Jusobele

Penname: Jusobele

Fanfiction.net Profile Link


Jusobele is a sweet lady and a talented writer. I had the pleasure of chatting with her a few times before the interview, and she is so fun.
She is a very fast updater (which let’s face it, we ALL love that, Lol), and is writing one of the best Jacob/Bella stories I have ever read, called The Ties that Bind Us. I also recently started to read her completed Jacob/Bella fic, Worthy of the Wolf. It was great getting to know her, and I hope you all enjoy it as well. :)
(This was her first interview, so Yay! Honestly, everyone who’s agreed to these interviews, I do an extremely nerdy fangirl happy dance jig. Lol!)

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Astrid: Hi Jusobele!
Jusobele: Hi Astrid!
Astrid: Thank you so much for letting me interview you.
Jusobele: Not a problem. Thank you for asking me.
Astrid: You ladies have been so kind and great with being tortured by me. It means a lot. :)
Jusobele: :) Torture away!

Astrid: Cool.
Okay, so how long have you been reading Twilight fanfiction?
Jusobele: I can give you an exact date on that. October 30th, 2011. I know that because I was in labor at the hospital.
Astrid: Wow. How did you find it?
Jusobele: Well a friend of mine had loaned me the books and DVDs when I was at the horrid end stage of pregnancy. I was sooo gutted after reading Breaking Dawn. My friend, who is Team Sparkles, suggested if I was so (hormonally Lol) upset about Jake’s ending, I should read fanfiction.
Astrid: Lol.
Jusobele: A couple of days after that conversation, I went into labor. My hubby was timing my contractions on an app on his phone and refused to talk to me because he was concentrating. Lol. And I started googling things on my phone.
Astrid: Oh my God. Seriously?
Jusobele: I remember my friend’s advice, and yeah, I was thinking about Jacob while in labor. And I discovered fanfiction. Lol. True story.
Astrid: Wow. Lol. Love it.
Jusobele: Yeah, a bit nuts.
Astrid: And Epic.
Jusobele: Lol. Changed my life.

Astrid: That’s one that I have never heard before. Truly awesome.
How long have you been writing fanfiction?
Jusobele: I started my first fic in January... so about four months.
Astrid: Really?
That’s great. Your stories have been well received. Congratulations. :)
Jusobele: Aw, thank you.

Astrid: Did you read all of S.M.’s books? Which one was your favorite and why?
Jusobele: I read them all, although I must admit it was a battle to finish Breaking Dawn. My favorite would definitely have to be Eclipse. I loved watching Jacob develop in Eclipse. I really wish there had been more development along the same lines in Breaking Dawn.
The wolf pack in general were great in Eclipse.
So yeah, all about the wolves. Lol.
Astrid: I remember Twilight and New Moon pretty clearly. I might have to re-read Eclipse. It seems to be a favorite amongst Team Wolf ladies as far as the pack goes.
Jusobele: I can see why it would be. New Moon too.
But I think in Eclipse, Jake in particular, seemed to be finding himself a bit and that was what I enjoyed about it.
Astrid:  I guess Eclipse isn’t too fresh in my memory because of the part where Bella broke him down even further when he was hurt after the battle. I was so pissed that I threw the book across the room.
I do agree though, from the bits and pieces that come to mind, Jacob did seem to be finding himself in Eclipse.
Jusobele:  Ah. I threw Breaking Dawn when he imprinted, Lol.
Astrid:  Ugh. The spawn
Jusobele: *shudders*

Astrid:  lol That brings me to my next question.

