A: Yeah, I want to give a shout out to Summer Writer. I think she's really brave and inspiring.

009 Rising Sun

Q: How do you feel about getting evicted? Are you disappointed or do you think you'd have made it to the next stage?

A: I feel good, which is interesting cuz when I was in the dungeon I felt disappointed because I was not one of the most liked contestants and I had landed on the red line for the third time in a row 😂. I knew my chances of getting evicted were high. My confidence was really wavering.

However, I decided to be positive. I choose to see my stories as good works in progress rather than failures. I told myself that there is hope because though I made mistakes, I can improve. I can grow and stretch my wings. Looking at the bright side of things gave me peace.

When I was announced as an evicted contestant, I was felt so at ease. I'm not kidding. I think that's because I had already worked through my emotions, rationalized the two possible outcomes and made peace with them. I know my writing journey doesn't end here and I've come out as a better writer, so yay character development 😂🔥

Q: What were your last moments in the house? How did the other contestant say their farewell to you?

A: My last moments were spent watching how the other contestants reacted to eviction night. It was ... it was a lot😂. So many plot twists left and right. Sigh, I'll miss the house sha. I'm not sure if anyone noticed I left. It's not their fault because I wasn't so active in the house.

Q: Any contestant you want to give a shout-out to specifically?

A: No, I don't have one specific person in mind.

Q: Is there anything you'd love to say to the project pen house?

A: Congratulations for making it to this stage guys❤️✨. Even though our time together was short, I really enjoyed my stay there. I liked the rants, couple squabbles, silly arguments, encouragement and the shared angst over the judges' reviews. You guys shouldn't fight too much o😂 And um, may the best man/woman win🔥

Q: Do you have any regrets or is there anything you wish you had done in the house?

A: I only regret not socializing more.

Q: Is there any specific thing you learnt from project pen?

A: A major complaint I got was that my works could be confusing, so I learnt I had to really understand why my characters were making the choices they were making in the plot, to avoid inconsistency or plot holes.
