once again we have a very talented author with us!! so lets start with smolten!!!

1. What is your AFF username?
My username is smolten. 


2. How many stories have you published in AFF so far?

8. Which genre you like to read and write?
Fantasy! Anyone who knows me will know that I am definitely a er
