Ask me Anything Answers


Here are the long lost answers of my Ask me Anything post.

Thank you all for the questions!!!


Ruth asked....

What's the story you are working on right now?

Since my laptop crashed, my stories are all gone, so I didn't write a new one. Because it's hard to think of an idea while you had already a story with three chapters, which is now gone. So, I have thought about a new idea for a story, but I haven't found it yet. 

What's your favorite serie?

I have a lot of favourite series, so this one is hard. I love When Calls the Heart, Poldark, Robin Hood and The Musketeers. So, my currently favourite serie right now is When Calls the Heart. 

Which book are you reading?

The Pelican Bride by Beth White, which I finished last Saturday. 

Off all the couples of Gilmore Girls, who's your favorite? *knew this was coming :)*

This one is not so hard though. I love Rory and Jess, Lorelai and Luke and Lane and Zach. Off all of them, I choose Lorelai and Luke, Rory and Jess are coming second.
