Smashwords Interview

Do you remember the first story you ever read, and the impact it had on you?
The first book I've ever read was "The Sword In The Stone" by T.H White. I was captivated by the arthurian legend in this book, the world building, the magic system and of course the important of friendship and family values it taught by the end of the story. But the book that really had me inspired to be a writer was Eragon by Christopher Paolini. It was there my passion for reading and writing had begun.
When did you first start writing?
As a new writer in the block, I have no experience or training in writing before. To add more, English is not my native language. Everything I know about writing are self taught. You may find many grammatically errors in my writing, as I am the author and the editor as well (I can't afford one). As long as my readers understand what am I telling them in my stories, that is the most important part. I started writing my first book Z-Virus in 2014, when I realized there were not so many employment to choose from in the area where I live. So I hold on to this Principe "I must do something" to support myself. And now here it is, I completed my first book last year in July 2015, but not yet published. I only published my book in July 2016 after learning how to convert everything into eBook and I'm very happy about it.

    I don't know how to describe your story. I lost interest in the first few pages. It started out weird. You're missing something. I don't know. It's really weird. I'm sorry.

    I read this book last year and it was a very good read! But I hate the ending! Why?
