Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am a full-time piano entertainer who writes when I’m not playing music. I’ve written two books.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
I have been learning to play the piano since I was five years old and it’s been a pretty amazing journey. My book “Wrong Note Right: the Story of an Accidental Piano Man” chronicles that journey. I was inspired to right it after we produced one-man show of the same name and I realized I had to leave out a lot of my story to make the stage play the right length. I feel like I have a pretty inspiring story and it was fun to put it all in print
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I always write in the mornings, never after noon
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I’m a big fan of Hemingway mainly because I see a pattern of how he lived a life of adventure and that in turn inspired his books. If you study him at all, his novels are basically a map that show his travels and adventures, from Paris to Cuba. I feel like all things written should be inspired in part by something you actually experienced.
What are you working on now?
I’m working a book inspired by building a sandcastle at the beach!
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Word of mouth, hands down.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Write, write, write and then write some more.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
You have to write volumes to find your true voice. It takes time.
What are you reading now?
Hemingway’s Selected Letters and Steinbeck’s Travels with Charley
What’s next for you as a writer?
Hopefully more adventures which will inspire more books!
