Deadly Love by pearly_joonie

1.) What made you decide to make a BTS Fanfiction?

I don't remember much to be honest, but I do remember that the first BTS fanfiction I had written was originally about the Dolan Twins. *cringes* I used to be a hardcore Dolan Twins fan as well as an ARMY, but I was a closeted ARMY and kpop stan for a pretty long time. I'm pretty sure I decided to change that one fanfiction from a Dolan Twins fanfic a BTS fanfic after people learned that I liked kpop.

2.) What was your inspiration from your storyline?

Huh, I'm not quite too sure on that. *laughs* My ideas just come really randomly to me, sometimes after watching a TV commercial or just laying in bed chilling. Both Insane and Deadly Love were thought about while I was in the shower and trying to reenact random action movie scenes.

3.) What message or word of encouragement you might like to share with to your fellow writers?

Don't ever quit! Sometimes stories don't play out as well in a book as it does in your head, but that's okay. Just sit back, relax, and think about some other ways the storyline could be changed to flow well. Or, just try to think about a completely new idea, but don't try to rush yourself in making a new story.

4.) Can you give a word of advice to your fellow writers in terms of writing a story? or publishing a book?

Stories are meant as entertainment to the people reading, so all of the chapters should flow very well together. Don't rush through the chapters to try and publish another one on time - if the readers are understanding, they should be fine with an amazing chapter coming out a few days later rather than a crappy one coming out on time. As for publishing a book, I don't know how to help anyone there as I'm still trying to work on that. But never give up hope!

5.) Last question, how do you personally deal when you've experienced a "Writer's Block"? What do you do?

Writers Block is a b****, nobody likes it. Usually when I deal with it, I tend to stop what I'm doing, walk around my house or outside, lay down in bed or eat some food, and try to get my mind in a calm or relaxed state. I usually get Writers Block when I'm stressed about trying to finish a chapter quickly, but then I can't write more because of WB. Usually as soon as the WB goes away, so many ideas flood into my head so quickly that I barely have enough time to scribble down the ideas. And to others, don't get discouraged if you do get WB, every single amazing author has gotten it before.
