Interview With Author Hasan Syed Jafri
Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
Besides being a co-author on a book on Cancer, I have written another book called God
and god of Science, ISBN 1927930197. This book explores big questions about life from the
perspective of Monotheism and Science. We also have a 2 hours documentary on the book,
with the same name available on my YouTube channel, GodScience1.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
40 Spiritual Rules for the Journey of Life (From Al-Quran). This book was born out of conversation with a colleague, Dr. Adan Rios, who has also written
the Foreword of the book. We were discussing various aspects of Life and why things happen at
a spiritual level. This conversation inspired me to write this book.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I am not sure, what the usual writing habits are, but I tend to write early morning, or late
evening, interspersed between all other activities of daily life.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I have read a lot of books on a variety of subjects, I prefer books that are succinct, but full
of meaning. I prefer non-fiction books.
What are you working on now?
No new project right now.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I think social media, like facebook, though not well versed it marketing books.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
I will say, write, don’t worry about all the other aspect of book publishing. Write first but
have a plan once I finish the book, how will I get it into the market. Will I self-publish or
approach a conventional publisher.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Be honest and disciplined.
What are you reading now?
Sapiens and just ordered, The Spiritual Universe.
What’s next for you as a writer?
Don’t know yet, but may focus on Science and Spirituality or Social Sciences.
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?
Al-Quran, it’s a great book to understand Life. May be spiritual poetry by Rumi
