When I was around eighteen, I read several Jane Austen stories and watched many adaptations of Pride and Prejudice. It was Pride and Prejudice, and also Sense and Sensibility that inspired the idea of my story.
My main character Cathy. When I first started writing this story, my characters and the circumstances were different. Even her name was different and she was older than she is now. I struggled with developing her character because the original character was deeply ingrained in my mind as one way, but the story wanted my character to be stronger and have more of a voice. So, with that, I started developing a new character and Cathy was born from that. Once I started actually writing her character after developing her, it became much easier to get her on the page.
The banter between Cathy and Nicholas. It's always fun to write.
My story doesn't have many parts up, but from what people are reading, they seem to enjoy it so far!

This particular story is part of a series. I plan on developing more books from this story!

I would like readers to take away from this story that just because people are good friends doesn't mean that it can't be more in the future. That a platonic kind of relationship can blossom into love. Also, I would say that the theme is "trust your heart."
I would say that it's perfectly fine to be inspired by other stories and ideas, but in order to have a story that stands out above the rest of them, focus on developing the characters. There are only seven or so plots in story writing. What sets stories apart in uniqueness is making sure that the story itself has strong characters, and by strong characters, that doesn't necessarily mean that they have to be strong people. It just means that they should be developed in a way that makes them human. Characters that are realistic always stand out, and that's how readers will come to you. It's okay to have a cliche story. I admit that my own story is cliche, but I like to make things realistic in a way.

She loves to play the piano and is good at it. I'm not good at piano, but we both share a love for piano playing. Also, Cathy likes to snoop around places. I do the same thing.
I get new readers whenever I post regularly, but I'm not sure what draws them in. I would say that because it's historical romance and this kind of historical story has been popular for decades, that could be one of the reasons why people come to it.
Actually, yes. I plan on writing the sequel when I finish writing this story. I'm super excited about it!
