Q
As a writer do you prefer using a pen name or real name?
Why?
A
I like to use my real name, because there is no reason
for someone who hasn't got a reputation to try and remain anonymous. That just
kind of seems pretentious to
me.
me.
Q
Which genre do you normally write? Are you comfortable
going out of your comfort zone?
A
I am mostly a drama guy, but since there is at least a little
bit of drama in every genre, I can be pretty versatile. So my comfort zone is
pretty big and I don't mind going out of it.

Single, wish I had a bf. Never cheated when I did date, and
never would. But when I am single, I'm pretty promiscuous.

Yes; if I had felt it was my only option, I wouldn't still be
alive though right? :p

Q
Where do you get your inspiration?
A
From watching people interact in different situations and
having different experiences in my own life. Vague but true :p
Q
How do your approach your writing? Are more OCD? Plan
everything out with outlines and what amounts to storyboards? Or do you just
fly by the seat of your pants and work everything out as it comes?
A
I'm somewhat OCD. I generally come up with some overarching
theme, and then a particular subject, and then I'll make a really basic
outline. N/a too involved though.
But there's no way I could write a good story on the fly, which is why I'm slow at it.
