Author's Note - Q&A
Yes, that's right, your favorite author is back!
I'm just kidding, I'm not even my own favorite author so anyway, I'm here to reveal a little about the SEQUELS and answer the good questions I was asked on the last chapter, Author's Note and in my messages.
Anywhore, let's get to it.
I figured you all wanted to hear more about the sequels before listening to anything about me, since the books are definitely what you're here for (hence this being Wattpad and not Instagram) so nonetheless, here we are.
I will put up another chapter that has the description, a little bit of the first chapter and the cover there as well just so you guys know what you're signing up for :)
I know the aesthetic for the Wolf Pack Series all matches (honestly, I think it's dope) but this series won't be like that because every book will be very different, with different problems and such but still, I think I did good.
One is a spin-off and one is a genuine, next generation, sequel. All of them can be read as stand alones.
User Series:
Addict In Black - 1
(Spin Off) Stuck Between The Pages - 2
(Next Gen) Pandemonium - 3
(Sequel) Anomalies - 4
Anomalies is finished and is now categorized under His Star Series instead of User Series because it had a sequel too! And is its own little book series.
Anomalies - 1
Regularities - 2
Stuck Between the Pages is now in the Nerd vs Jock Series, and is just a series of books from a cast of characters revolving one time line and one school, I don't even know how many books there will be in it because I love the concept so much.
Stuck Between the Pages - 1
Between the Locker Walls - 2
Stuck Between The Pages
Featuring Keagan and Robin and how they came to be the Nerd and the Dummy golden humor and adorable couple that you know.
There will be deep shit, many problems but it's more focused on normal teenager shit, actual problems most people have instead of taboo things like addiction but I think it's still a good read.
Excerpts:
-----
Birdie laughs loudly, head tilted back and clutching at herself. But while her eyes are gleaming with amusement I can't help but to let my heart drop heavily in my chest.
It's not a joke, I think. I love you.
-----
Nudging her up at the elbow, I grin when she finally stands. "Come on, Four-Eyes, we need to get a move on."
"Whatever, Jock-Strap," Robin sighs, giving me a look. "I didn't know your time was so important to you."
"Keep up Birdie, time isn't real."
-----
It will be from Keagan's POV with a bit of Robin and one (1) of Micah's thrown in. This book is full of self-discovery, sacrifice, funny bickering and really cute fluff moments.
Any theories about this book so far // questions from what you already know?
Pandemonium [GXG]
Featuring Nemesis Rex (one of AJ and Micah's daughters) and her love interest, Malakaia Nash. And, Nemy's dogs, Deus and Cultor.
It is written in the same style as Addict In Black, meaning slow- burn, angst and deep shit thrown in everywhere.
Excerpt:
------
Being unexpectedly cornered by Kaia, I'm frozen wide eyed.
Grabbing my chin, she tilts my head up to meet her red-brown eyes, gaze intense as her body moves forward to brush against mine -giving off just enough pressure to intimidate me and make my body go all fuzzy and hot at the same time.
Leaning in close, so close I can feel her breath on my ear, she gives me a lethal smirk.
"Do you have any idea how much you infuriate me?"
------
It will be from Nemesis's POV, it will include her parents, siblings , uncles, aunts, her school, how she paints and her struggles with depression. It obviously will focus really heavily on just her, instead of her entire family but I have adorable Christmas scenes planned and it includes this:
------
For my family around the holidays, instead of kissing under a mistletoe, we fight under a mistletoe -as one year my Uncle Jemmy tried to kiss my mama, and Papa didn't take that too well.
So it's no surprise that the mistletoes are already up a week before Christmas, which is right when people start coming to my parent's house to celebrate together.
This year, I keep bumping into Atlas so I've declared him my Mistlefoe. Someone's Mistlefoe is the only one they're actually allowed to full out fight if they end up under the mistletoe together. Both sets of twins always fight each other, but usually TJ and Atlas end up fighting and I'm left to pick off my cousins one by one.
That ends with, "Someone's halls are gonna get decked."
------

Anomalies [BXB]
Featuring Castor Rex (one of AJ and Micah's sons) and his love interest, Jasper Red from my sister's book, Bar Red's Redemption.
There will be deep shit, many problems because of his disability and their college life but mostly, it's just two guys with a crush being adorable little shits together.
Excerpts:
------
As a private person, someone who doesn't share myself with others, I can say that learning how to interact with others is difficult. It's like baking, almost, you have to mix the right ingredients together, and if you add the wrong ones things can taste hideous even if they look good.
It's a lot like our words.
But I've mastered how to tell someone just a little about myself but doing it in a way that makes the person in front of me think they know a lot.
Jazz, somehow, sees through this every fucking time and it's absolutely infuriating.
He's never satisfied with just a little of me, with my hidden truth, and it's the most annoying thing I've ever experienced.
------
"I am the textbook definition of in love with you."
------
This book is something new I'm trying because I feel like I'm always writing really basic stuff without pushing myself so this is being made one chapter at a time. I'm writing one chapter of this book, Anomalies Behind Dorm Doors, in Castor's POV and my sister is taking that and changing it to a chapter of her book, Jazz Red's Anomaly, from 3rd person/Jazz's POV. Then, she does the next chapter and I have to change it. It will include his school life, lots of in his dorm with his roommate scenes, cooking things, football things and bits of his family life as well.
Warning: Castor has Tourette's. His tics will be present throughout the entire book and their will be a theme of different aspects of mental health and depression. If you won't be able to deal with that or find it annoying, please keep any comments to yourself.
And also there's hella gay shit????
------
If you're not okay with even the concept of gay shit and it offends you than DON'T FUCKING READ THESE BECAUSE THIS IS A LGBTQ+ SAFE SPACE AND YOUR COMMENTS WILL BE DELETED AND YOU'LL BE MUTED SO FUCK OFF!!!!! So you've been warned.