What did you think about Bella as the Twilight Saga progressed?
Jusobele:  Oooh, now there's a question.
I liked her initially in Twilight, up until she became strangely dependent on Edward. Which never made sense to me. She had been portrayed as being this girl who had looked after her own mother, which to me means she must be quite independent and self-sufficient. So the dependency, which happened very quickly, seemed a bit ... I don't know, out of character? That struck me in Twilight. And then of course the whole idea of such a young woman wanting to die and throw away her entire future, just made me worry for her. New Moon... the "withdrawal" phase, ugh! Didn't like that sort of dependency again.
Astrid:  I understand that.
Jusobele:  Then the side we saw when Jacob was helping her out of that depression was a bit more believable I thought. But I'm afraid from the moment she went to Volterra, I found most of her decisions silly and selfish. Right to the bitter end. I think I was supposed to feel proud of her by the end of Breaking Dawn, but personally I was still just yelling at her for her choices.
Astrid:  You have shined a light on something that I did not think about. (It’s hard to find something that I haven’t thought of since I pretty much hate every decision she made when she went ballistic in Twilight and begged Edward to NOT leave her after James attack). She did take care of her mother, SM made it a point to say that, but then, like you said, the independence streak was gone.

What the fuck happened to the self sufficient girl, that had to grow up fast, when Edward Corpse boy Cullen came into the picture?
Jusobele:  Exactly! And allowed herself to be manipulated not just by him, but his sister.
Astrid:  Which further proves my Vampire-Dazzle-Sparkle-Dust Theory (don't mind the name, it's a work in progress theory.)
Jusobele:  Lol!
Astrid:  Ugh! I hated Alice... a lot... That bitch just walked right up to her and said, "Hey, we're going to be BFF's. I saw it. Now let me dress you in clothes that you hate because that's what best friends do."
Jusobele:  Yes, I think again for me, Eclipse is kind of the stand-out book where the extent of Ed/Alice's manipulation is shown, alongside what Jacob is prepared to do for the girl he loves. I have to wonder, what in the hell happened in Breaking Dawn?
Astrid:  Jacob pulls at my heartstrings. Every. Single. Time.
Jusobele:  Yeah.
Astrid: When she had her vision during their kiss and tells him it wasn't enough! That that's why she didn't want to acknowledge her love for him!
*yanks hair*
GAH!
Jusobele:  I KNOW! God!
Astrid:  *deep breaths* Okay.
Jusobele:  You have death, or you have a life and family with Jacob Black.
Astrid: Lol.
Jusobele: Now let's think about that one for a moment...
Astrid: No brainer for me; I'll take the hot wolf who's devoted to me please.
Jusobele: Yup

Astrid: Keeping with the previous question, what did you think about Edward and the Cullen Coven as a whole throughout the books? (Progressively as well.)
Jusobele:  Well Edward intrigued me initially. There was definitely a kind of mystery built up around him. However, when the extent of the co-dependency thing started to show, I wanted to run away, Lol.

I think the coven as a whole, really and truly needed to get the hell away from Forks. They were responsible for a young girl being - what will I call it - drugged/dazzled/dazed/tricked by one of their own, and they were messing with lives of the local boys by forcing them to phase. All of which strikes me as going against the, "We care about humans..." personas. At least Jasper was honest.

I don't know, the entire, "Let's welcome Bella into our family," thing never sat easily with me. Rosalie I suppose was honest too. The rest were increasingly selfish.
Astrid:  Me either. If anything, as soon as Edward let their secret slip, before Bella could get a grasp on "what" they were, they should have bounced up out of Forks.
Jusobele:  I agree.
Astrid:  All that bullshit about being scared of the Volturi and consequences, that was crap.

