Commonly asked questions:
Do you respond to private messages? Yes I do! I respond to 99.99% & if I don't respond to you, it's because my message box is flooded, so just message me again and I'll get back to you ASAP because I love to hear from all of you!!
What inspired you to create Calla? Calla is me in a nutshell. Everything she's said, I've probably said once or twice or 60 times in my life
Can you teach me Russian? No. No. I barley know English as it is, I have ADD and I will get distracted, and I'm a busy busy monkey.
What are your tips for people hoping to get famous/writing their first book? First off, don't write just to get famous. Write for passion! I literally just wrote what I wanted, and it seemed to kinda work out. Write books because you're passionate and make sure you're not too busy to finish these books. Also, for those wanting to get views (I know that's important) make sure you add AS MANY FUCKING TAGS AS POSSIBLE!! Make sure your book cover is EYE CATCHING, make sure your title reflects your plot and will draw people in, and lastly write about something new and FRESH (ironic coming from someone who writes Mafia Porn) but even if it's a cliché subject, add your own personal twist.
What made you write your books? So basically, I write about things I wish could happen in books, and like my ""fantasies"". I've always wanted a strong female lead who you really see flourish into this incredible person, so that helped in creating Calla. Also, my late brother and I had this ridiculous and frankly INSANE humor together, so I incorporated that into my books.
What're you like in real life? What do you do? Aside from making inappropriate jokes at terrible times, I'm 19 and a finance major. I like puppies and writing and movies (Star Wars, Star Trek, Harry Potter, etc.) I play softball, and played ice hockey up until a year ago. I had 4 older brothers. I like throwing things at people, and I have really bad road rage. I live in North Carolina (Raleigh area) and last night I licked a sidewalk.
Is the "I Am Not A Prostitute" series ending? Unfortunately, yes. I don't want to drag it out because how many more adventures can Calla go on? BUTT I am starting a new book soon.
What's a different thing you do in regards to your books? Well. I make too many jokes. ALSOOO I reread my books quite often and reply to A LOTT of comments that y'all make. Trust me, I see almost everything ?
Can we get married? Um...YES!!!! I WOULD LOVE NOTHING MORE!!!
Who is Sinister based off of? WELLL, Sinister is honestly just a dream. He's everything I would love in a man (except for the killing/drugs & being a criminal) Sinister is strong, beautiful, and he would do ANYTHING to protect the love of his life. He's funny, and he is absolutely in love with this girl who just smashed into his life. He's everything I love and more.
When you started this book, did you intend to make it a series? Honestly, I had no idea this book would get this famous. When I first started writing, I begged EVERYONE to read it (yes I was that bitch) and I posted promotion everywhere. When I finally got 1k reads, after what felt like forever, I couldn't believe it. I always loved writing, because it's like creating your own little world. After over a year, I hit 1Million views, and this was the greatest shock to me. It's a great milestone on Wattpad, and something that should make you proud. After I started getting famous, and listening to the passion my readers felt for "I Am Not A Prostitute" and it's characters, I knew I had to write another book. Writing a book is a HUGE deal and it takes so much time, and care. But because of all of you, I knew I had to continue.
What inspired you to write? Life seems a little dull to me. I think we all deserve the excitement and beauty that reading gives us. I simply wanted to make life a little less dull.
How did you come up with Sinisters name? That is an EXCELLENT question. He gave me "Devil" vibes, because of how menacing and blood thirsty he was. It's such a unique name, and I knew that it just completely matched his personality.
LAST THING! I love you guys. Like literally LOVE. Your comments make me smile, because some of y'all are so DAMN FUNNY, and I love hearing from all of you. I would be NOWHERE if it wasn't for every one of you, and I thank you for your support.

I took off running towards Afanas, throwing my arms around him as I quite literally tackled him. I heard him chuckle lowly as he wrapped his muscular arms around me, holding me to him.
"Everything's going to be okay." He whispered in my ear, pulling away from me.
And I believed him. For the first time in my whole life, it truly felt like everything was going to be okay.
I turned to Rachel, her muscular arms were place lightly over her swollen stomach as she smiled at me, her green eyes lighting up.
I didn't hate her. I wasn't even mad at her anymore. I had to understand that everything she did...she did for a reason. Because when it comes to family, you have to be selfish. I knew she felt bad for lying to me, to everyone. But it was her selfishness that made her future with Afanas possible.
