Q&A #paperbirdqanda
I'm bored right now so I decided to do this Q&A.
What got me into writing: I don't know. I used to HATE writing. Until one day, in 5th grade we had to write a narritive and I got this ridiculously stupid idea about a small group of kids finding a parrot and following it and getting kidnapped by pirates. That's as far as I got... But I like had started writing it and everything. Then I lost interest in writing until a year or so later when I was reading Harry Potter. The books got me through a lot and so I wanted to try to get other kids through similar things and decided to try to write a book. I couldn't think of anything and lost interest again for a year and then finally I started getting ideas and writing them and then my boyfriend came along. Ruining my plans of not having a love interest in any stories (Thanks a lot babe! I'm kidding, I love you!). But he also inspired me in a lot of ways. He is also a writer, an astonishly amazing one at that! And now, I am a young writer seeking to express myself and help others through my words!
My biggest writing influences outside of WTW/Prose: My boyfriend, who inspires me most. Myself, I have a lot to share about my life and so much that I've had to heal from, things that have left me with a limp for the rest of my life but have not killed me. My family, especially my father, for private reasons... Pain. John Green, JKR, Rick Riordan, Veronica Roth, and so many other authors. And finally, the one who gave me my gift, God.
Significance behind my profile pic: There is no significance other than the poem appealed to me. It rings true and spoke to me the way that words can only speak to a writer.

Stupid quote I like: (This is a vague paraphrasing because I don't remember the exact quote) "Vulcan! I can't be the son of Vulcan! I don't even like Startrek!!" - Leo Valdez Or he says something along those lines.
How I define my current writing style: Chaotic. I don't have an exact style. I don't think so at least... I don't know... It's just all over the place, like my mind...
Is it my set style or is it evolving: I guess evolving?
Favorite songs/Favorite sings to listen to ironically: My favorite songs are always changing but there is one that ALWAYS stays my favorite. Photograph by Ed Sheeran. I LOVE it. But as of right now, my favorite songs are Photograph by Ed Sheeran, Forever by Lewis Capaldi, Be Alright by Dean Lewis, Unforgettable by Project 46, Bruises and Bitemarks by Good with Grenades, I Am Machine by Three Days Grace, Angels Fall by Breaking Benjamin, and more. I honestly don't know what is meant by the irnoically part? I guess that it'd be ironic that I listen to it? Well if that's the case then it'd be Bruises and Bitemarks by Good with Grenades and really any heavy metal song... At least in my opinion. I've been told I seem rather shy, innocent, and quiet... And I honestly feel that way all the time. I don't know though, it'd be better to ask my boyfriend.
Common writing error/trend that is annoying: Improper spelling. I'm not talking about like a miss - spelled word here and there, no I'm talking about like every other word seems to be spelled wrong, almost as if the writer does it on purpose.
Do pineapples belong on pizza: No. Absolutely not. Pineapples are gross. Why would you put something gross on a PERFECTLY FANTASTIC piece of food! Are you trying to go to war with over half the world? I have tried pineapple pizza and I gagged.