They didn't care. Even Carlisle, who was there first and made the treaty, that fucker knowingly brought them all back to Forks. Was he stupid enough to think the gene died out? Really? So it never occurred to him that they should leave when he saw a very alive and well Billy BLACK? *cue eye rolls please*
Jusobele:  Lol. Yeah, I know. Edward did say they were selfish. I guess he was right about that.
Astrid:  They were all dicks in one way or another
Jusobele:  Lol.
Astrid:  I can't fault Rosalie or Jasper too much, because as you said, they were both honest. Although once Rosalie went Pro-Spawn, I wanted to strangle her too. Even if I did understand her motives.
Jusobele:  Yes, she was a bit much with that, although I can understand why with everything she went through and everything she thought she'd given up. She never had a choice! I do have sympathy for Rosalie. But she's the only one.
Astrid:  Honestly, I think Carlisle made a mistake with some of his "family". Edward was too young in my opinion
Jusobele:  Yes. Definitely.
Astrid:  When they turn, they are who they were as humans, only amplified. According to S.M.'s rules. So Edward was a 17 yr old virgin from the Victorian Era? That's like a recipe for disaster when you toss his ass into the 21st century.
Jusobele:  Lol. Yes it is. A century’s worth of repression
I do have a massive problem though with Carlisle making the decision for them.
Not one of them had a choice; he thought it would be best for them. Is he God?
Astrid:  That was supposedly humane.
Jusobele:  I know, but that humane argument... Personally I think it would have been more humane to not condemn someone to an eternity of bloodlust.
Astrid:  I agree. Can you imagine? Being near death, then the feeling of being burned alive consuming you?
Jusobele:  For 3 days.
Astrid:  That sounds a whole lot worse than giving in to the light at the end of the tunnel.
Jusobele:  Lol. Yes it does. I'll take that light thanks.

Astrid: Lol.
Do you think there was any part in any of the books where Bella should have just walked away from Edward? Which one stands out?
Jusobele:  Oh dear lord, where do I start...
First, I think when the whole Phoenix thing with James happened, self-preservation really should have kicked in there.
Astrid:  Yes it should have.
Jusobele:  Then again with the Volturi-Suicide attempt. He left her, yet she ran to save him?
But there are also: disabling her truck so she couldn't visit her best friend; lying to her numerous times; and the one that stands out the most is dragging her to visit her mom and not letting her know Victoria was there as a threat to her and her family... Um, when he kept trying to force her to marry him... Force is maybe too strong... Co-erce? Even though she had never wanted to get married.
Astrid:  Manipulate.
Sex for Marriage.
Jusobele:  Good word. Yes, absolutely.
Astrid:  That sickened me.
Jusobele:  Yeah.
Astrid:  I kept thinking, "Bitch! Go to La Push! Jacob will touch you 69 ways from Sunday!"
Jusobele:  Lol. Yeah, I know. If she had only given him a chance in Eclipse, he could've shown her how a real man touches a woman.
*sigh*
Not all that pushing away nonsense.
Astrid:  I know right.
Jusobele:  Silly girl.
Astrid:  He could have hung it to her in the garage.
Jusobele:  Lol!
Astrid:  Up against the wall.
Jusobele:  Anywhere really.
Astrid:  Yum.
Jusobele:  Sideways. Lol.
Astrid:  On the Rabbit... Lmfao!
I think that part is the one that I don't understand with Edward fans. Victorian Era mannerisms aside, they were totally okay with him offering sex if she married him? I mean that's manipulation out the ass. Yet no one was concerned with it?
Jusobele:  I know, that one really kind of stuck with me. It is so manipulative.
She's a healthy teenage girl wanting to experiment with her first boyfriend.
It was all his terms, rules, boundaries, only after marriage.
Astrid:  Yeah, all she wanted was to bone a little.
Jusobele: LMAO! Back to Eclipse; against the wall/Rabbit in the garage.
Astrid:  Why didn't he suggest Jacob then? Like he did in Breaking Dawn? Oooh now there's a thinker.
Jusobele:  Oooh. See? We should've written it ourselves.
Astrid:  *raises hand* I KNOW WHY!
Jusobele:  Tell me tell me!
Astrid:  Because she wasn't spoiled with his rotted corpse dick/seed. He branded her, in Breaking Dawn he wouldn't have cared because he hit it first.
Jusobele:  Lol!
Astrid:  Lol!
Now if jake had slung that big cock to her in Eclipse? In the tent? Or hell even at her graduation party, we would have been reading an entirely different story.
Jusobele:  Oh yes we would've been. And I wouldn't be haunted by “what if’s”. Lol.
Astrid:  Lol! Ikr.
Jusobele:  Then just imagine how Bella feels. All those regrets.
Astrid:  Eeep! I know. And married to a two pump chump for the rest of her existence.
*bleh*
Jusobele:  Lol!
Astrid:  I think that would get old quick. That's why S.M. knocked her up.
Jusobele:  Lmao!

