    WOW!! That is amazing that you’ve written, much more published, all those! And that one you’re working on sounds really cool!

    @mischievous-thwapling Thanks so much! 😀 I actually will now add that my previously mentioned book, False Awakening, is (as of today) now officially a bestseller. AHHH!!! So excited!!! 😀

    Your books sound SO cool! YOU sound SO cool!

    @wingiby-iggiby LOL! Thanks so much! ^-^

    Could you tell me how you managed to actually write those books and finish them? Because I am such a scatterbrain and do not finish a lot of things.

    Hahaha! I hear ya. I like to say that I make my own motivation rather than seeking it or just waiting for it to appear in the vastness of earth, LOL, by jotting down random words to replace later if I’m stuck on the Blank Page Syndrome or simply taking a breath of fresh air outside and then coming back in; y’know, fun stuff like that. 😀

    I’ve been working on mine for like four years. Did you self-publish or find a publishing site? How long did you work on your first novel? What marketing strategies have you used? What was your working strategy?

    Nice! 😀

    1. I originally self-published, but my book is now republished. I am super excited! 😀
    2. It took me about a year to work on False Awakening, but I later realized that wasn’t as long as most YA books are. My third book is longer, LOL.
    3. I’ve used plenty of different marketing strategies (a lot of them including the #WritingCommunity of Twitter which are super supportive), plus the marketing of my publisher and agent. 🙂
    4. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THE QUESTIONSSS

    I was looking through your character’s profile and she has a rapier! Did you know a good rapier blade can bend 180 degrees in either side!?! Do you know any sword positionings or techniques? How do you do that thingy where your reply pops up with what i said earlier because i am not tech-savvy 😛

    1. THAT’S SO COOOOL!!! I did not know that, actually. That’s awesome! 😀
    2. A few just from studying (like fencing, because I have two fencers in my book), but I don’t really know many sword techniques or positions for practical use, haha. I want to learn, though; everything sword-related is awesome!!! <3
    3. It’s that button next to “REPLY” that says “QUOTE.” Just click that and it pops up your whole reply! I like to copy and paste to break ’em up into pieces like I did with yours, haha.

    Hopefully that answered all your questions! Thanks so much! 🙂
