Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am retired and have written five books. I started writing late in life and plan on continuing to write as time permits. I love writing so my hope is that I will have many more books to my credit.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
My latest book is titled Alliance of the Quad: Winds of War. It is the fifth and final book in the Alliance of the Quad series. The series was inspired by the idea that great, fun, and engaging stories about life, liberty, and freedom can be written without poor language and questionable moral story lines. I want to write a story kids and adults alike would enjoy.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I don’t write outlines or put together story boards. I know the basics, where the story begins, the place and time of the story, how the story ends and I just write. What is on the next page is as much of a surprise to me as it is to the reader. As I write, if I feel I have gone off track, I back up a little and then continue. My stories seem to flow out of me head on their own without a lot of pre-planning on my part. It is quite amazing to me.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
The Hobbit, Lord of the Rings by J. R. Tolkein and Centennial by James Michener
What are you working on now?
No, I retire a couple of years ago.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I don’t know yet, I’ll let you know.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Don’t get discouraged and push to the end. Write the story from start to finish, then go back and embellish what you have written. Don’t think that each page needs to be perfect before moving on to the next, you will never get it to the finish line.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Write a little every day.
What are you reading now?
I’m not reading much right now, I am mostly promoting my book series and traveling.
What’s next for you as a writer?
I am writing volume one, Alliance of the Quad: The New Alliance, as a screen play.
What is your favorite book of all time?
Lord of the Rings