Astrid:  Lol!
If Jacob wasn’t an option for Bella, who do you think (out of all the pack members, imprinting doesn’t exist) would have been a good match for her?
Jusobele:  Oh that's a good question...
I think either Embry or Paul. I know they're total opposites in a lot of ways. But that's kind of why I chose them. I think Paul could loosen Bella up a bit. A lot actually. And she might be good for him too. But Embry, I think is like her really - a bit shy, a bit insecure maybe. If I had to choose one, probably Embry.
Astrid:  That's interesting... My pick for Bella would have been Paul. Lol.
Jusobele:  I can see why.
Astrid:  *dreamy sigh*
Jusobele:  Lol. I think Paul and Bella could have an interesting opposites attract thing going on with sparks flying.
Astrid:  The whole love/hate thing... Mmm...
Jusobele:  Absolutely. Whereas Embry and Bella = just plain sweet... Oh hell, any freaking wolf would do me. Lol.
Astrid:  PaulPaulPaulPaul... Lol.
Jusobele:  He is a badass wolf.
Astrid:  Fucking Sexy.
Jusobele:  Definitely sexy as hell.
Astrid:  See?
Jusobele:  Lol!

Astrid:  Do you remember the first fanfiction you read? What did you like the most about it?
Jusobele:  Oh yes I remember.
It was dragonfly's Need You. Whatever I typed into that search engine while I was having labour contractions worked, because it delivered a fine Alpha Jake. Which was what I liked about it.
I read it in installments over the next few weeks (4am feeds, that kind of thing), and sent her a squealy fangirly review when I'd read as far as it was written at that point.
Astrid:  Lol. I’ve read that one too, and was thoroughly happy that I did.
Jusobele:  Yeah it's a great story with an impressive Jacob.

Astrid:  It is. :)
Out of the fanfics you have written, which one is your favorite? Why?
Jusobele:  Oh I'm gonna have to say the current one, The Ties That Bind Us.
My first one, and I will always love it because it was my first, I was sooo unbelievably nervous about. I was so scared about posting it and so uptight about reviews. So I didn't fully relax and enjoy it. And then 32, it kind of got under my skin like an itch. I do love that fic, but it was like an annoying itch, Lol. Whereas Ties, has been a joy to write. I'm more relaxed, more willing to get out my comfort zone with some of the themes, and not so bothered by what other people think of it. And I think it shows in my writing.
Astrid:  That's really great. I know reviews can be harsh.
Jusobele:  Lol. Oh yes they can. They can also be amazing
Astrid:  I think thats why I get so nervous before reading a review. You never know what its gonna be.
Jusobele:  Yeah that's true. And it's amazing because you can get 20 or 30 positive reviews for a chapter, but it will always be that one critical or negative one that sticks in your mind.
Astrid:  Pfft! 20 or 30, I wish! Lol! I'm happy as a cat eating shit if I get one good review.
Jusobele:  Aww, Lol!
Astrid:  Sorry about the odd term, I type how I speak. :)
Jusobele:  Lmao!

Astrid:  Oh I like this next question. The answers are always interesting.
Do you find it hard to write lemons? What helps you when you write sex scenes? Music, movies, tumblrs, etc.
Jusobele:  Yeah that's a good one...
Well my first lemon, I was terrified to write. I drank two glasses of wine before sitting down to write it. Then I sent that chapter to my beta at the time (who was fantastic) and when I said whatever it was about them walking somewhere the next day, she said something like, "I think he'll be carrying her after all that." Lol. So I went back and toned it down a bit.
Then after that for a while I would have a glass of wine before writing lemons, but now it's just something else that I write at 6am/8am/10pm /whenever. So hubby will come in and ask, “Are you writing porn again?” and I'll say, “Yeah, but I'll iron your shirts when I'm done don't worry.”
Astrid:  Lmao!
Jusobele:  I don't really use anything like music or whatever, it's just an overactive imagination. Lol.
Astrid:  That's interesting.
Jusobele:  Yeah, I found it tough at first. But after I'd written a few, it just got easier and easier to write.

