My mom inspired all of my writing. I was homeschooled. My mom would have a class that included writing prompts. We had five minutes to write whatever came to mind. When the five minutes were up, we were graded on whatever we wrote.One day, my mom picked a prompt about someone getting stuck in an elevator with another person. Eventually, they become friends.Throughout the years, even after graduation, the writing prompt stuck with me. I wrote so many stories until one finally stuck and I fell in love with the plot.

I had a struggle with making my characters relatable. I want my readers to get their emotions involved.I don't even care if they hate a particular character, I want emotion!Also, this is my first real romance novel. So, it was a bit difficult to write a romantic story that didn't move too fast.
I loved writing because it allows you to create an entire whole inside an actual one. When you write, there is really no limit to your imagination. I had fun with the setting and simply things, like the dialogue for this story. Creating my characters and developing their personalities were the most fun for me.
Much to my surprise, I think a lot of my readers enjoy it. My comments and responses have all been mega positive, in which I'm super grateful. A lot of my readers have a love/hate relationship with my male protagonist, which, even though it sounds strange, I'm really happy about! So far, so good!
It's a Series! (I haven't really told that anyone that yet! lolol)Hopefully this first book is a hit. If so, I'll definitely be writing the stories of my other characters.
I want my readers to learn that it's important to always know your value.Stay true to your morals and work hard!Working helps you to earn respect, which will give you a good reputation.I also want people to realize that money doesn't make you happy. Being successful doesn't mean someone is happy.

I would encourage them to
Write Without Feedback.
If you love the story, someone, even if it's only one person will love the story too
. Accept criticism with an open mind.
If someone doesn't like it, don't let it get you down.
Stay positive and keep writing! The worst thing you can do is give up.
Absolutely!
There are so many!
My main character is very grounded in her morals. Even if her emotions are involved, she won't allow herself to go against them. She's very determined character and not afraid to fight for what she wants.We are also similar in that we are both hard-workers and ensure our quality of work is high.
Lastly, we both are very loyal to our friends.

Everyone is working towards something; albeit good or bad. They all experience different journeys to get to their destination. Each character has a story and I hope it holds enough interests that you want to find out what it is.

His Trophy | Jerome Valeska
"Oh and Jim, Jim Gordon?" Jerome peered into the camera as if to yell out to an audience: "I have Rory here," he turned the camera towards Jim's daughter and revealed to the audience a girl that had been beaten and tormented, she was gaged and her eyes didn't look at the camera but above the lens; at Jerome who was holding the camera."Say hi to Daddy, doll face," he jeered from behind the camera. She looked down the lens and shook her head as if to tell Jim not to try. The camera went back to Jerome."She's a beauty isn't she, Jimbo," Jerome smirked into the camera, his laughter becoming harsh and wild: "and she's all mine, you try anything, and I mean anything, I kill her. She's my prisoner, my reward, and you're not taking her away from me Jimmy boy, on no, not this time" his words were spoken through waves of laughter.***Rory Gordan is the stepdaughter of Jim Gordon. Her mother moved a lot so Rory was born in Gotham City but raised in England and from the age of 10 she had been bouncing from one country to another with her mother. However, when she turned 17 she had grown tired of the constant change of moving and decided to move to America. It was when she was visiting her long term boyfriend when her life got flipped upside down, not only did she meet one of the craziest boys on the planet, but she discovered that she had a gift that would curse her forever. This story is a collection of scenes rather than a flowing plot, so its chronological but it skips scenes and jumps back and forth between different perspectives. The story is under editing, so it'll get more cohesive over time.••• I do not own any characters or plot lines from the tv show. However, all original characters like Rory do belong to me.Total Word Count [33,674]

Winter Fire [ Book 1 ] ✔
On the second jump, Claire's bad leg gave way and she felt herself tumbling forward. A cry of surprise escaped her and Claire was certain she was about to topple off the side of the train. Alek, however, moved quickly, catching her mid-fall and keeping her upright, and alive. Claire lifted her eyes to meet his which were wide with alarm. The expression was fleeting, lasting for only a moment before it was replaced by a frown. "You could have fallen," he said pointedly."I know," Claire breathed, finding her thoughts drifting to the strong arm wrapped around her waist. A flush rose to her cheeks and she was grateful for the biting wind that masked her reaction. "Thank you.""You need to be more careful," he continued, his eyes locked on hers, bright and haunting in the silver glow of the moon overhead."I will," Claire assured him, her heart skipping in her chest. "I promise."------1st Place in the Chaos Awards2nd Place in the Mystic Awards2nd Place in the Stella Luna Awards2nd Place in the Talent Awards 2018Highest Ranking #1 In SteampunkFound on the official Wattpad Fantasy account featured reading list "Wintery Worlds"
