Writing Meme

Found this here. Needed to do it.


The next one will simply be Riesel Tales: Two Hunters, Volume 2. I'm also working on Volume 1 of a new, related series.



Several sources, but mostly from my past sci-fi roleplaying exploits and other adventures on the Internet.


3) What genre does your book/work fall under?

Science fiction, dystopian, cyberpunk, action, comedy, and a little bit of slice-of-life.


4) What actors would you choose to play the part of your characters […]

An Interview with Roystonn Pruitt

I decided to consult the Internet for common author interview questions, then interviewed myself!

- Why did you write your book?

I wrote it because I had a story to share with the world. Writing is my forte, so it seemed like a natural path to follow.


- What inspired you?

A large part of my inspiration came from science fiction works such as Star Wars (movies and books), as well as animation. The largest, however, was from my time as a sci-fi roleplayer on the Internet. Without that experience, Riesel would not be as it is today.


- How did you settle on this story? […]

Quizzes with Wolves

I told my book characters about another questionnaire. I failed to tell them it was a dating quiz. Oops.

1) What do you do for work? - 

Runge: Retrieval specialist and wetwork. I like saying that because it sounds fancy.

Ramy: He means bounty hunter and assassin. Same for me, minus the last part.

Runge: You do assassinations, too.

Ramy: I...don't like to advertise it. It's not fun for me...unlike how it is for you.

Runge: As I said in the last quiz, life is a video game, and I'm aiming for the high score.

Ramy: Lifetime incarceration in a hypermax facility, I see.

Runge: Yeah, probably one of the ones on a planet that's orbiting way too close to its star.

Ramy: Only the best for you, of course.


2) Where are you from? - 

Runge: Do we really need to get into biology?

Ramy: Hoooo, clever. Everyone is laughing. Ha. Ha. Ha. Runge meant to say Ahjri, a planet. Same for me, although my surrogate homeworld is Audonika.



Runge: I do magic tricks from time to time. I can transform someone's brain into paint with a simple twitch of my finger! […]

The Great Questioning

Another deviantArt questionnaire featuring my book's two bounty hunter "protagonists", Runge Margavo and Ramy Dusotes!


Runge: All day, every day.

Ramy: Not on this planet. Next.



Runge: A long time ago.

Ramy: May 7.



Runge: If it's female, mildly intelligent, and not fat, I'm all over it.

Ramy: As I said in Question A.



Questionnaerial Assault

This is a questionnaire thing I did on deviantArt. Fun!

Totally had to do this for the characters of my book, Riesel Tales: Two Hunters. Behold: everyone's favorite loopy bounty hunter duo Runge and Ramy answer a questionnaire.

1. What is your name?

Runge: Runge Margavo. Are we done yet?

Ramy: Ramy Dusotes. Please pardon my partner's insanity.


2. Do you know why you were named that?

Runge: Because my dad was drunk and my mom went with it. Or something. Best guess.

Ramy: My parents never really told me. They never told me a lot of things, actually.


 3. Are you single or taken?

Runge: Never single, never taken. Wink wink.

Ramy: Single, and it'll remain that way until I get off this nasty ball of towers and settle on a more civilized world.


4. Have any abilities or powers?

Runge: I can down a bunch of ale and still pop somebody from the distance with a sniper rifle. I'm sturdy like that. […]