Astrid:  In the movies, did you agree with the wolf pack casting? Who would you have cast differently?
Jusobele:  Another great question...
I agreed with some, not with others. I can't see anyone other than Taylor playing Jacob.
Astrid:  *swoon* Same here.
Jusobele:  He actually made me Team Jacob. After reading NM, I was team Bella, I wanted her to sort her head out and get away from the dead guy.
Astrid:  Lol.
Jusobele:  But then I watched the DVD, and Jacob was just brought to life by Taylor. The kitchen scene, then him begging her not to go; I had read the book and I knew how it would play out, but i was like, “Nooooo! Stay with him!”
So yeah, getting back to your question, Jacob was cast well. Lol.
Astrid:  Lol.
Jusobele:  And I like Alex as Paul, he plays the bad boy really well.
Astrid:  GAH! Ikr! *fans self*
Jusobele:  I think Kiowa as Embry too was quite good, although I think he should've had more screen time. Sam and Jared - Indifferent. But dear lord what were they thinking with Quil and Seth???
Astrid:  (I just choked on my soda.)
Jusobele:  Lol.
Astrid:  I couldn't agree more. I mean I include Jared there too, but Quil? He was supposed to be stocky, solid, before he phased. So after? He would have been built like a brick house. Big, burly man.
Jusobele:  Exactly.
Astrid:  And Seth? Ugh... Again, in Eclipse, Booboo looked 10.
Jusobele:  Seth was baby wolf in the movies. So not how it was supposed to be. Yeah I don't know, I don't think whoever cast them read the books.
Astrid:  Either that or they went to Walmart after days of failed casting and said, "Hey! Wanna play in a movie?"
Jusobele:  Lol!
Astrid:  I have My Seth that I picture... and yeah... THAT is how I pictured him. Pretty fuckin' close... Wanna see?
Jusobele:  Hell yeah. Lol.
Astrid:  I'll show you My Seth and Embry.
Jusobele:  Cool.
Astrid:  So far those are the two I replaced in my head. Still working on the rest
Link to My Seth
Jusobele:  HOLY FUCK!... Seth for me I think. Maybe on closer inspection. Embry would be fine too. Lol!
Astrid:  They do it for me. In more ways than one. *grins*
Jusobele:  Lol!

Astrid:  Favorite Wolf? And why?
Jusobele:  Favourite wolf has got to be Jacob. He's a mixture of just being incredibly funny and sweet, with having enough attitude to be sexy. I wish he'd been developed more though, not left as the almost-a-man after Eclipse and then kind of caricature-ized.
Astrid:  What do you mean?
Jusobele:  Well, like I said earlier, in Eclipse I felt he was sort of finding himself, coming to terms with his life as a wolf and growing up. But then in Breaking Dawn, I thought he was reduced too much; much less than he should have been. So his point of view in the middle seemed inconsistent sometimes with how he had been portrayed in New Moon and Eclipse. Then reading his character after the birth of the spawn made me want to gag. In what alternate universe would a virile Alpha wolf imprint on a child that was half mortal enemy? It kind of almost seemed like his character had been built up, then smashed down again, and that upsets me.
Astrid:  I can see what you mean. He never got a true chance to grow up. And then when he was finally free of Bella, because she turned, he's tied to her again? By imprinting on her spawn?
Jusobele:  *shudders*
Astrid:  Gross.
Jusobele:  It is totally gross.

