FOR PHOTOS OF WHAT I LOOK LIKE AND FOR THE Q&A, SCROLL DOWN BELOW THE PREVIOUS POST!

Hey everyone! Before I start, I'd like to say THANK YOU for getting this story 80,000 reads and LIY over 400,000 READS!

Ik that you guys would prefer to have another chapter released instead of me posting this, but I felt now was a good time to maybe... reveal who I am soon. I thought I'd owe you guys this since you guys literally made my stories as successful and popular as you did. It's been a long time coming.

The reason I've never showed my face was because i've been scared. Throughout my life, i've been like Nia — bullied and made fun of for how I look. In high school, i'm sure my classmates and stuff were able to realize I had been making Fanfiction somehow bc I remember how they would gossip about me and say a lot of mean stuff about me and honestly, it had made me really sad and want to lash back at them, so I did.

However, that just made things worse. Though, I gotta admit, when they found my naruto fanfic in 2017, that shit blew tf up lol so it was bittersweet ig lol. At the same time, it made me feel afraid to show my face on here cause I was scared of everyone's judgment.

I was scared they would think I'm nasty for writing the lemons I have, I was afraid everyone would think I'm crazy, I was afraid of being made fun of for my love of Fanfiction and anime. I was also scared y'all would think I'm ugly and fat too so I didn't wanna reveal myself.

However, i've realized that if I was to ever publish The Loser's Hero, I would HAVE to show my face eventually and everyone will know I'm the girl who writes the cringey naruto fanfiction 😩 and ever since hs ended, I've been building up my confidence for the day I'd do this.

I thought I'd make a video of me answering you guys' questions about my naruto fanfiction and posting it on my youtube account. Keep in mind, I'm very awkward and stutter a lot cause I need braces, but I'll do the best I can for you all. Also I'll be recording on my phone so the video quality will also be trash lol

SO! If there's enough questions and if you guys would like me to do a face reveal for the celebration of 400k & 80k reads, comment all your questions down below and I'll try to answer as many of them as I can.

And also if you wanna ask me questions about me in general so you can get to know me, you can lol

So ya, comment as many questions as you want in the comments below 😊 (who knows, the video could come out as early as today)

---

Hey guys, so the video didn't turn out as expected so I decided that instead of doing a video face reveal, I do a pic reveal. However, I will be doing the Q&A first so here I go. I'll probably get clowned by people in my area for this post, but I need to just do this to build up my confidence and to help some of you guys realize that you shouldn't care what others think of you. Yeah, for a while, I was scared and embarrassed about others knowing what I wrote and who I am and that I'm a total anime weev, but you know what? WHO CARES!

BE UNAPOLOGETICALLY YOU!

So I hope me revealing myself will help others feel confident enough to show others who's the brilliant writer for their stories.

To start things off, my real name is not Janae. Janae is my middle name. My actual name is... Tania. YES! I have the same name as the oc in my Gohan story. I also live in the USA so that's all I'll say regarding that.

So, the QUESTIONS! These were all asked by you guys yesterday whether it was in the comment section, on ig, or on private message on here.

1. If you were Naruto, who would you want as a sibling?

If I was Naruto, I would want Shikamaru as my sibling cause I feel like he was always there for Naruto and when Jiraiya had died, Shikamaru was one of the people who cheered Naruto up. I don't watch Boruto yet, but I'm sure Shikamaru is STILL there for Naruto, no doubt.

2. Will you write another Naruto fanfic with an oc and other pairing?

No bc I'm not really into the other characters like I was for Naruto. Don't get me wrong, I like them, but just not enough to write about them. If I were to make another fanfic, I'd most likely write about Bakugo from My Hero Academia. His character is interesting to me and it would be a good challenge for me to write a romance involving him lol

3. How old are you?

I'm 22, but I'll be 23 in September ❤️

4. What's your favorite scene in the story?

I don't really have a favorite scene, but I do like when Naruto and Nia are lovey dovey

5. Who would you date if you were a character in the story?

Naruto's BAE ❤️

6. Who would you date BESIDES Naruto in the show?

😂😂😂 if I couldn't have Naruto, i'd probably take Lee just cause he's really sweet toward the girl he loves, is outgoing, hardworking, and is overall a good person.

7. What is your favorite chapter?

I'd probably have to say main story wise, the Akihiko arc when he was first introduced. I loved writing that chapter. I also like the chapter in HIY where Nia was dead and she was talking to Naruto one final time and they got to hold their babies 😭 chapter 60.

