Hi! I'm ScarletEye158, or otherwise known as Amanda

I've decided to create a Meet the Author page so that if you had any questions about my writing... you could ask here


So... ask away!

Hi Amanda!! _{(I know that this is the bye guy, but I wanted him to wave hi!)}

I am here to ask you some questions about your story and then I have some random questions to ask.

Story Questions:

1) What inspired you to write In the Friend Zone? Overcoming Obstacles?

2) What is your favorite Character or ship to write about?

3) Overcoming Obstacles was an awesome story, how long did it take you to write it?

4) In The Friend Zone was a great POV story between Rose and Scorpius. Did you find them hard to write at all? (if so which one of them?)

5) If you could give advice to other Authors what would it be?

Random Questions:

1) If you looked into the Mirror of Erised what would you see and why?

2) If you were faced with a Boggart what would it turn into and why?

3) What would your Patronus be and why?

4) What was your favorite Movie? Book? Character?

5) Which was your least favorite Book? Movie? Character?

Okay this is all that I have to ask for now. When I think of some more I will come back!

Yay, questions!

Hi, Jenn! (that's okay a wave is a wave! )

Story Questions:

1) What inspired you to write In the Friend Zone? Overcoming Obstacles?

Well In The Friend Zone is a show from MTV and I got the idea from there! I always like to think Rose and Scorpius are friends and get together so i just used the show as my plot!

Overcoming Obstacles is for a challenge and I'm writing a story about Neville and Hannah's daughter anyways so I was like eh, "why not?" I for sure wanted Alice to have a big brother so it sort of worked out perfectly (: I don't really know where the idea of the funeral came from but it worked out nicely, didn't it?

2) What is your favorite Character or ship to write about?

I really liked writing Scorpius for In The Friend Zone and for me, Rose/Scorpius is a must, so I'd say they're my favorite to write (: I do like writing my OC Alice for my upcoming story so hopefully you can read her story soon!

3) Overcoming Obstacles was an awesome story, how long did it take you to write it?

It took me quite a while to write actually... I'd say around a month and a half- two months. I had a sort of writers block around the part where the Pastor comes into the story and didn't know how to end it until probably 2 days before I posted it

4) In The Friend Zone was a great POV story between Rose and Scorpius. Did you find them hard to write at all? (if so which one of them?)

Oh, thank you (: I found Scorpius really easy, but Rose was a little difficult... I've read such good stories about her so it took a little while to give her her own personality (:

5) If you could give advice to other Authors what would it be?

I would say to do whatever pleases you. If you are writing a story just to please someone else, then you arent doing yourseld and favors. Write because you really love it and don't change your story for anyone! (:

Random Questions:

1) If you looked into the Mirror of Erised what would you see and why?

I think I'd see myself with a big family of my own with millions of nieces and nephews in a big house crowded with animals! I'd also probably see myself a sucessful nurse in the Childhood Cancer clinic doing all that I can to make them feel better (:

2) If you were faced with a Boggart what would it turn into and why?

It's funny, I used to be able to answer this question so easily, but now i really have to think about it. Spiders are probably one of my biggest fears (I know, just like Ron) But now I'd have to say that losing my family and close friends would probably be it. Also a world with no Harry Potter, that would be quite frightening too! :S


3) What would your Patronus be and why?

I'd have to say a horse! Horses are my favorite animal and I love how graceful and loyal they are. <3

4) What was your favorite Movie? Book? Character?

Movie is a tie between DH part 1 & 2. Those two were brilliant even if they werent perfect . Book is definetely Half-Blood Prince. I love all the romance in that book Character is Ron! Ron has been my favorite since book one and I loved how he stayed the same yet also changed through each book <3

5) What was your least favorite Movie? Book? Character?

I think my least favorite movie was prbably Order of the Phoenix. Seeing Harry so depressed made me upset and I just dont think they did all that good of a job with it. I think my least favorite book would also be Order of the Phoenix. It was just too sad and depressing for me and I really got upset when Sirius died :/ Least favorite character would probably be Umbridge or Voldy. They are both so unforgivably evil and deseve everything they got done to them (: hehe, hope that doesn't sound too mean!

Thanks for all the questions!
