Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
Philadelphia’a Thriller Author, Dean Kutzler, writes fast-paced thrillers entrenched with surprisingly true facts hidden around the world. Brownstone is the first book in The Jack Elliot Series.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Brownstone is the first book in the Jack Elliot Series. The book was born from a vast interest in archaeology and the beginning of our existence.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Unusual? I wouldn’t really call it unusual, but I do like to sit outside when I write. I’m inspired by nature and wildlife.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
James Rollins has been a very big influence in my writing career. Stephen King was my favorite author as a kid and still is today.
What are you working on now?
Currently, I’m working on book two in the Jack Elliot Series. I’ve found some more shocking facts that are little known to the world that I cannot wait to share.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Facebook, obviously is the go-to, hands down, as a vehicle for promotion. I also love an online app called DesignFeed. It allows you to put in text content that it then searches for appropriate pictures to create memes with. It is a HUGE time-saver.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Write…write and write some more. Practice truly makes perfection or a close facsimile thereof. Writing and reading, everyday…is key.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
See the previous question.
What are you reading now?
Currently, I’m finishing up Stephen King’s Mr. Mercedes trilogy.
What’s next for you as a writer?
After book two in the Jack Elliot Series, I am going to finish a stand-alone novel that I’d been working on previously, tentatively titled Valentine’s Day Surprise. It originally started out as a free Valentine’s Day story, but I was so intrigued with the subject matter that I’d found (hidden secrets) that I was compelled to make it a full-length novel.
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?
Ugh… That is a tough one. Let’s see…hmmm. They have to be large books. 1) Aztec, by Gary Jennings. 2) Gallilee, by Clive Barker and lastly 3) Otherland, by Tad Williams.
