Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
My name is Hoshun, raw foodist from Japan. I was born in 1980 and have practiced the raw food diet serious since I was 25.
I want to be a writer and have written fantasy and about my diet. Now I’ve published only diet one named “Perfect Raw Food”.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
“Perfect Raw Food”
This is about my way of raw food diet. It was perfected naturally after years of practice of raw food diet.
I never intented to write a book about diet when I started this diet but later I found my way was very distinctive and effective. So I decided to make a book.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Not unusual maybe but I’ve writing a diary. Personally I’ve never met anyone who’ve kept the diary around my age.
There would be some in the world but must be very few.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I like Mooming by Tobe Yanson and other children, picture books.
Also I like non-fiction books but about my book “Perfect Raw Food”, I think I haven’t been infulenced by anybody. I wrote just as I talk to my friend.
What are you working on now?
No new books. Only Perfect Raw Food at the moment.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I want to know of it myself.. I like writing and can write forever but am quite unfamiliar about promoting. So I’ve tried this and that.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
I don’t have a qualifcation to advice new authors yet.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
You can solve any problem if you used your head
What are you reading now?
Nothing especially
What’s next for you as a writer?
I want to spread my diet around the world
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?
My book “Perfect Raw Food”.
Other books..I can’t hit on.. I don’t meant I haven’t read books, but actually I have read a lot. Yet, I can’t hit on books I wanted to bring desert island.
Rather, I’ll print messages of my wife, make a book and take it.
