Lemoona asked Kasie West:

Hello. I really like your books. P.S. I like you was one of the reasons I got into reading. I’m one of those people who don’t like sequels, which is why I like that you’re not writing any at the moment. Honestly, I don’t like them because I like it to end where it does, as a perfect happily ever after. Anyways, I wanted to ask what got you into writing? And where did you learn the skills?

Kasie West Thank you! I'm so happy you enjoyed P.S. That's always great to hear. I am a lifelong reader so I feel like I've been studying the art of writing through reading for many many years. I didn't know I liked to write, however, until about 12 years ago when I got the idea for a book and decided to try to write it. That's when I learned that I loved to write. I needed lots and lots of practice at it, but I loved it. And so I kept trying and getting better with each attempt until I finally wrote a book that a publisher bought. And I haven't stopped writing (or reading) since.
