So I haven't really spoken about my book much on the blog but I am writing a YA book so I wanted to write about it on here! This was created by Jessi Elliot I think so feel free to check out her video. Let's get started...
A story of a lot of endings and a lot of new beginnings.
1) What is the working title of your book?
My working title is To Be Continued. I'm not really sure if I could call it something else but I like this title so far.
2) Where did the idea come from for your book?
I've had the idea for the longest time since I was about 16 and honestly, I have no idea where it came from but I'm happy that I discovered it.
3) What genre does your book fall under?
It is a YA contemporary but some of the characters are a little older being 19 up to 21.
4) Which actors would you choose to play in your movie rendition?
I literally have no idea. I've always had an idea that I would want someone unknown to play Emily who is the main protagonist but I have no idea for the other people involved.
5) What is the one sentence synopsis of your book?
A story of a lot of endings and a lot of new beginnings.
6) Will your book be self-published or represented by an agency?
When I finish it I hope that I will be traditionally published but this is such a long way off yet. I need to get writing and editing first.
7) How long did it take you to write the first draft of your manuscript?
I have been writing the WIP for about two years but I really want to finish it this year. I am determined!!!
8) What other books would you compare this story to?
I don't know if there is anything massively similar but for the friendship and ace relationship, I feel like it is close to Radio Silence by Alice Oseman.
9) Who or what inspired you to write the book?
I think that I love the story and I really want other people too. It has lots of subjects that I care about throughout so I really want to talk about them. This book gives me that the opportunity to do that in what I hope turns out to be a happy and lovable story!
10) What else about your book might pique the reader’s interest?
It has a strong focus on platonic love especially friendships and family. It also has an asexual main character with many other LGBTQIA+ characters. There are lots of adventures which are set around the UK and London. It has a coming of age feel which deals with leaving home and exam stress and mental illness.
Have you got a WIP? Let me know what it is about in the comments!
See you soon,
Amy
