RANDOM

Q: Does writing energize or exhaust you?

A: I won't lie...both!
Especially when I have to do school prompts. Still, I'll never get tired of doing it❤️

Q: Does a big ego help or hurt writers?

A: Ego will ruin anyone. Word of advice, never dwell on praise, it'll make ya head swelllllll😂... trust me, you don't want a large head.

Q: Do you try more to be original or to deliver to readers what they want?

A: I try to be more original but still I write in a way that'll please the audience.

Q: If you could tell your younger writing self anything, what would it be?

A: Young writing self...
You did good, now I'm better, but I'm heading to the best🤭❤️

Q: How many hours a day do you write?

A: Wowwww...I'll remind myself to set a timer next time😂
There was a time I pulled an all nighter and wrote an essay for about six hours straight...yesss, English lectures are brutal!!!!

Q: Do you read your book reviews? How do you deal with bad or good ones?

A: When I read reviews, I intentionally look for the bad ones because that's how we learn. Never let a bad review make you sad because someday that bad review will be a good one if you work towards making it happen.

Commentary: Well, that was interesting. Let's see what Summer Writer has for us in the next stage!

029 MEDUSA

Q: MEDUSA, The leader of GORGONS, how are you doing today?

A: I'm good, I'm good. I won't turn you guys to stone since you finally gave me my long anticipated interview. 😭💪

Q: What inspired GORGONS?

A: Medusa was THE strongest Gorgon in Greek mythology, even though she was a mere mortal. So I thought it would be a befitting name for my fans... 🤭

Q: Awesome, so tell PPEN about the previous stage; what was your reaction when you saw your result on the verdict and eviction nights?

A: Omor. 😭 I seriously thought I'd be the only one voting for me, honestly. I was so surprised to see I placed second, SECOND.

Q: Stage four just begun, can you tell us what you think about this stage, what should we be expecting in this stage?

A: I'm really excited about this stage because they've not done anything similar in the past years. Makes me feel special, you know? 🤭 Also, y'all should be expecting ALOT because I'm definitely sure the contestants and I are willing to do ANYTHING to get to the top 10.

Q: Which housemate have you bonded with, it's been a while in the house, there ought to be someone?

A: Pen reaper, Ceaser, Ascendant, trafalgar, Lioness, homa... In fact, all the housemates, they're all my baes for real. 😭❤️ Honourable mention: Rene, even though she's not a contestant anymore.

Q: Which housemate did you think killed it last stage, also shout out to the GORGONS.

A: Trafalgar. (Maybe it's just because I like his writing, though 😭). Also, thank you, GORGONS (if y'all exist), for letting me continue as a contestant. 💞 You should've seen the way I screamed in my mother's house that night, lol. 😭

RANDOM

Q

: If you had to do something differently as a child or teenager to become a better writer as an adult, what would you do?

A: I'd say to start writing earlier, I only started writing in April of this year. 😭 Also, I would ABSTAIN from those cringey werewolf stories on wattpad; they left we with bad habits. 😭

Q: How long on average does it take you to write a book?

A: 2 years Probably. I make like a million drafts, and the plot changes every time, lol. 😭

Q: What's the most difficult thing about writing characters from the opposite sex?

A: I LOVE writing men; especially men in love. I think it's harder to write women because I have to portray their insecurities perfectly.

Q: Does a big ego help or hurt writers?

A: it's good and bad at the same time. If I were too shy to show people my work, I'll never improve. But then I'll also not improve if my head is too swollen to accept criticisms.

Q: What is the first book that made you cry?

A: Girl In pieces by kathleen Glasgow.

Q: Wattpad or Netflix?🤭😂

A: Even though wattpad and I fight all the time, I'll still pick it all over again. 🤭🤭

Commentary: Gurlllll, I also cried when reading Girl in Pieces

Q: Stage four is about to commence, what do you think about this stage? Are you anticipating or do you foresee an uncomfortable journey?

A: I think the forth stage is going to be very practical. Although I am anticipating it, I am also terrified of what is to come.
