What is your writing process?
I tend to start with outlining my characters for story. Many times I will go into a lot of detail that almost never gets used. Still, it is fun to see these characters come to life. Once I have a solid cast of characters for whatever it is my story will be about I work out the setting and plot. Usually, I will go overboard with an outline for a book. Case in point, Hidden Lies is 125k words while the outline for it is 40k words. After that, it's just a matter of writing the thing and publishing it.
Do you remember the first story you ever read, and the impact it had on you?
Girlfriends by Milk Morinaga. If I believed in a goddess than she would be the one. Goddess of Yuri. Truly though the story had a large impact on my writing followed by the well written Katawa Shoujo. Those two works made my writing what it is today.