I also LOVE the bonus chapters lol it's repetitive but I love writing about Naruto being oblivious to his feelings for Nia and her feelings for him.

8. What is your favorite lemon?

Omg, I think the lemons are SO hot! I remember LOVING writing the Dark Naruto lemon even though it was kinky and rough. Something about imagining Naruto as really dominant and in control was sexy to me lol. I also like the bonus chapter where Naruto came home late from a mission and Nia was upset cause she had prepared dinner for him like two times but it went cold cause he was late and then they ended up doing it.

And I LOVED the chapter where Nia dressed up as a bunny for Naruto. Something about writing that was sexy to me. Especially when Nia rode Naruto after he came lol and he was like "ARGGHHH HAAAH~" Like yes 😳💦

9. Who do you ship Naruto with in the show?

Straight couple wise, Hinata. But my true ship with Naruto is with Sasuke 😍 NARUSASU

10. Would you date Akihiko?

Yes cause he sees the beauty in Nia despite how she looks.

11. Would you date Akihiko over Naruto?

No. Like I said, Naruto is BAE ❤️

12. Be honest, who's your anime crush?

In all honesty, I've been crushing on Naruto since I was 16 lol does that mean I can't like real guys? NO! I just have a anime crush as well.

13. Are you dating anyone in real life?

No. I'm currently single. I don't even have a crush on any guy right now. I've been more focused on writing my stories and working and spending time with my family. However, if the right guy comes along, I wouldn't mind dating.

14. Why is Kiba so mean in the story?

Honestly, I just wanted to provide conflict to NaruNia's relationship. It would've been boring if every single one of Naruto's friends accepted Nia. You gotta admit, having Kiba being a bitch and trying to sabotage NaruNia was interesting lol in the show, he can be a jerk, but I'm sure if Nia were in the show, he wouldn't ACTUALLY be that mean towards her lol

15. What made you want to write Light In You?

Honestly, I was depressed as a 16 year old and I had wanted to escape from reality cause I was getting bullied at school and cause guys were always calling me ugly and treating me like shit and one day I was just like, "you know what? I wanna write about a girl who conquers her bullies and grows to love herself despite how she looks"

Then I also had a crush on Naruto and I knew he would be perfect to write about cause he has talk no jutsu and I thought he would help Nia come out of her depression and start loving herself. I was hoping people would be inspired by my story or like realize that they're more than how they look and that they too can find love and someone who accepts them wholeheartedly.

I never expected for the story to blow up tho lol

16. Would you want to be Nia's friend If she was a real person or if I were in the story?

Of course lol

17. Is Nia based off of someone in your real life?

I'll be honest but clear. Nia IS me! I AM Nia lol

Her insecurities and struggles in LIY was mine when I was a teenager. I was VERY insecure, had ridiculously low self esteem and felt HIDEOUS! Like I said, I was also bullied a lot and guys would constantly call me all sorts of names related to my appearance like I was ugly, fugly, a monkey, a gorilla, a dog, a toucan. They were CONSTANTLY ignoring me and constantly laughing at me everytime they saw me in the halls.

The would even say stuff like "ew' or "she's ugly as shit" whenever they saw me. They were just really awful and mean and I was very depressed for a long time bc of their words and rejection of me.

However, over the years, I was able to build up my confidence and I no longer have very low self esteem or am as insecure as I once was. I'm a much happier person and in HIY, Nia is more like me today.

But ya, I literally just wrote myself in my naruto fanfic. Thanks for shipping me so hard with Naruto lol

18. What do you find attractive in a real guy?

Honestly, I just want someone who's kind, loving, loyal, non judgmental and would like if we're both attracted to each other physically and emotionally. I want someone I can completely be myself around and who likes anime just as much as I do. I want someone who'll accept me and love me flaws and all.

19. When will the manga be out?

Well, in the contract, a chapter has 3 months to be finished and it's already been a month so it should be put next month or the next. The rough draft has been completed and it SOOO CUTE ❤️❤️❤️

20. What do you find SO attractive about Naruto?

Honestly, I just like his heart and personality. If you read Nia's reasoning for why she likes Naruto in the fanfics, those are literally the reasons why I like him. Remember, Nia IS me lol even her crush on Naruto is my crush on Naruto.

OKAY! So that's all.. sorry that took a long. Now onto the pictures. What do I REALLY look like...

Okay, there you go. That's what I literally look like. If you guys would like to get to know me better or talk about my stories, you can message me on my instagram at janaeh.wattpad

Please don't just leave this post without any comments. I wanna know your thoughts on this lol
