What inspired the idea of my story is the training my mum used in bringing up I and my five sisters. She had an uncanny ability just like the protagonist in my book Zeal. Combined with the fact that she was strong and resilient. Everyone needs such kind of mother figure in their lives, add that and a little mystery and you're in for a ride

I didn't struggled with much. Just had a bit of a hard time structuring some later parts of the plot. But I eventually got around that and now, Book 1 is complete.
3
What I enjoyed most while writing my story was the way words could flow so easily, it was as if I was writing from a notebook or something. This was only because I could relate so well with the storyline.
4
The overall response from my writer's was mind blowing. They keep telling me my plot is unique and the characters are relatable. They totally enjoyed the suspense and the twist and turns the story had
No, my story isn't a stand alone. The Book 2 coming out in April follows the ending of Book 1 so you have to read that first to understand and flow well.
6
I want my readers to see parenting as it really is. The joys, the sadness, the anxiety, the apprehension, the zeal, the tears, the imperfections and everything that goes along with being a single mother.
7
The advice I would give fellow writer's when it comes to focusing on their story is to write a book that is totally relatable and not the cliche used plots. When you find yourself relating to certain parts or situations, it wouldn't be hard for more ideas that will help in aiding your plot. That's what I am just learning about.

my story is a breath of fresh air and it doesn't only tell the woes of a single mother. It deals with intricate matters of the heart like death, betrayal, lies and all. Imagine you being stranded with your kid in a town you thought was safe. How would you react then?? Where would you go? How would you cope?
9
If new readers can't honestly answer those questions, I believe this book would be right for them
1
Well instead of future projects, all I have are ongoing and are on my profile if mystery, teen fiction or horror are your cup of tea
I have a book that is currently on my profile for previewing and it will be out by August (my birth month) It's my first ever horror story and I am aiming for suspense all the way

Dead cold is more like it. Adi isn't sure if he's being kept around as an emergency foodsource or if this vampire really wants to help him, but whatever the case may be, he doesn't have much choice in the matter. --- Cover photo by Cristian Newman on Unsplash - https://unsplash.com/@cristian_newman --- I do updates on my twitter and blog on what I'm up to every now and again when it comes to my writing.
