Q & A Session 6

Q1. Have you been reading anything interesting lately? Do you have any recommendations because I've run out of things to read.

A. I've been reading a mix of things over the past few months, so I guess I'll recommend the things that were memorable and really stood out to me. 

Fanfiction

The King's Shadow by AntaredTheEighthPleiade. It's Merlin story, and it's a sequel to The Warlock's Quickening. And it's basically a more proactive Merlin which is always a good but rare thing to come across. 

Yesterday Upon The Stair by PitViperOfDoom. A Boku no Hero Academia story. It's a bit of an AU where Izuku has a quirk. He see dead people. It's an interesting idea and I'm intrigued to see how things develop in the future.

Books

The No 1 Ladies' Detective Agency Series by Alexander McCall Smith. I've watched the TV series before but I've finally managed to read a majority of the series recently. The story is set in Botswana with the lead character Mma Precious Ramotswe setting up a detective agency and solving all sorts of problems- both big and small. I love the easy-going voice and the sedate pace of these stories. They're the sort of thing you can read to relax. Currently has 17 novels in the series.

Articles

Angels & Demons by Thomas French. This is not for the faint of heart. It's an article about a real life tragic murder case and the long road to it getting solved. The writing is phenomenal, it really pulls you in and tugs at your emotions as everything comes together. Also a very long read- so set aside some time if you want to read it all in one go.

Q2. If you could change anything about the earlier chapters for Against The Odds, what would you change and why?

A. The question is what wouldn't I change?

No, but seriously, I think the biggest thing I'd change would be my writing style. I feel like my writing style has changed a lot and improved since chapter 1 and I would like to make everything more consistent. 

But I also know that by the time I upload a few more AtO chapters, my writing style will be even more different, so there's no real benefit to changing the earlier chapters. 

Plotwise- I'm sort of okay with what's up. Yes, I could tighten a few things up, but I don't want to get sucked into redoing the earlier chapters

Q3. Did you see the Fantastic Beasts movie? What did you think?

A. I have not. I've heard some good things about it. And I've seen all sorts of gifs and screencaps from the movie on Tumblr- and it does look rather nice. It's on my To-watch list. I'll get to it eventually.

“Look I keep telling you, I'm not your next leader,” Harry pinched the bridge of his nose, as his fatigue threatened to turn into a full blown headache. “Sasuke dealt the finishing blow to Orochimaru. I'm sure he'll clear everything up when he wakes up. It's been a while since the battle.”

Hideo, the sour faced ninja beside him who had started all the Nidaime nonsense, tensed with wariness.

Harry ignored him and entered the small room that Sasuke had been taken into.

Hedwig turned amber eyes to him from her spot on Sasuke's bed frame and hooted at him.
