Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am a business attorney by trade. During a rather long health crisis I started writing The Order Reborn with my three sons and lovely daughter. The Order Reborn is the first of a five part series. Book two is written and being proofread, and will be released in December 2018.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The Order Reborn is the name of my first book. It was inspired by the desire for my adult children to have something fun to read.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I do a ton of outlining first. I have these huge spreadsheets for books 1-5 with an overall series spreadsheet. I like consistency and having each book build upon the other, it’s fun.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Recently, I’ve been reading John Conroe’s the Demon Accords. However, Dean Koontz’s Odd Thomas series was inspiring, and Jim Butcher is always a worth rereading.
What are you working on now?
Right now I’m proofreading Book 2, and finishing Book 3.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Keep the Faith is the best advice I can give. Nothing else really works except perseverance.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Trust yourself.
What are you reading now?
Typhoon Fury by Clive Cussler
What’s next for you as a writer?
Continue to work on the entire series until it is finished.
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?
Harry Potter, The Order of the Phoenix. Steve Mchugh, Lies Ripped Open. John Conroe, God Hammer.
