Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I reside in Frederick Maryland but born and raised in Miami Florida. I am married with three kids two boys, one girl. Ages 10, 6, and 3. Thus far I have written 5 books, A Voyage Through Rhyme- which is a poetry collection, 50 Shades of Progress- Which is a collection of political essays. Trump v. Clinton: The End of Democracy- which was an account and analysis of the 2016 primary season. What a Twist- Which is a collection of short stories . They are all available and published on Kindle format by Amazon.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The book is called The Savior? it is basically a tale about Man vs. The Gods if you will. It is inspired by the audacity of humanity and the notion of can we save ourselves from the wrath of the Gods… if they want to destroy us all. At the end however it may not be all that i seems to be.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Not really, the biggest problem at times is finding the time to sit down and write especially with all the demands that come along with being the father of three kids.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
When it comes to my writing there are no direct influences that I specifically use when I write, if some shines through from different authors it is an accidental thing.
What are you working on now?
I am currently working on getting a science fiction trilogy published, it is called the Silberian Trilogy and I hope to have the first part of it published some time this year.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Well I am usually most comfortable with Facebook and Twitter. I find those are the easiest ways to connect with potential readers.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Be patient… be very, very patient. There are times where you will feel like you are moving nowhere but the truth is in today’s publishing climate one is trying to stand out among the sea of thousands, so you have to be patient and naturally very persistent… Oh and most important of all never stop writing.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
To be patient and that this is not an overnight thing.
What are you reading now?
I just finished reading 11/22/63 by Stephen King and I am currently reading Interface by Neal Stephenson.
What’s next for you as a writer?
Well hopefully the successful publication of my science fiction trilogy… and maybe an adaptation to film or television? (anyone want to work on a screen play?)
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?
That is an immensely difficult question because there are so many I would bring with me… so can’t really answer this.
