Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’m a married author that resides in Washington DC with two beautiful daughters and Bad Kenny 2nd Story will be my 4th book with the 3rd and final installment of the Bad Kenny series due out this December.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The name of my latest book is Bad Kenny 2nd Story ‘Only at the feet of love will lust bow’. And what inspired this installment of the Bad Kenny series was the simple question of could you love a prostitute knowing who she is and what she does? Think of a dark erotic Pretty Woman minus the fluff that’s sexually detailed. Add a few twist and arousing situations and what you have on your hands is a book that goes there sexually for you and happily takes you along.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I’m quirky so most of what I do is unusual…lol. Seriously, I don’t think so. I write in spurts at times and just trying to get myself to write longer while I’m flowing.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
James Patterson for his short chapters. It’s the ultimate cheat in getting a reader to keep reading. If you keep telling yourself that you are only going to read one more chapter and that chapter is over before you know it you are on to the next chapter. Looking up an hour and a half later and now you are at books end.
What are you working on now?
Bad Kenny 3rd Story is up next. With it being the 3rd and final installment of The Bad Kenny series I’m really geeked to see how I’m going to tie up such a story with so many layers. Most of the layers are subtle that give depth to the characters of the book, but it’s those layers that connect with the readers.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Do I suppose to say Awesome Gang? Well I hope it is, looking to get the word out about my writing as much as possible. I usually use ads on Facebook, but I will run ads on Amazon this time out, so we will see.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Keep writing! Yeah it’s old and cliche, but the chances of you knocking it out of the park with your first book is highly unlikely. That’s why this bit of advice is repeated so often; to keep writing. A couple of things happen if you do: 1st you will get better the more you write. 2nd your earning potential increases with number of books you have written. And 3rd you can and maybe you want to teach others how to effectively write and get paid while doing it!
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Publish. My teacher made his way through the crowd of students at the end of his class, extended his hand to me, hugged me and whispered in my ear to publish. Didn’t look back didn’t wait for me to ask questions, just planted the seed. And I’m so very thankful for it.
What are you reading now?
NOTHING. I’m an Audible junkie though. My current favorites are Shoe Dog by Phil Knight, Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, Three Feet from Gold by Sharon L. Lecter and Greg S. Reid and Is Wrestling Fixed by Bill Apter
What’s next for you as a writer?
What else? Keep writing. But I’m going to start offering courses for self published authors at the beginning of the year as well. Looking to start my own podcast too.
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?
