Q&A with a Fan Fiction Writer: frostbittenlove

There's really a lack of post in this blog. I thought about it and this blog has tons of stuff in it that it's hard to tell what it's really about. But still I will continue to maintain this blog and I'm still looking for more things to post here.

Anyway, getting back to the point. I finally got a reply from one of the writers I sent some questions to. I read her works at her LiveJournal page: http://showersuperstar.livejournal.com/ I have read almost all of her works and I really like them. If you have the time drop by and visit her page and leave a comment while you're at it.

Here's my Q&A with frostbittenlove:

Introducing: Hana no Hime

Hana no Hime started doing duet covers through the internet for fun. The two met at the JPOPFEST held last year on March 11, 2012. That was the first time the two met in person though they have known each other because they are both part of the same text clans.

When Hello!Project Philippines was going to hold a concert, Hana no Hime was invited to perform and that was the first time they performed live on stage in front of an audience.

If you translate their name “Hana no Hime” in English it means “Flower Princess”

Hana no Hime’s members are: Riza Iwasaki, a half Japanese-Filipino from Tarlac who is 22 years old and Trina Espinosa also known as Ritsu, an AB Communication Arts student from Cavite who is 19 years old. The two loves covering Japanese Songs mostly from talents under the agency Hello! Project but they also do covers from various J-pop artists/ groups like Flower.

About the members:

Cover: I Don't Need a Man

Q&A with the writer: novemberbaby

Hello and happy new year everyone! Though I'm a little late on the greeting. This will be my first entry for the year 2013 and I wanted to make it special. It may not be special to those of you who are reading this now but at least it's special for me.

I sent out some questions to two of the writers in LiveJournal that I look up to: novemberbaby (chasingpolaris) and frostbittenlove (showersuperstar). The first one who sent an answer was novemberbaby. Below you will be able to read my questions and her answers.

I have read almost all of novemberbaby's journal entries at her writing journal and I really like her works. If you have the time visit her journal: chasingpolaris.livejournal.com.
