    Author : MiNinjaGeek

Q: May we know a few words about yourself ?!

Ans: Well, I'm Sama , and my biggest dream is to become an author one day , and hopefully a screenwriter as well . I'm also a bit of a nerd too , I just really love science . I'm an English literature major in university .

Q: Woah, that's amazing.I hope your dream comes true 😄. When did you start writing either on this platform or in a normal way ?!

Ans: Thank you!
I started writing when I was little, probably around 7 I think. But I really started loving it and putting effort into it when I was 12, and it's been 6 years now that I write whatever story pops into my head.

Q: That's great 😄 . What is your  motivation to write ?!

Ans: Making a difference. All of my stories have a purpose in which I try to send a message through it, whether it be about climate change, or how to deal with emotions and anxiety, or more. I find comfort in writing because I can pour all my feelings into them.

Q: Nice! 😄 How did you feel when you got to know that you are the winner ?!

Ans: I was completely shocked!! I participated in lots of contests but I never actually won anything, which did set back my confidence a little. So when I found out I won this, I was ecstatic!! Especially because this was the year I wanted to make sure that this is the career path I want to take, and winning this was just the push I needed to be confident in my skills.

Q: That's great and once again congratulations 😄 . Did you ever face criticism?! If yes, how did you overcome it ?!

Ans: Thanks!

I have yes, it was for one of my earlier books. However I'm the kind of person to learn more from criticism, so while I was a bit sad about it, it made me more determined to keep writing and learning more. And now reading back, I see just how much I've evolved and I'm truly thankful for any criticism I get.

Q: Nice 😄 When did you come across this genre or this fanfiction category ?!

Ans: I guess from the beginning. Romance is always something people like to read, even if it's just a subtle side plot. And beside the main plot, I focus a lot on the characters' relationships, whether platonic or romantic.

Q: Nice. Looking forward to reading one of your books 😄. What is your opinion about our awards and the way we hosted it ?!

Ans: Oh, it was brilliant!! The submission forms were great, everyone was kind and respectful. It was an overall enjoyable experience. You all did great!

Q: ThankYou So much 😄. How do you handle writer's block ?!

Ans: I like to break routine when I face that. Do something out of the ordinary, a little adventurous if I can. It really helps my mind refresh and get back into writing mode.

Q: Do you plan on taking writing as a profession ?!

Ans: Yes! I'm starting university as an English Literature major, so I'll be taking lots of writing courses in it. Hopefully I can make a career out of writing.

Q: Good luck with your journey 😄 . What was the response you got when you first published this book?!

Ans: Well I didn't have many readers so I didn't have much response, but some of my friends who have read it absolutely love it, and that makes me really happy. Hopefully as more people read it, I'll get more opinions as to if my writing skills are good or not

Q: Is there any advice you would like to give to teenagers out there ?!

Ans: Never doubt yourself. People will always try to bring you down, no matter what you do, so you might as well live life the way you like it. Always be kind to everyone, even if they don't deserve it, it'll save you from a guilty conscience. Count your blessings before bed, no matter how small they may be. And just...smile more often, it does wonders.

Q: A few words about our community ?!

Ans: It's beautiful. Almost everyone is super kind and supportive, and it's really nice seeing so many people with the same interests as you.

Q: I'm glad you liked our community 😄 . Would you like to join this community ?!

Ans: I'd love to, but unfortunately I'll be very busy starting tomorrow so I won't be as active on the media other than updating my books.

Q: How did you feel like giving us the interview ?! Any suggestions you would like to give ?!

Ans: It felt amazing, I'm incredibly honored. Thank you so much for the opportunity! And honestly I feel like it was perfect so I don't have any suggestions.

Thankyou for your time. Have a good day/night ahead 😄

You as well!
