1) "Name?"

Jules :)

2) "Age?"

20

3)" What are your hobbies?"

Dance, graphic design, writing, harry styles

4) "When did you start writing and why?"

When I was 13! My friends and I were huge fans of 1d so for fun I wrote a stupid little fic on https://t.co/MLXOzl1nCn (rip) to fantasize what it was like if we all lived in the same house as them lmao

5) "Which was your first story generally?"

I have no recollection of what it was called. But my first more ‘serious’ fanfiction was called Abducted Identity, a Louis fic that I took off my profile for cringe reasons.

6) "Do you write in some other website except Wattpad?"

No! I’ve always stayed true to Wattpad!

7) "What has given you motive to keep on writing?"

The feedback! Oh my lord comments on my book make it all worth it. I love to hear what emotions people are feeling when their reading stuff I wrote, it’s very surreal. I also love getting lost in another fictional world when writing.

8 )"Have you ever wanted to give up everything? (writing I mean)"

I’ve had some times were I went on a break due to the update stress, but no. I’ve always loved writing on wattpad—It’s therapeutic for me.

9) "Which is your favorite story on Wattpad?"

Holy moly that’s tough, I used to read so many fics back in the day. I don’t read them that much anymore because some people are so incredible I just get jealous of their talent😭Plus I literally spend all my free time on wattpad just writing, if I read then I won’t stop and I’ll push off everything for my own stories.

Probably some oldies like Psycho Sitter, Stranded, Phantom; they are always in my heart.

10) "Have you gained any friendship from Wattpad? If yes, which are your Wattpad friends?"

I just talking to people that read my book so I consider them my friends. I’ve followed a few on social media’s because I just like they’re energy and stuff!

11) "Do you relate with any of your characters from your books? If yes, which one and which characteristics are similar?"

I’m the Malignant Niall of the friend group. I can be pretty loud, a little annoying, and always make jokes that aren’t funny.

12) "What did you study /are you studying/do you want to study?"

I’m studying graphic design in college currently! Writing is more of a hobby, graphic is what I want my career to be based around. I don’t purse creative writing in school because I know the minute there are rules about it then I’ll loose interest and it will feel like a chore.

13)" Describe yourself in 3 words."

Lazy, Inappropriate, smiley

14) "What do you advise new writers?"

If you’re all about the numbers, don’t stop writing cause you don’t get reads right away. When I completed book one of malignant it had 15k for 100 chapters. It wasn’t until the book was completed that people started reading it! Your story is great! And don’t stop doing what you love just because you aren’t getting the feedback you wanted off the bat. Make your story special to you and don’t worry about reads and votes, that will coke eventually if you just stick to it.

15) "Questions based on ' Duplicity ' : WHAT A CONCEPT! How were you inspired to write this story?"

Haha thank you! Duplicity is something I’ve been crafting in my mind for a long time. I came up with the concept when I was started Devotion and started jotting down notes nearly daily ever since.

In my documents I have a huuuuge draft of just pure notes I’ve thought of over time that I wanted to use for this book. The notes contain anything from quotes I want the characters to say, plot lines, twists, situations, mini rough thought out scenes, personality traits of the characters, anything I think of in any point of the day that I want to jot down. I call it a skeleton.

I came up with the original thought of Duplicity over the fact that touring bands always made me curious. I always wanted to know what went on behind the scenes of world tours with popular artists like one direction. Now obviously what happens in my book isn’t what I think actually would go on with them, but it was the whole ‘what if’ thing about it. If you’ve read my past books then you know I like to put psychotic twists on everything because that’s the only genre I find exciting. So my curiosity of the unknown mixed with crime and stuff is how duplicity was created.

16)" Who's your favourite character in the book and why?”

Hard to tell;)

17)" Have you decided the plot or even the end of the book? "

The main plots from beginning to end yes, some of the little things come on the way no. Once again i jot things down in my document like twice a day. I know how the book will end and major plot twists that will happen before it, but some things I just see what happens along the way.

18) " What a dark fic, Duplicity is! Honestly it keeps me on the edge of my seat and I hold my breath every time I see that you updated. Is it like that from your end of the deal, the writer's side? Even though you know how you want it to go?"

Oh definitely, when I write certain scenes it gets me feelin some type of way as if I’m reading it myself for the first time. Its funny to think I’d feel that way about something I made up myself but writing can really inverse you in that world. I’ve physically cried while writing certain chapters before.

19) " What part do you think will be the hardest about this book?"

Making sure Duplicity Harry doesn’t become too similar to Malignant Harry. The last thing I want is for someone to think it’s just another malignant knock off cause the characters act the same. This new Harry is darker, more screwed up in many different ways. Malignant Harry had many problems, but Duplicity Harry has very different problems you’ll have to stick around and find out about.

20)" Please give us some hints about Harry's personality. He actually scares me!"

He’s got a lot going on in his head, things that could be relatable to some but also very very scary to most.

20) "The Malignant Series are done. Do you feel honestly and 100% ready for the new chapter? I'm asking this question because I think Malignant Series and its characters were pretty... intense on each one of us. And personally they have marked me!"

As cheesy as it sounds, Malignant series will always be my baby. I cannot stress enough how much I fell in love with those characters and the storyline. Malignant is my true beginning to wattpad and it will always be in my heart because the thing literally changed me as a person in the end. But I’m so excited for the next step.

21) " What's the thing that you keep with you in your heart from your previous success? How did you deal with it?"

Shortly after Malignant book 1 finished it was nominated in the fiction awards. That was pretty crazy and I’ll always remember that. I was freaking the heck out. I didn’t win but I didn’t really care about that, it was just cool to be nominated :)

22)" How many unpublished and half-finished books do you have?"

5-6 maybe? Many concept stories with only five chapters in them that I plan to retire to one day. I’ve got a short Harry story, three other Harry fics with very vast different concepts, a Niall fic, and an old Louis one.

23) "What's the hardest part of being an author in our days?"

That it’s so hard to stand out when everyone is so damn creative! It’s weird to consider myself an author because I’m heart I still feel like a 13 year old girl writing silly fanfic. But let me tell you this ‘hobby’ is cut throat. Your book may be all the hype one day but the next day people are onto the next thing. I was lucky Malignant stayed relevant for so long.

24) "Any spoilers for future plans?"

Duplicity is a love story;)

CRITICAL QUESTIONS

1) " What two totally normal things become really weird if you do them back to back?"

Put on my shoes then go take a shower.

2) "What set of items could you buy that would make the cashier the most uncomfortable?"

Porn and a bible maybe?

3) "What would be the creepiest thing you could say while passing a stranger on the street?"

I write Harry styles fanfiction

4) "What is something that you just recently realized that you are embarrassed you didn't realize earlier?"

That you could turn right on a red light (I’m Canadian)
