Just a little place where I will post the questions along with the answers that are sent to me on my Facebook page or private messages.
Q: What order does the 'Life' series go in?
A: In the order it was originally written- Berlin Bound, Life in LA, Dominican Darkness and then finally Memories in Mexico. However, when it comes to reading the series it's best to go- Life in LA, Dominican Darkness, Berlin Bound and then Memories in Mexico.
Q: Do you take story requests?
A: Most of the time, yes. However it does depend on what exactly it is someone wants written, which category and how many I already have in the works at the time. At the moment I currently have four requests that I have yet to finish.
Q: Are you going to continue Second chances?
A: Originally no, it was strictly a one shot but a lot of readers wanted more so I caved. I am jotting down the plans for the second (and possibly third part). The second will be from Letty's POV and follow much the same as Dom's chapter did just from her point of view. The possible third part will be from Sarah's point of view, but as I said the third part is not a definite. Also it will be a little while before I get back around to finishing this.
Q: How do you come up with your story ideas?
A: Well that's a semi hard one. I listen to a lot of music, especially since I use public transport to get to and from work, so I often let my mind wander and most of the time I happen across a thought inspires me in some way, shape or form. Other times I might be doing something at home or read a word or even see something that inspires me to write a fic.
Q: When are you going to post more original characters?
A: Very soon. They're all hidden away here on the website at the moment where only I can see them until I've finished them and are ready to be posted. I have a couple of free days coming up so I have put time aside to type up Maria and Adrian's characters as they are the next ones to come. Lotty's character will take a bit longer, she's a bit of a difficult character in regards to her past. A lot of it probably won't make a lot of sense because I actually scrapped bits and pieces about her from Dominican Darkness and Berlin Bound.
Q: Is there some way that we can get a notification when you post a new story or a new chapter of a story that we are reading. The only reason I knew you posted a new story was because you posted an author note on Fanciton.net. And I don't want to miss out on a new chapter.
A: I have searched high and low for a way to notify people but I've found nothing :( The best I can do is post links on my Facebook page for everyone to see.
Q: How long does it usually take to update one of your stories? And who stole your story on FF?
A: I try and update regularly. At one point I went through a stage of updating everyday but sometimes that's just impossible as life and work gets in the way. At the moment my goal is to update every second day or at least twice a week. As for who stole my story- I'd really rather not say. Even though she did a bad thing by stealing large sections of it I'm not the type of person to name and shame. She's been reported, multiple times, but Fanfiction just won't do anything about it.
Q: Do you think after The Life Series you could create a dotty story that is a lot of chapters?
A: I could probably come up with something, I am open to ideas. When you say a lot of chapters- are you talking 100+? If that's the case I'll need my serious thinking cap on but I'm willing to give it a go. After The Life Series is done and Life after high school is wrapped up I don't have any planned fics other then Broken, my own original fiction.
Q: What is your favorite story that you've written?
A: Gosh that's also a hard one :S It's a bit of a tie really, my favourites come down to Like a boy and the entire Life series. I don't think I could chose one.
Q: How many chapters will Memories in Mexico be you think?
A: It'll be in the 40's at least quite possibly in the 60's.
Q: What got you into writing fan fictions?
A: In my early teens I was OBSESSED with the Mighty Ducks trilogy by disney and I spent a lot of time online surfing for anything about them. I stumbled upon a link to mighty ducks fanfictions, read those stories and thought hey these are pretty cool so I went looking for more. Just a few clicks later I came across Fanfiction and not long after that I started to write my own.
Q: Do you wait for a certain amount of reviews before you post a new chapter?
A: There were a couple of times on FF.net that I did because I was loosing readers and I needed to know if were even worth continuing. But on here no, I just update whenever I have time.
Q: I saw in your Original characters coming soon there is an Ana Whyte. Have we met her yet in your Life series? If so who was she and what story?
A: You have met Ana Whyte she is first appears in (depending on the order you read in) Dominican Darkness and follows through to Berlin Bound. Ana was Letty's friend in DD and BB, the only other girl in the group while they worked with Demetri.
Q: How do you make all your cool titles? Like where it says Q&A's at the top in different colors and has the bows, how do you make those?
A: For the covers I got the pictures off goggle and the writing it's all done here on Weebly in page editor. As for the fancy title above (Q&A) that's from a website called cool graphics, the fonts called vampire.
Q: Do you think you can make a promise to us right now that you will start updating Memories in Mexico every other day or two days?
A: I can't make a promise that I may not be able to keep. The reason for the long delay is because I have been in hospital and have not been able to publish anything. I will certainly promise to try and update at least every second day but I can't promise that I absolutely will post every second day.
Q: What's your favorite genre to write?
A: I have two favourites- Drama and Romance.
Q: Who do you like better Dom or Brian??? Tej or Roman? And Han or Vince? Jesse or Leon?
A: Well that's an easy one, Dom all the way!
Q: What time zone are you in? Because sometimes when you say 'chapter will be up tonight' and it's morning for me.
A: AEST (Australian eastern standard time)
Q: If Dom wasn't in fast and furious, out of everyone famous in the world who would you cast as Dom? Paul Walker, Justin Bieber, George Clooney? ANYONE FAMOUS IN THE WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD :)
A: Gosh I don't know, everyone else just doesn't seem right for the part. It's like it was made for Vin Diesel. If I absolutely had to choose it would probably be Channing Tatum.
Q:Hmmm, while I love all the Dom/Letty, still got a question regarding side pairings.
Well, firstly I'd like to know if Paul Walker's death didn't happen in your fic universe? I personally refuse to read any Brian deathfics due to Paul's death, don't want it rubbed under my nose.
And secondly, as personally I can see Brian and Mia shipped only together, not with any other characters, I'd like to know if Brian/Mia would be the definite side pairing. I sure as hell don't ship Mia with Vince (under no circumstances), neither Brian with the 2 Fast 2 Furious sl*t agent whose name I forgot
A: There has only ever been one fic I've written where I killed off Brian, and that was my tribute story to Paul Walker. So in answer to you're question no I don't kill him off, there are some of my stories I don't place him in (Eg. High school days and life after high school.) Brian just didn't fit into those. Again only one story I shipped Vince and Mia but it wasn't romantically. It was a request from another author so I wrote one based on their friendship. I don't pair Mia with anyone else other than Brian unless its OC and vice versa. Hope that answered your questions.
