Some Excerpts

Why did you choose your pen name?

My pen name is Nshebo Izyakan, but my real name is Nshebo Walters. I kept my first name because I'm proud of it, and I took the second name from a random-word generator.

Would you agree that fanfiction is a genre dominated by women, and if so, why do you think it's so?

Fanfiction is indeed dominated by women. I think this is because, while women can both create their own characters and adapt existing characters to fit their needs, men have a difficult time doing anything but character-creation. While men CAN write good fanfiction (and I've read proof), on the whole, women are better at it. Another thing to consider is that the majority of fanfiction is romance–which women are statistically more interested in.

This is a site devoted to antagonists. Could you reveal us your favourite Mr. Bad Guy?

My favorite villain is and always will be 'Evil' Magician Trent, the original bad/good guy from A Spell for Chameleon.
