I do not have any principles when I write. I have learned that writing comes naturally without any bullshit.

Not precisely. Though, I used to have words I would use all the time. However, I learned that despite one's huge vocabulary, writing is best done through simplicity.

How many books have you published?
Do you write under a pen name?
Is it your day job?
How many hours a day do you devote to writing?

I had one E-published.
My day job is in retail.
I devote to my writing as much as I can, which tends to be very little.

Have you been continuing with that story, or have you been writing various other things that have come to your mind? How often do you write? Who is your favorite character you've come up with?

I decided to return to the one character I feel best incorporates what I want to share.