I know it shows in my work, but I support everyone as long as what they believe doesn't harm someone else (sexism, racism, homophobia,) so please, you're welcomed here!
I'm bi/lesbian, my family is full of lgbtq+ (in that I include ace/aro because they ARE valid) people, people with depression and autism and learning disorders that have been abused and bullied so we don't discriminate so if you do get the FUCK off my page, you're not welcomed here.
And if you are lgbtq+ or questioning then hello my babes!
That's the end of my spiel about those book, of which I'm excited to write and publish, but onto the questions :D
1. How old are you?
16, 17 in 5 months, and I was 12 when I started writing, The Devil is my first book.
2. Do you want to be a professional writer?
Actually, that would be amazing. I think that it's a possibility but I plan to be a vet and I've never actually considered being published and I don't know if I have what it takes to get published, if you know what I mean. I've sold my artwork before while I was still in real school, so I think I'm going to do more commissions for a while but I don't know if I can be published.
That would be really cool though, so I hope.
3. What made you want to portray addiction in this way?
I always knew that Micah was going to be an addict, because I've seen a few stories where people like him are addicts and suffer and still get the girl but then I realized while I was writing the first chapter that this should be a book that I not only want to write, but a book that I needed to read.
So instead of focusing on Micah's addiction, I made AJ an addict too because I've never heard of a person like her being one and I've never seen it be done before. People can't just be told what a drug smells like or the rush, they need to know what it feels like to lose yourself and going through addiction and how scared it is to change and realize what you've done.
Personally, I think I showed them that.
I had to pick normal things- -fires- -and change it into a heartbreaking addiction that someone who's never done drugs could instantly understand.
The reason I wanted to do this is because both my dad and my mom (not my bio) were both drug addicts and alcoholics but they got sober together and that really inspired me. They've read books about addiction but I was talking with my mom about it one day and she said they all read like not-to-do manuals and describe people drowning.
So I decided to write this book.
Which is a little ironic because I'm too embarrassed about it to tell my parents that I even wrote it and then let them read it so...
4. Why isn't Jem like his description?
Because the stereotypical short and goofy, white, blond-haired apple-green-eyed funny, male best friend who's kinda gay is a great read but not always realistic and to be a best friend to someone like AJ takes guts and someone who knows when to shut up and watch a horror movie but also knows when to ask the right questions and make mango smoothies.
Also, confusing people is fun and I'm well aware that my 6'3 black-haired hazel-eyed sunshine child gives off high-key short golden lab vibes.
5. Why didn't you show Micah ending the connection with his parent or get them arrested too?
Because, and I hate to say this, but they didn't actually do anything 'technically' illegal. Micah's an adult, so they're helping him and it was his decision to do drugs. They neglected him, but they didn't hit him and when you're rich you can get away with a lot more than just neglect. I can't do something like make them get arrested or have them suddenly lash out in front of everyone and get arrested/do something incredible stupid or incriminating because they're smarter than that and rich enough to get away with it.
6. Is everything AJ says about the mangoes true?
Yes, I do my research and they're actually amazing fruit.
Sucks I hate them and how they taste and eurgh THEY'RE SQUISHY AND WEIRD AND ASKJFSKDFJKSDJF I CAN'T CONSUME THEM I'M SORRY
7. Do you do research or are you just making it all up?
I have researched everything from addiction symptoms, how to do drugs to court etiquette and pregnancy symptoms. So for the technically stuff, yes I research it because I'm not born with that knowledge and I will mess something up if I free-style it.
But for a lot of the emotional stuff and description about addiction/depression, that's all out my brain because I have emotions but I also don't know what the fuck I'm doing but since all of you have emotions too, when you're reading you don't know that.
8. What chapters are Micah's POV from?
Micah's
Chapter 25: Deity
Chapter 36: 5-Shots
Chapter 54: Adjectives
(I feel like I'm forgetting one?)
Jem's
Chapter 43: Wrong
9. What chapters are Bar Red's character's in?
AIB
Chapter 31: Bear
Chapter 37: Foolish-Wise
Chapter 38: Shipwreck
BRR Extra
Chapter 3: b e a c h
10. About me?
I'm an Aries and have an Aquarius moon.
Favorite color is pastel orange.
Favorite animal is fox.
I'm cursed to be 5'2 and have lost $40 in bet money over it. (Thanks, Fucknugget)
I'm bi/lesbian, don't really know yet which is weird because you'd think I would.
My favorite drink is lemonade/hot chocolate and my favorite food is carrots.
I'm definitely a nerd, yikes.
Favorite scent is citrus.
I have a list, and if something isn't on the list, I don't give a single fuck about it.
Favorite holiday is Halloween.
I hate my birthday (which falls on Easter some years) and Christmas.
11. Why do you write like you do?
Uh????? I write because my mind yells at me and day dreams so I write out the worlds in my head once something in the real world inspires me.
Personally, I don't think I'm a good writer but I do think I have very much improved since my first book (seriously the difference in quality from The Devil to Addict In Black is drastic) so I'm proud of myself for that.
12. Something you should know
Words I cannot spell without autocorrect/speech to text include: Tongue, epitome, government, heroin, jalapeño, hippopotamus, sausage and sometimes, ring.
Words I can spell for whatever fucking reason: Defenestrate, pandemonium, serendipity, nudiustertian, idiosyncratic, bologna, abiogenesis, and kairosclerosis.
So yes, I'm aware I'm a mess but if you're reading this right now it means you've gotten through 64 chapters of pure me-ness which means you've survived something incredible and also I apologize for my crackheadness.
Anyways, this time the next thing you'll see is the sequel information and tidbits so, see you then.
