Published: Author interview at SpillWords Press

I’m very excited to share my interview as an author, published on SpillWords Press. I’ve been meaning to share it here since the 16th of March, the day it was published, but I’ve been extraordinarily busy thanks to my publisher and things completely beyond my control. Here’s an excerpt of the interview. What does it mean to be selected as Author of The Month? It’s a huge honour to be selected…

Tag game!!

Rules: tag 15 people you want to know better

Thank you to the lovely @holikat for tagging me! I absolutely love stuff like this, and if anyone wants to just ask me random questions anytime (within reason) I’d love to answer them!

Relationship status: single and content, but also open to a change if it happens? It only took me almost eighteen years to become content with singleness so I am proud of that.

Fave colors: all neutral shades, light and dark gray, champagne, mauve, black, lavender, ivory, navy, light blue, and earth tones.

Lipstick or chapstick: lipstick! Neutral shades for the summer and spring, and more bold and dark for the fall and winter!

Three fave foods: Chicken Tikka Masala with Garlic Butter Naan, Beef Phô, and any pasta cooked in a garlic or pesto sauce.

Song stuck in my head: turning tables by Adele (so random!?)

Last song I listened to: Till I found you by Phil Wickham

Last movie I watched: Leap Year! I’m not normally a rom-com type of girl, but my roommate made me watch it, and it wasn’t bad!

Top 3 favorite TV Shows: BBC’s Sherlock, ITV/Masterpiece’s Victoria, and The Crown(!!) (I prefer British-made/British-centered shows, as you might have guessed 😂)

Books I’m currently reading: Absolute Friends by John Le Carré, Fools for Christ by Jaroslav Pelican, Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë, and Unwritten Letters to You by T.B. LaBerge

Last thing I googled: bath and body’s wild berry and chamomile tea (can anybody give me a conclusive answer as to whether this scent was discontinued or not? Because I need to know!)

Current time: 7:08 pm

How many blankets do you sleep in: two! A thick plaid one, and those fuzzy and furry aesthetic looking blankets in gray

Dream trip: Western Europe to see London, Bath, France, Switzerland, and Austria

Anything you want: to see my will and God’s will become aligned for me in my lifetime. It is a struggle, and on some days, a losing battle, but it would bring me endless peace and comfort to be able to say that outside of the Will of God, there is nothing I want.

I tag: @skelephants @apricot-studies @eudaimonia-111 @trusttheunknownn @grace--upon--grace @goodshipsherlollipop @holytemple @vanessastudiess @officiallystudying @studyplants @lycheestudy @flo-studies @hopeloveandpray @imperialstudy @myend-ismybeginning

Feel free to participate if you want, or DM me your answers if you’d rather do that instead of making a post!!

[leatherjacketvan]

I was tagged by @mintyvan for the “get to know me better tag!”

relationship status? : single. lmao I can’t find irl friends nonetheless a boyfriend :*)

favorite color? : as someone who is an avid painter. to claim I have a ‘favorite color’ would be critical to say the least! so I suppose I should probably say any of the primary colors! blue and red especially! :)

lipstick or chapstick? : CHAPSTICK! all the way chapstick. Burt’s Bees is by far my favorite however there is another one I tried that I instantly fell in love with. I’ll update you if you too are a connoisseur of the chapstick arts. I literally use chapstick 24/7 and it never leaves my side! gotta keep those lips hydrated ladies! ;)

last song? : Boredom - Tyler the Creator. love his music! I was listening to Rich Brian on Spotify radio and it came on. what a friggin’ bop dude! :)

last movie? : Star Wars : The Last Jedi. I’m late on trend (as usual) but it honestly was a cinematic masterpiece! not gonna lie. check it! :)

top 3 shows?: The Blacklist (love me a good crime show) That 70’s Show (is there and explanation even needed tho?), The End of the F***ing World (can’t help that I’m a bandwagon bitch. . . sorry :/ SIKE! I’m not sorry for anything! it was a little cheesy and predictable and the ending sucked but James is such a psychopathic cutie uGh! I can’t.)

top 3 ships?: I don’t really have any OTP’s lol. sorry :/

top 3 bands (artists) as of now?: I’m naming more than three because I can’t chose three!

Billie Eilish (she’s my age and she’s probably the my talented person to walk this earth!).

Joji (I love when I’m driving and I roll down the windows and just blast ‘in tongues.’) high key the best feeling in the world. :) 10/10 recommend. his music is phenomenal!

Declan McKenna (HE’S SUCH A CUTIE! He also seems really woke and down to earth and his music really exhibits that. did I mention he’s a cutie?)

[EXTENDED LIST FOR THOSE WHO CARE.]

- Sea Ghost

- Boyscott

- Rich Brian

- The 1975

- BROCKHAMPTON

- Arctic Monkeys (505 GOT ME FUCKED UP)

favorite 3 foods?: grilled chicken (not fried must be grilled), cherry tomatoes, and there is this place in Charlotte, NC called “Crunch Bistro” if you live near the area try their portobello flatbread pizza! The whole thing is like 800cal?! so so good 10/10 recommend!

currently reading?: nothing really. but there is one book that I read from a lot and carry with me literally everywhere, everyday. It’s called “Freedom From The Known. by J. Krishnamurti.” I literally recommend that book to everyone and anyone. I would probably recommend it to your dog if I could. It’s help me through so much! you depressed? “Freedom From The Known. by J. Krishnamurti.” you anxious? “Freedom From The Known. by J. Krishnamurti.” you forgot to pay your taxes and they just repossessed your car? “Freedom From The Known. by J. Krishnamurti.” ya know? It’s such an enlightening book (it’s a philosophical. obviously) Honestly, just can’t beat it. 100,000,000/10 recommend :)

I guess you’re supposed to tag people which I don’t really want to do but I guess I tag @storiesaboutvan @tinyspaceblossom @wewerelivingfast anyways !

Thank you @mintyvan for tagging me! :)

Hope you guys got to know me a little better now!

🕊🌸

🌸• what's your favourite flower?

🕊• 3 habits you have?

My favourite flower are orchids!

I like their shape and colours, and the reason why I like them the most is probably because it was the first plant my mother gave me as a little child ♡

My 3 habits are... well,

1. every evening I light a candle and put it next to my open window (if it's not too cold)

2. I have a dairy and when I write something in it, it has to be with a little Sketch in in , I don't know why ^^

3. When I buy a new book, I have to smell at the new pages
