Interview with S. Sebastian, Author of Donor

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Donor?

I was inspired by simply observing how the world is changing in terms of basic human nature. People have become more selfish and less concerned about others, and I wanted to reflect that reality through this story.

What’s your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?

My favorite genre to read is the same as my favorite genre to write. I enjoy stories that are intense, emotional, and full of suspense because they keep me engaged and allow me to explore deeper human experiences.

What books are on your TBR pile right now?

Right now, my TBR pile includes a mix of thrillers and emotional dramas, especially stories that explore human psychology, mystery, and real-life struggles. I’m always drawn to books that keep me thinking and feeling long after I finish them.

What scene in your book was your favorite to write?

One of my favorite scenes to write was the one that explains how the underground system works. It was exciting to build that hidden world beneath the surface, showing how everything connects, how information and people move in secret, and how the system operates without being noticed by the outside world. It added depth to the story and made the stakes feel real and intense.

Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)

I don’t really have any quirky writing habits. I prefer to keep things simple and focus quietly, letting the story flow without any special routines or distractions.

Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?

I live by a simple philosophy: mind my own business and don’t harm others.

If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?

I would want readers to remember that a father’s love is often undervalued, yet it is deep, powerful, and plays a vital role in shaping lives.
