Bio: I love reading horror but when I write it I scare myself. I enjoy watching shows as Friends and ER.

Can you explain what your book is all about:

There is a secret library under the Earth. Full of mystery and terror, this place has only been visited once in the past century - by a teenager named Emily. The creatures dwelling in the library are seeking for ways to harm Emily.

Who is your target audience and why:

People who like mysteries. The setting of the story is full of mystery and makes you keep guessing. I suggest people who are teenagers read it as they might find it easy to enjoy the main character.

Does it contain other genre elements:

Yes, mystery and horror.

Tell us about your writing process:

Most of my stories just come to me. When I get inspired I usually get to writing a few chapters in my notebook, edit those then post one chapter at a time on Wattpad.

Did you encounter any challenges while writing? If so, how did you overcome them.

Yes, I got lost of how to write about a haunted library. The research process took a month. By the time I had done e research I felt like not writing but then I talked myself into it...listening to creepy YouTube videos and songs helped a lot.

You often hear that writing well is the baseline for writing. What does that mean for you?

For me, writing well has to do with how much effort I take in researching my topic. If I forget to research my writing doesn't come out well.
