What inspired me to write the book was the fact that there was not a lot of diversity in writing, especially when it came to werewolves and romance.
2
Something I struggled to construct in my story was to make Lucien (the Alpha) dominating, but respective at the same time.
?
I probably enjoyed writing the romance scenes the most, because it made me understand my body more as I wrote from the POV of another. I was able to figure out things that I wasn't able to do, such as lay down above another person.
4
The overall response of my story from my readers has been that they have been wanting for me to write a sequel with my two main characters having pups. From the comments that I have read, my readers all enjoyed the ups and downs my characters has, especially the plot twist that so far, nobody has been able to guess.
5
Technically, my story is a stand-alone, but I will be writing spin-offs for other characters either mentioned or seen in the book.
6
What I would like for readers to take away from my book is that regardless if you have a disability or not, you are unique, and you are special, no matter what; there will always be someone out there for you.
7
Advice I would give to fellow writings focusing on their own stories would be to just write. Some people will like your book, others won't. It doesn't matter (unless of course, you keep getting the same negative response, in which you should edit your book). Many were hesitant to read my book at first because of the...uniqueness of it. They weren't expecting a disabled Luna or a respectful Alpha, but over time, many of my readers enjoyed my character's personalities. Just keep writing!

My main character, Raleigh, has Emery Driefuss Muscular Dystrophy (long name, sorry) just like me. It is a struggle to live with this disability, and I write out my struggles as Raleigh's character. Additionally, she looks like me. (minus the age-gap).
Something about my story that I believe would draw new readers in would probably be the cover, as I have changed it. Also, I changed up many of the characters, just to make their personalities unique in the plethora of bad boy Alphas and feisty, stubborn Luna's.
I have many books in the making but the one I am working on now is called: The Masked King. It is a darker version of Beauty and the Beast with my own twist. I also have a few contemporary romances (such as High school cheating scandals and teenage pregnancies), but my focus will mainly be on Fantasy/Werewolf/Vampire books/
