Okay you guys asked and here are the answers. Thank you for participating and sending in your very thought provoking questions.
Q: What is your daily routine?
A: My daily routine is really so unhealthy lol. I have a mild form of insomnia so I stay up most nights until 2:30 sometimes until 3 in the morning, and since Ramadan it got even worse to where now I sleep at 7 in the morning (I'm slowly weaning myself off of this schedule) I sleep until noon, and I wake up and make brunch, check my messages and interact with my family. Around 3pm I do my house chores which lasts until 6:30pm (I cook and clean in the same block of time in one go) then I get online to do some reading. I usually use this time to connect with my friends and family in America because it's the most suitable time for both of our timezones. On the days that I work I try to go to bed early (1am lol) and I do all the lesson planning and I go and I teach all the kids English, then I come home. All of my writing I do late at night, from 9:30 until 12. Wow all of that looks like a lot but I really just have a bunch of free time XD
Q: How far would you go to score a one on one fan meet with Yoongi?
A: Oh man what I wouldn't give to have that, I'd really love that, it would be a dream come true. But in all honesty, I wouldn't actually go that far in real life. If it proved to be too hard, I'd take it as a sign that I'm not supposed to get one. And too, my mom would take my head off so yeah XD But a girl can dream.
Q: What are your fears? What are the good and bad aspects of your character and what would you like to change?
A: My fears are either myself or my family being abducted or kidnapped and never seeing or hearing from them again. This fear grips my heart very hard and I struggle with anxiety over it (this is also due to some real life experiences in regards to this) I also am afraid of losing my faith sometimes, because I find that the things I desire to do in life contradicts my morals, and it's an uphill battle but I fight it to the best of my ability every day. As for the good parts of my character I think I'm pretty honest with people, and solid in what I believe in. And the bad parts that I'd like to change is that I'd like to be less stubborn and take the lessons the people in my life have to offer me with less resistance and more humility, because they really have useful things to say, I just be too stubborn to accept it.
I just spilled my guts on these questions XD shout out to the person who asked me these deep questions. I hope you liked my answers :)
Let's keep going...
Q:How do you come up with ideas for writing your stories. In other words, what insp(f)ires you?
A: I really loved this question, especially the phrasing. I can say that I've always had a really big imagination, and ideas and scenarios are always floating around in my head. I spend a lot of time daydreaming, which is a habit I've had since I was a child. I have made my own set of characters and constantly daydream about their lives. I've been daydreaming about the same characters since I was 13 which is about 10 years now. I just can't seem to shake them lol. But the thing that inspires me is that I feel like the stories that I envision should be shared, that the greatest stories my mind can come up with should be shared with the world because I believe there is at least one person who can look at my world and go, hey that's cool, I've thought of something like that too. So I feel compelled to write the stories out.
Q: What really inspired you to write this story?
A: This question has been the most thought provoking and I'm really glad it was asked. To be completely honest, the idea of this fanfic came to me at a time of really low motivation. I had started a high fantasy series some time last year, and at the beginning I was gun ho about it, but the further I got into the story the more dissatisfied I became at the way it turned out, and I ended up really hating the story. I had also been blogging at the time, and I was so disappointed in the way the high fantasy story was turning out that I also stopped writing stories for my blog even. I fell into a sort of despondency about my writing career (what little I had) and stopped writing altogether. Then one day I decided that I'd make a new blog, this one centered around my family and that I'd write stories about myself and the people in my actual life. I was going to make a blog dedicated to these fictional stories based on the real us, had even made the cartoon versions of everyone and was all set to go, but when I sat down to outline the kind of story I'd write, the fanfiction idea popped up (at this time I had just discovered BTS and was enthralled). I just sort of ran with it, and the more I outlined the more excited I got, and for the first time in a year I felt truly excited and motivated to write something. So I took advantage and I ran with it, I didn't question it, just went for it. And so that's why this book is so important to me, because its helped me get my creativity back. I may or may not make a career out of this story, I do plan to make it into a series because I really do love series. We'll see how high this story can fly. But there you have it, the real reason behind why I wrote the best work I've ever produced in my life until now.
