● Sarafaie, Magic: Oh my God.. haha.. I literally choke on my food. You are so honest. And we're glad you are comfortable enough to be honest with us. We appreciate it.. ^^
                              
How do you balance making demands on the reader with taking care of the reader?
                              
◎ Dan, Featured Author: To be honest, that balance isn't really something I think about. I write the stories I want to write, those I want to tell. If people enjoy them then that's wonderful, truly. I don't believe in writing to make other people happy though. In my mind, any author or writer who does that is not telling a 온라인카지노게임 that comes from the heart. By telling a 온라인카지노게임 you think others want to read you're selling yourself out - and I'm not for a single second saying that's necessarily a bad thing. What I am saying is that a 온라인카지노게임 written from the heart, one told by an author who loves every single syllable of every word of every sentence they write, is always going to be a better 온라인카지노게임 than one told by an author who decides to write about -insert latest teen heart-throb here- because they want to gain 카지노후기-wide fame.
                              
● Sarafaie, Magic: Ahhh.. yes, I know right.. People nowadays tend to do that..
                              
Anyway, I'm going to ask your little secret..
                              
Are you by any chance happened to hide some sort of secrets or code inside Half-Light that only few people will know or understand?
                              
If you are indeed hiding something on it.. would you like to share it with us? And can you tell us why are you hiding it?
                              
◎ Dan, Featured Author : Haha, I like the way you call it my little secret...
                              
Anyways... There's not really anything particularly secretive about Half-Light. It's fast-paced and confusing - yes, confusing even to me sometimes and I'm the one writing it! - action-packed, and filled with characters who all believe they're doing what's right for any number of different and varied reasons.
                              
One thing the more eager-eyed readers might notice, is that there are a couple of sequences of numbers sort of hidden in plain sight and repeated throughout the course of Half-Light. Is there a reason for this? Well...that remains to be seen!
                              
● Sarafaie, Magic : Ahhh.. now we all know your little secret.. xD
                              
Is there any character in Half-Light that you feel close the most for some reason? If there is, can you tell us who and are you feeling so close with her or him?
                              
◎ Dan, Featured Author : Dan, or Sir Daniel James Colt to use his full title.
                              
To be perfectly honest he was never supposed to feature much, in fact I'd got in mind I was going to kill him off after only a few chapters. He had other ideas though, it seems. And I think that's why I feel a certain closeness to him as it was whilst writing for Dan that I first truly understood the concept of a character taking over his or her own development and leading the 온라인카지노게임, at which point as authors, we are simply along for the ride.
                              
I don't remember who said it, nor do I remember where I read it or the exact phrasing, but there is something that's always stuck with me.
                              
'I always thought -let's call her- Susan was a middle-aged single mother from East London. It turns out she was actually a seventeen year old Japanese schoolgirl with a penchant for death metal and playing with knives.'
                              
Like I say, I don't remember the exact phrasing which is unfortunate but the message there is the same, however it's worded.
                              
● Sarafaie, Magic : Do you read your book review? How do you deal with bad review and good review?
                              
◎ Dan, Featured Author : I do, and I think any writer worth their salt has to do so. Whether you're intending to make a living writing or you're simply doing it as a hobby, the thoughts and opinions of others, be they positive or negative, good or bad, are hugely important.
                              
We all want to improve as writers and I'm no different. I deal with reviews, bad or good, in exactly the same way. I take on board what's been said and generally sit on it for a day or two deciding whether or not to make any changes based on that review.
                              
● Sarafaie, Magic : If you can go back in time to your younger writing self, what would you tell to him?
                              
◎ Dan, Featured Author : I would tell younger me to keep at it, to keep plugging away. It's totally worth the continued effort!
                              
I'd also tell him to make an effort to learn about proper use of grammar and such more quickly than I did! 
                              
● Sarafaie, Magic: This is my last two questions. As you know that our profile is still new to wattpad community. Do you have an input for us to make profile better than now? If you do have, what would it be?
                              
◎ Dan, Featured Author : The most important thing for or any genre/tag/community profile is to keep followers engaged. There's a reason users follow such profiles and it's because of those normal everyday users the profiles exist.
                              
Listen to your followers and take on board what they say but at the same time, don't allow them to dictate how the profile functions and is run.
                              
Above all else, I think it's important not to try too many things at once. The last thing anyone wants is to feel overwhelmed and with profiles like Fanfic , ScienceFiction & like magic, it's very easy to forget that without those folk following the profile, it's really nothing more than a group of Ambassadors talking to themselves!
                              
● Sarafaie, Magic : Wow. Thanks so much for the inputs. We believe as well as other profiles that we are nothing without our followers. And I personally agree with you.. Again, Thanks Dan. ^^
                              
And for the last question and probably the most random one..
                              
Imagine that you are a new addition to the crayon box. What color would you be and why?
                              
◎ Dan, Featured Author : You're welcome, of course!
                              
haha, what colour crayon would I be? Let's say...purple, because why not?!
                              
● Sarafaie, Magic: That's wrap..! Thanks so much for sharing your time, knowledge and view with us.. We have so much fun in this lovely interview.. ^^
                              
◎ Dan, Featured Author : It's totally my pleasure, and was an awful lot of fun for me, too!
