Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’ve only published one book thus far, but I’ve got a few more on the way.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Done! Finish Your Creative Project in One Month
I’ve noticed both in my own life and in others how easy it is for unfinished projects to stack up, especially creative ones. This is my solution to that problem. You can find it on Amazon here:
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I prefer to write just after getting up or right before bed. I try to at least get in half an hour of writing every day and just be content with what I’ve been able to accomplish.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Authors: Orson Scott Card, C. S. Lewis, Robert Jordan, Terry Pratchett, Neil Gaiman, K. M. Weiland
Books: The Slight Edge, The War of Art, Create v.s Copy, The Wingfeather Saga, and books by the above authors
What are you working on now?
I have a larger nonfiction book about creativity, purpose, and how story connects the two.
I have a short sci-fi story that I’m looking to get published as well as a sci-fi novel that’s in its last revision stage before I look for a publisher.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I’m still learning that myself, though it seems like building an email list and offering a sign-up incentive is always a good idea.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Keep writing, it gets better. Also, write because you love to write, it’s the only way to keep yourself writing.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Do just a little bit of what you’re supposed to every day and you’ll reap benefits in the long run.
What are you reading now?
Hard Luck Hank
What’s next for you as a writer?
I plan to continue writing nonfiction books about creativity as well as start a series of short stories about an inter-universal trucker (obviously fiction).
If you were going to be stranded on a desert island and allowed to take 3 or 4 books with you what books would you bring?
If there’s some kind of digital book that could connect to the internet even on a desert island, I’d take that. Also, why must it be a desert and not a tropical island?
Anyhow, I’d probably take the Bible and then the next 4 biggest books I could find (like War and Peace or a Dictionary), all that paper might prove useful!
