Spotlight: ItzMegan73

Hey, its been a while so here are a two author interviews for you! I'd like to welcome ItzMegan73 to The Electronic Bookshelf!

Of her stories, comes one of my favorite stories, The Cannabean Betrothal. In her story she's created an entire culture and way of life that at first was hard get into because it's all new but once you embrace the Cannabean culture it's an addictive story, with a well written plot and in-depth characters.

Summary: Edward has immersed himself in the Cannabean way to ward off the hurt of a life-changing experience; but an unexpected betrothal teaches him how little he knows about life. There is no abuse in this story.

Q: What did you think of Breaking Dawn?

I actually didn't mind Breaking Dawn. It was a nice reprieve after the horror

of Eclipse - which was my least favorite of the saga.

Q: Favorite Twilight couple?

Edward & Bella

Q: Which movie did you like more, Twilight or New Moon? Why?

I liked Twilight more. The story was more endearing. And the re-watchability

factor was off the charts. New Moon? Not so much.

Q: How did you come up with the idea of the Cannabean world?

The story just kind of popped into my head one day.

Q: What has been the inspiration behind the story?

Actually, it was a photo/still of Edward & Bella during the prom scene in

Twilight. She'll looking up at him quite demurely and he's looking down at

her, like a protector or a man very much in "charge". They look so young in

that picture, but mature. It's hard to explain, but that was the inspiration

for the story. They look like they're at a wedding in the pic and so I just

ran with it.

Q: Would you say that it’s been easier this story because you write all the

rules, or harder because you have to create a whole new world?

Hmm...sometimes it's easier, but the fact checking is tedious.

Q: What’s your favorite type of FanFic to read?

I don't really read much fanfic, but all stories I like are very different

from one another, so I don't know if I have a certain "type".

Q: Is there any type you never read? Why?

I don't read any other pairings beside Edward & Bella. They hold no interest

for me.

Q: Do you have a specific writing process?

All I need is quiet and a computer and an Internet connection. That's pretty

much it.

Q: What’s the hardest part about writing for you?

Finding the time.

Q: Who was your favorite character to write? Why?

Anthony (ARS) because he's completely mine and there are no pre-conceived

notions. TCB Bella is a close second though. I love her innocence. She hasn't

had any experiences to cause her to be jaded, and therefore she plays no

games. I love that about her.

(if it’s different from above) What character are you most proud of? Has

grown the most, in your eyes?

As far as growth...hmm, I was going to say TCB Edward, but Edward in the Tutor

probably has him beat by a longshot.

Q: Is there any music you like to listen to when you write?

No. I like quiet.

Q: Favorite author outside of fanfiction?

Beverly Cleary. She taught me how to love the written word.

Q: Working on anything new, planning anything after this story, or just taking

one thing at a time?

Oh, I have a few stories itching to be told...

Q: Anything else you’d like to say about writing fanfiction or your story?

I think I'll put anyone who is reading this out of their misery by stopping

now!

Aw, too harsh :) I know I enjoyed reading this and learning more about ItzMegan73 and TCB, as I'm sure many of you will.
