Author Braelyn Wilson
A Rockstar Romance to read now
Hi! My name is Braelyn Wilson. I am an eighteen-year-old indie author who mainly writes romance and YA/NA fiction at the moment, but through the years, would eventually love to tap into thriller. I love romance movies and shows, country music and classic 70s – 90s rock, and I have a Dr. Pepper addiction (if that’s noteworthy).
I am very close with my siblings (I am a twin, but my younger siblings are 16 months younger, and they are also twins), and I have a very strong desire to touch people’s hearts in a way they didn’t know it could ever be touched.
My goal through my writing is to have people better understand that they are human and that things they may suffer through, so do my characters, so do real people. You are never alone, even if you feel lonely. You are always seen, you are always heard, even if you’ve been told otherwise.
My characters are meant to stay stagnant in your brain as an everyday reminder of human nature and love and conflict and that we will experience life, even the most horrible, complicated parts of it.
America’s all-American it girl and nineties sensation, Honey James McCarthy, and renowned heart-throb and notable movie star, Fourden Reeves, have finally seen each other once again after being away from both the limelight and each other.
Years later after the ending of their once-famed show, More Than a Memory, something entrancing remains between the two. While accepting her award for her new movie and winning Best Actress, her fans theorized that her thank you speech honored Reeves.
Interviewer, Iowa Marsh, has made it her career’s purpose to dive deeper into the escapades and affairs that potentially transpired between the two co-stars.
How I got into reading:
Oddly and funnily enough, I was never too much of a reader growing up. I’ve always had a tough time focusing and the main times I’d ever be reading was in school. I feel most people can relate to this, but I always found the books chosen in the school curriculum boring. So when I got older and started to read books that the school was not shoving down my throat and dove into genres that piqued my interest, I found my love for reading there. I would say my freshman-year teacher helped me realize my love for the English subject, as well as reading overall.
What made me want to become a writer:
I wish I could say there was a turning point, a moment, or a lightbulb going off that said ‘ding, ding’, ding’. But there just never was. I’ve always gone through life having very clear goals in mind and I knew, from a very young age, where I saw my future going.
I wanted to become a counselor because I knew that there were people struggling through the same things I struggled through, except couldn’t come to terms with their feelings and verbalize them as well as I could.
When COVID hit in 2020, when I was forced to stay home, my love for writing skyrocketed. I no longer wanted to go to college and become a counselor, unfortunately, even though helping people would forever be a passion of mine. I simply realized that I could help people in endless ways, one of them including writing. I could reach more people through it, anyway.
Where do I get my inspiration:
I wouldn’t say I have gotten any direct inspiration from many books, but I watch a lot of TV shows and I have always fallen in love with the way they tell the story of love and I’ve always admired chemistry and unspoken, unrequited love, and love triangles galore. I would say specifically The Vampire Diaries and Scandal and Grey’s Anatomy have very much inspired me, in the sense that I very much hope the love I write about in my stories could be comparable to the love in those shows.
What are my goals for the future:
I’m a very ambitious person who always wants to reach for the sky (even though I do, at times, lack very much discipline, as well as motivation). I have many goals for the future. I would love to have novels upon novels out, I would love to have a supernatural series out (stay tuned), and I would love to have my books turned into movie adaptions.
Career-wise, for my writing, I want what any author wants: I want people to feel things. I want my writing to touch people. But in a broad, genuine sense, my main goal in life is to grow with the people I love and travel the world and meet new people, but having kids and having a large family… is specifically what I want most out of life.
