FAQs

Well, I’m not limited to those two categories as I’ve done opinion pieces and angle pieces on a number of topics, but I got into writing in about the 11th grade during a school project. In the project we had to talk about what career we’d like to get in to and I decided to choose Journalism, I got in touch with a few journalists, loved the process of interviewing each of the journos and realised that telling the story behind a person is what I’d love to do. Ever since then I focused on that aspect and it’s been years later and I’m still doing it!

This is always tough because each person is great to talk to but if I had to choose I loved interviewing Debora Patta, Jeannie D and Cody Simpson. Oh, and let us not forget Gregg Sulkin (Wizards of Waverly Place; Pretty Little Liars) who said he loves my accent and wants to marry a South African. I also interviewed him on my Birthday!

All of the time. I’m a very shy person, which some people can never believe, but I hide my nerves and compose myself because I know I need to get a good interview. Normally once the interview has started my nerves tend to die down a bit and I’m able to feel a lot better.

Wow, so many! Some personal favourites are: Frozen; Big Hero 6; The Little Mermaid; 101 Dalmatians; Tangled; Aladdin; Cinderella; Sleeping Beauty; Peter Pan; Beauty and the Beast and The Princess and the Frog. I actually blogged about my five favourite Disney films, take a look here.

I have so many but my special favourites include: Sailor Moon; Shugo Chara; Death Note; Tokyo Mew Mew; Pokemon; Digimon; Love Live! School Idol Project (NozoEli for life!); Say ‘I Love You’; Ao Haru Ride; Genshiken; Shakugan no Shana; Ouran High School Host Club; No Game No Life; White Album 2; Nana; Love Hina; Negima and every Studio Ghibli movie.

See the anime I have watched on my profile at My Anime List!

Again, so many but my favourites list is shorter compared to anime: Mars; Fushigi Yugi; Princess Ai; Gakuen Alice; Strobe Edge; Tokyo Mew Mew and Negima.

Let’s be honest, I’m not all that good but I appreciate all the compliments I get on my artwork! I’m self-taught and practice a lot – or in my case, as often as I can. I used to gift illustrated caricatures to my local and international interviewees quite often – and still do – which really contributed in improving my skills over time. Practice makes perfect after all! Just always keep at it and you’ll see improvement!
