People ask the inevitable question, so what do you do? Your reply is - I'm a writer. What are the craziest responses and questions you are asked when you give this reply? The most popular one I hear at the moment when my Mother does book signings and etc is, Wow, you'll be the next J.K Rowling. It never fails to freak one out - er, no I didn't say that. Being a writer doesn't immediately mean you are going to be famous. Not because it's anything like an insult of course, but if you compare the writing of your first novel/book to that of J.K Rowling, it does freak one out a little. |

I can't think of any right now, but I'm always being asked, "So am I in your story?" Uh... no. Probably not. Why does everyone ask? XD |

Because once you put a person in your book, they are immortal! And they all want to be immortal.  XDI personally put people in my book whether or not they want to be in it.

Right now I have friends that are dying to read it. My family gives me that weird look...."ohhhhh" they say. when I tell its LIKE a Narnian story, people like Narnia and tell me, that sounds interesting, let me know when its done. I too put people from this world in my story, my younger brother is a character in this story, he asks.. "What do I do?" and I tell him "Well you ride a Griffin, you fight bad guys, and you help defeat the king." his response "OH COOL!!!!" My parents have always liked my stories, even though this one is a little off the wall for me **Coughs** no offense my holy worlders, this story is different compared to what I usually write BUT ITS FUN!!!
