed of writing my own comic. I never really got into comics when I was younger, but I love the movies and spin-offs of comics - like The Arrow and The Flash.