Astrid:  And now that we're talking about imprinting... What do you think about imprinting?
Jusobele:  Oh I actually like imprinting, but I would have two conditions. Firstly, and most importantly, please, no children. And secondly, nobody should get hurt. I didn't like the Sam/Emily/Leah triangle at all. I think if imprinting is just a natural thing, where the wolf is drawn to someone who is absolutely right for them, and that person helps the wolf fulfill his/her potential and be exactly what they need, then I love the concept and I want to be imprinted on by a wolf. Lol. But again, no children.

Astrid:  What was your reaction when you read Jacob imprinting on Renesmee in Breaking Dawn?
Jusobele:  It was so horrible that I didn't actually get it at first. Honestly, I read the end of his point of view and I can't remember exactly how it was described, but I did not understand that he had imprinted. I think it was just so awful that I blocked it, Lol. It was only when it was back to Bella's point of view and she was going through the process of working it out that I did too. And I yelled. Then when it was spelled out in black and white that yeah that was what had happened, I threw the book across the room. And I have to give it to SM, it's the only book I have ever thrown.
Astrid:  I threw each book at random times and even tossed some. Which ended in me having to buy them again to finish reading.
Jusobele:  Lol! No I still have the same copy that I threw. Complete with broken spine. It was my friend's book and I had to replace it for her. Lmao.

Astrid:  Lol.
Did you have an issue with any of the other imprinted pairs? Did they all make sense to you? (Sam/Emily, Jared/Kim, Paul/Rachel, Quil/Claire)
Jusobele:  Jared and Kim I have no problems with, they seem natural and realistic. Paul and Rachel too, I get them. Sam and Emily, I don't like the way it happened. I don't dislike Emily's character as such, but Sam was engaged to her cousin and come on, what girl would do that to her cousin/friend? Quil/Claire, Nooooo!
Astrid:  Quil/Claire, SM was setting us up for Breaking Dawn. Testing the waters, seeing how people would react to a toddler imprint.
Changing topics because that one makes me mad. Lol.
Are you reading any fanfics now?
Jusobele:  I honestly don't read while I'm writing. It's not that I don't want to, it's a time thing. I only have short periods of time each day and when I do have a bit of uninterrupted time, I write. But I have a list of fics I want to read as soon as Ties is finished. We're going on a 2 week vacation in July and I've promised hubby I won't write, Lol. So I've decided that's my reading time. :)

Astrid: Do you have any favorite fanfiction writers? From when you did read some.
Jusobele:  Well I have to be blushingly honest and say that I really haven't read that much fanfiction. I do like dragonfly's writing. She has some lovely fics. And August Schaffer has a whole bunch that I have kind of skimmed over and really want the time to sit and read properly. And then there's the whole list that I want to work through on vacation. Lol.
Astrid:  August is amazing too. She has some great AH stories.
Jusobele:  Yeah she seems to have really original ideas.

Astrid:  When writing, what do you find easier to write, one shots or multi chapters?
Jusobele:  Oh, good question again. God.
Um, no I can't decide, honestly. If the idea is there, it's there. It writes itself, whether that's a huge multi chapter or just a few thousand words. It's all about the idea and the depth that naturally goes with that idea.
That's a rubbish answer, sorry.
Mind you, I've only written two one shots and I then developed one into a multi chap so maybe that means multi chapters.
Astrid:  I think writers have their strengths as far as that question. Some like to take the time to develop their story and draw it out, not in a bad way. Others are more comfortable with short one shots that have a main idea, a small plot.
Jusobele:  Oh I can understand that. I've said so many times before, I just have a hyperactive muse that Never. Shuts. Up. Lol.

Astrid: I like your muse. She's cool. Lol.
Are you entirely Team Wolf?
Jusobele:  Yes. No vamps. I'm a wolf girl
I mean Emmett makes me laugh sometimes and I could be persuaded to have a conversation with Jasper, but there ain't a wolf I would kick out of bed.

Astrid:  Lol! Fair enough.
How did you come up with your penname?
Jusobele:  It's the first two letters of each of my four kids' names, starting with the eldest.

