Interview with Chalie Teh ~ Don't Just Speak Love

Today we are interviewing Chalie The, Author of Don't Just Speak Love

 

Hope you enjoy!

 

 

1) Have you written any other novels in collaboration with other writers?

Nope, this is my first book!

 

2) Why do you write?

This really got me thinking. For Don’t Just Speak Love, it was mostly because I wanted the characters I’d been dreaming about to come to life. I wanted to know how they would wound up in their lives. I had very vague ideas of them when they first formed in my head, and it was only when I began penning them that I got to discover so much more about them. Getting to know them had been incredibly toiling but fulfilling.

 

3) Where do the your ideas come from?

They can come from anywhere—silly or serious conversations, movies, real life events, and music etcetera—at any time, but they usually come to me when it’s dark and quiet. I have a hard time falling asleep at night because they always take up too much of my mind.

 

4) What is the hardest thing about writing?

Rushing through other things in life in order to get down to putting ideas into words as quickly as possible.

 

5) For your own reading, do you prefer eBook's or traditional paper/hard back books?

I like both. I don’t really mind what forms the books are in; I’m more concerned about the contents.

 

6) Listener or talker?

Both.

 

7) What do you miss most about childhood?

Can’t really think of anything. To be honest, I don’t miss childhood.

 

8) You were bitten by a vampire, now what? (Or werewolf)

Now I can’t eat my favorite food anymore, so I’ll be very sad.

 

9) If you could be invisible for a day, what would you do?

Run to the backstage of a Justin Bieber concert—it’s the dream of every Belieber—and watch him get ready for his show. Seeing him up close would be so awesome. He’s an incredible person. Talented and genuine. Just someone really amazing.

 

10) Sing in the rain or dance in the streets?

Sing in the rain. Though it would be great to have someone teach me how to dance.

 

11) What is something you cannot live without?

My baby girl. Her name is Blythe, and she’s two years old. She’s a Shih Tzu dog, by the way.
