Amaal Osman asked Charlaine Harris:

Hi Ms Harris! I would like to know what inspired you to write, and why you write the genres your write. What makes someone successful? Thank you.

Charlaine Harris I always wanted to be a writer, because I love reading. I switch genres to keep myself fresh and challenged. The answer to your last question is harder. If you're asking what makes someone a successful writer, the answer would be if you achieve your goal in writing the book, if it says what you wanted it to say. If you are asking what makes you a successful person, I think being true to yourself and treating other people kindly is a great start.