Astrid:  That's sweet. :)
Favorite published book? Published Author?
Jusobele:  I have so many favourites... I think about my book cupboard and think about the one that looks the most battered (other than Breaking Dawn, but I'm talking about through use, not abuse Lol) Then it would have to be Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. Showing my Bella side there.
Astrid:  Great book.
Jusobele:  Yes it is
Astrid:  Is she your favorite published author?
Jusobele:  Possibly. I loved Emma and Sense and Sensibility as well. There are so many great authors to choose from.

Astrid:  I agree. :)
Favorite types of music? Bands? Singers?
Jusobele:  Oh god, I'm so out of touch with music...
Lily Allen, Ilse... I like fairly easy listening. Something that can just play in the background with whatever I'm doing. I tend to just put on the local radio, and then if I'm in my car it'll be kid’s songs with me accompanying. Lol.

Astrid:  Lol. I know how that is... Favorite movies?
Jusobele:  I like so many. I love romantic comedies: Notting Hill, Sleepless in Seattle, all that kind of stuff. I also like following series of movies: Bourne Trilogy, Lord of the Rings, etc. All time favourite films are probably teenaged ones: Dirty Dancing, Thelma and Louise, ones that I watched on girly movie nights as a teenager. Just for the nostalgia factor. Lol.

Astrid:  Awww. I love those too.
Does anyone in your real life know about your Twilight love? And that you write?
Jusobele:  Ha! Well Twilight love is fairly common knowledge. My nieces (aged 14 and 16) get embarrassed if I want to discuss it with them, Lol. But one of my oldest friends is a Twilight fan, and a few other people I know too, so it's not a big deal that I like Twilight.
But the writing side... my hubby knows and that's about it. I live in a really little village, everyone knows everyone and their business, and I think I would quadruple the rate of coronary incidents if word got out about the lemons I write. Lmao!

Astrid:  Lol! That’s hilarious. At least your husband knows and is cool about it. :)
Jusobele, thank you so much for allowing me to interview you. I really do appreciate it. Is there anything you like to ask? Say in general? Comments for your readers?
Jusobele:  Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read. I've said it so many times before, but I know how busy people's lives are and when someone chooses to read something I've written, it truly makes my day. And thank you Astrid for allowing me to ramble. Lol. I love to ramble.
Astrid:  Lol. I do too. You’re welcome. I'm thoroughly enjoying these interviews. So this was fun.
Jusobele:  Good! It was fun.
Astrid:  Thanks again! Hugs! Goodnight!
Jusobele:  Hugs to you too. Nite nite honey.

Need You by dragonfly76
August Shaffer's Fanfiction.net Page

Thank you all for reading another great interview. Next one will be up soon. :)

3 comments:

  1. That was a fascinating interview. I don't know Josabele well but I kind of feel like I do now that I've read this interview. I love that she was looking up fanfiction stories about Jacob while in labor. That will be a birth story she can share for many years to come. It is cute as hell! It is also really sweet that her husband knows about her writing and approves of it. I am sure he gets to "benefit" from it.

    I have to say that I agree with her feelings about how SM wrote the Twilight Saga. It just proves how right we are about Edward being so controlling, etc. I never thought about what Carlisle did moving them back to the area. I actually got pissed off at him. lol.

    You girls made me go through a lot of emotions reading this. I got pissed off at SM and what she did to Jacob.

    I think this was my favorite part:

    I kept thinking, "Bitch! Go to La Push! Jacob will touch you 69 ways from Sunday!"
    Jusobele: Lol. Yeah, I know. If she had only given him a chance in Eclipse, he could've shown her how a real man touches a woman.

    I totally agree with that! Bella was so dumb...

    Between this part of the interview and the picture of Astrid's Seth, it sure got hot reading the interview.

    After reading this, I feel like I know Jusobele a lot better. I look forward to reading some of her writing soon. I have already heard that it is awesome! Thank you for sharing this wonderful interview.

  2. Does anyone know what happened to Jusobele's fanfictions? They've disappeared from fanfiction.net, and it makes me sad because I loved her work...