I smiled at her, giving her a quick hug as I stared at her belly. It was quite bigger than mine, she was farther along than I was.
"Giving birth is gonna suck." I muttered.
She nodded in agreement, "Yeah. That shit is gonna hurt."
"Do you know the gender yet?" I asked, my eyes floating back to her belly.
Her and Afanas looked at each other, "Yes, it's a girl."
I clapped my hands together in excitement, "Congratulations you guys. You should name her either Calla, or Garbage."
I felt Sinister walking up behind me, wrapping his hands around me as he kissed my cheek.
"Are you guys staying? You know...for good?" I asked, leaning back into the warmth of Sinisters chest.
"Yeah" Afanas grinned "we're here for good."
Sinister spun me around. "I have one last surprise inside for you."
I smiled, "There's literally nothing else I could ever ask for."
"Well fine I can always return it--" He started, but I had already run inside, taking the steps two-at-a-time.
I ran past the double doors, not even bothering to acknowledge the massive entry way or the double grand staircases. But I began screaming in joy as I walked into the great room.
Inside, was a massive saltwater aquarium, with a fucking shark swimming around.
"SINISTER OH MY GOD YOU ACTUALLY BOUGHT ME A FUCKING SHARK HOLY FUCK ME SHIT!!" I squealed as I pressed my face against the glass.
I heard footsteps approaching as Sinister chuckled at me. "It's called a Hound Shark. He'll actually get pretty big. You've been talking about a pet shark for the last few years and I figured...since this is our forever house you might as well have a shark."
"Noodles!!!" I gigged, watching as the grey shark swam around its immense tank, "he's perfect, Sinister."
I wrapped my arms around Sinister's neck, peppering his face with kisses.
He chuckled darkly at my excitement, patting me on the head like a little puppy, I breathed in the smell of his cologne and giggled uncontrollably. Pulling away from him as I pressed my face against the glass, staring at the cute little shark.
"You and my baby are going to get along so well!" I smiled, my breath fogging the glass of the immense aquarium.
"Maybe don't put your baby in a aquarium." Afanas piped up as he stepped into the room, Rachel trailing close behind him.
I ignored Afanas. "We're going to go for so many walks."
I felt Sinister glaring at me, "Calla, why didn't I just buy you a fucking dog? You can't walk a shark."
I shrugged, not willing to let them ruin my fun, as a thought came over me.
"What about Gabriel and Sebastian? What's going to happen to them? Do they know we're here? Do they know we're alive?"my voice started to fill with panic.
I couldn't lose them. Sebastian, one of my best friends who had risked everything for me. And Gabriel, my mother, who I would never stop annoying. They were such a big part of me, I couldn't afford to lose them.
Sinister placed an arm on my back, his eyes glittering down on me, "They know, Calla. I made the decision to make Sebastian the leader of the Russian Mafia. Although he may have been a traitor, working for your brother, he has been one of my most loyal men. And Gabriel will be his second in command."
I breathed out a breath I didn't even know I was holding. "That's good. I'm really happy for them."
"They will do great" Sinister snaked his arm around my waist "they're coming over later. As a kind of last hurrah, though I'm sure we will cross paths with them again."
I nodded, and looked around me. This house was beautiful, and big. So big that I felt so small, even surrounded by my friends.
Sinister stared at me, his eyes wide with worry, and I suddenly realized that I was crying. I didn't know why. I should be thankful. Instead I only felt guilt. Guilt that Sinister gave up his life for me. Guilt that I made him give up everything, for me. For a little girl that had nothing to offer.
"You gave up your whole life for me." I stated, tears trickling down my face like rain.
"No, Calla." He raised my chin with his finger so that I stared directly into his beautiful, icy eyes.
I sniffed as he pulled me to him, holding me so tight, as if he thought I would drift away if it wasn't for his arms that held me.
"You gave me my life" He whispered to me "If it wasn't for you, I would have nothing. I would be nothing. You gave me my humanity, my humility, and your love. Don't ever think that I had to sacrifice for you, because it was you who gave me something, something more than I could ever ask for."
He pressed his lips to my forehead, "You gave me a family, Calla."
It was only then, that I realized he was crying too.
***
Our room was incredible. It was massive, with a huge king sized bed, and a balcony that looked over the shores of our isolated home. Gabriel and Sebastian would be here soon. And I couldn't help but think they were coming to say goodbye.
I didn't want to say goodbye.
