1) "Name?"

Thiora.

2) "Age?"

19.

3)" What are your hobbies?"

I love writing, reading, Netflix lmao and napping

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

I started writing in like 2014 one fine day in Sri Lanka. We didn’t have WiFi at my house and I was so bored so I decided to write a book. That book was Freak. So the hobby was born out of pure boredom ahah.

5) "Which was your first story generally?"

My first story ever was this one called Freak and it was fiction but harry styles was still in it and played a character called Josh Wiltshire lol. It was SHIT.

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

No I only write on Wattpad and don’t really have any intentions of writing anywhere else.

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

A lot of things really. Writing is something I truly enjoy doing and seeing people praise and enjoy my stories also motivate me to keep doing it. Also due to the large platform I have on Wattpad, I’m motivated to spread awareness on important topics such as mental illness as racism through writing books.

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

Give up writing? Not really. Giving up writing on Wattpad? Sometimes. I thought about taking a break once I finish writing true colors and heavy crown because the stress of having people waiting on me to update is just too much sometimes. Sometimes people can also be really freaking rude with the hate and all that when you’ve worked so hard on writing, it’s just better to get away from something toxic like that. But of course, I’m not giving up on writing on Wattpad right now or any time in the near future.

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

Ahhh I have a bunch but the first one that comes to mind is Anarchy by styleslegend . It’s a classic and it’s not there on Wattpad anymore because it’s been published! But it’s truly such a great book and so beautifully written. I really love Till Dawn as well!

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

You make a lot of friends on Wattpad but unfortunately not all of them stick around. Right now I still currently talk to  chrisythings  she’s wonderful and I love her dearly.

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

I do actually I feel like while writing the main female leads of books I always find myself adding characteristics that I have into those characters. I feel like a lot of the time I can be as selfless as Scarlett is, a bit naive like her too in doing so much for some people but just getting hurt in return. I think I can relate to Reina in the sense that I care about family a lot, it’s very important to me. I think out of all my characters, Scarlett is the one I relate to the most.

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

I’m studying political science and psychology in university!

13)" Describe yourself in 3 words."

Caring, passionate and awkward

14) "What do you advise new writers?"

I’d advise you guys to write what you would like to read if you were a reader looking for a fanfic. Write what you think you’d enjoy writing that way you won’t get writer’s block as much.

15)" Questions based on ' True Colours  ' : How where you inspired to write this book?"

I’ve listened to a lot of music that’s about the struggle with drug addiction. For some reason I really wanted to write a story that was emotionally dark and tackled a lot of taboo topics like drug addiction and rape.

16) " Harry is really scarred about what he did to Dean. What will be the judge if how strong he is and if he's going to overcome it in the future?"

Yes Harry is honestly crazy traumatised by what he did and I believe the readers can be the judge of whether or not he’ll be able to overcome the trauma. In order to do that, I think we need to look at the kind of support system Harry has and of course how strong we think Harry is.

17) " You story is really well put together so the only thing I can ask about the storyline is... If someone ,someday told you that you have to change somehow the whole storyline by changing just one single thing and nothing else , what would that be?"

That’s an interesting question. I think changing the part where Harry kills Dean would definitely change the storyline. Maybe I would’ve changed it so Harry died instead but everyone would probably hate me lol.

18) " A phrase or a scene that you write and you'll never forget.(and why)"

Damn the scene where Adriana told Harry that she was raped is one thing I will never forget. SUCH a powerful and sad scene, I cried while writing that. It truly speaks volumes to how many women around the world struggle to speak up about rape and those who do find the courage to do that need to be respected and praised because it’s such a difficult thing to do.

19) " How much time did it take to plan the whole plot? Are we near the end? "

For this book I don’t think I had much difficulty in planning the plot. It was fairly straightforward and easy. We are definitely nearing the end I would say about 10 or less chapters more. It’s been a wild ride!

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

I have two unfinished books at the moment. True Colors and Heavy Crown.

21)"Which is your favourite a) funny, b) dramatic, c) romantic, d) sad scene in the book , until now? "

A) There’s barely any funny scenes in the book like I legit don’t even remember. But I think whichever scene Niall acts like a horny weirdo.

B) Dramatic would definitely be when Harry showed up at Adriana’s place while Dean was there and had to pretend that he wanted cocaine. OOOOF.

C) Damn there’s so many, I think the scene was just the wholeass chapter of Adriana’s birthday.

D) Ugh this wholeass book is sad LMAO. Definitely writing that scene where Adriana had to break up with Harry to protect him as well as when she told Harry she was raped, was hard. I cried ):

22) " Any spoilers for future plans ?"

So I’m planning on doing a sequel for 'heavy crown' and then after that I might take a break from writing on Wattpad. It depends on how I’ll feel during that moment, but I do really wanna write a dystopian fanfiction and I’ve already written some details down so it’s likely I’ll come back to write that but no promises!

23) " Choose- 'challenge' two writers that you want to know about to do this interview like you."

Chingyonce my girl and highstylin

CRITICAL QUESTIONS

1)" What is the funniest name you have actually heard used in the real world?"

Hmmmm I thought North West was lowkey ridiculous. Nothing else springs to mind right now.

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

I have noooo idea lmao it’s 2 am in the morning while I’m doing this and nothing comes to mind. why don’t you tell me? Ahaha

Thank you so much macklemcvey !!❤
