1- Who is your favorite legendary woman from the past?

Cleopatra because she was mischievous, and I am a little bit too. Especially, because I like to sneak in my mom’s closet!

The best piece of writing advice I’ve received is to not be repetitive!

3- What is your favorite joke?

Question: What’s a shark’s favorite candy?

Answer: A jaw breaker.

4- How can someone best help the ocean?

By having a sustainable life, so to best help the oceans, we should not use fast fashion or single-use plastics. We should remake clothes or wear the same thing and not be ashamed to re-wear our clothes!

5- Would you share a picture with us of your favorite vintage piece?

My favorite vintage piece is this dress of my mom’s that I wore to dress up as Kusama!

I also love these vintage toys that my dad gifted me. They’re super special!

6- What's your favorite piece to play on the piano?

My favorite piece to play on the piano is called Comedian’s Dance by Dmitri Kabalevsk!

Author name: Louis Sachar Title: Holes
Love because: The characters in the story are so brave!


8- What kind of impact do you hope your book will have?

I hope my book inspires other kids to get creative and come up with their very own unique projects! I want it to make them feel like they can do anything and that nothing should stop them from chasing their dreams.

9- Would you please ask our audience a question to answer in the comments?

Who’s your favorite legend and what’s something special you’d need to dress up as them?

10- Anything else you would care to share about your book and yourself?

I continue my project on my social media! You can see me dressed up as many more legends on my Instagram and Facebook @legendsfrommomscloset. I also post videos about both of my projects on my YouTube channel: Sasha Olsen.
