Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am Flowell the poet, the artist, the musician, the athlete. I have only written one book thus far but I have at least twelve that I have in the pipeline. I’m a young millennial with an old soul.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
My latest book is called 100 Poems that you’ll never read and it was inspired by the fact that most of my friends and family claimed that they have not heard me do any poems for a long stretch of time. It was about 5 years and I refused to do invited performances in any capacity. These poems were a collection of poetry that probably no one would ever read so I decided to publish it for the world to read since I will not be making anymore. Since I have published I have never wrote another poem.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I only write when I am inspired so when those moments of inspiration come I will literally stop whatever I am doing (even pull over if I am driving) to write down my ideas.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Edgar Allan Poe is the GOAT to me. I always love Shell Silversteing, Maya Angelou, Dav Pilkey, and Rick Rodian
What are you working on now?
I am working on a thriller. It is amazing trust me. It is my pride and joy right now. I am so so excited for everyone to read it. The story is fast-paced. Has some interesting elements that touch on action, adventure, and mystery.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I like to use Instagram and Twitter. I am active on these platforms so it allows me to interact with people more often.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Love what you do and just do it. Put your energy and effort into it. Make it the best and then share it.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
From Maya Angelou herself “Don’t let any pain discourage you”
What are you reading now?
All non-fiction I am building myself up. Working on optimizing good habits and sharpening my mind.
What’s next for you as a writer?
Plan Stanza Tour and hopefully grow it into a brand and platform that many Poets, Artists, and Writers can be apart of. I would love to give them a way to showcase their talent.
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?
