Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am an avid writer and continue to love creating life through my prose. Ink Formations is my third book, My Voice was written in 2010 and Journey of Mentality was done in 2013.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Ink Formations is my newest collection of poetry inspired by life and imagination. What I do is take an emotion and use it as flint to ignite my passion for prose.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
My most unusual habit for writing is the fact I have to finish the write fully or at the very least a draft. If I leave my work alone even for a day it seems I can never finish the poem.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Honestly I love to read what the up and coming writers have on Instagram and Twitter. I have a love for raw work and there is plenty of gems to be found among all the writers there.
What are you working on now?
Currently working on full edits of my two previous books along with a compilation of what I feel is my “Best Of” work. I never stop writing, along with the full edit I have a new book “Thoughts Through the Keyhole” that is in the starting stages.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Not afraid to say I am still fresh to promotion and still looking for the right mixture of what to do and not to do.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Never throw all your hopes in one basket, do your research and be strict.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Never stop dreaming.
What are you reading now?
Books are down for the moment to keep my work my own.
What’s next for you as a writer?
Who really knows for sure, I hope eventually to write and travel with my wife. To see the world doing what I love with the person I love most, that would be the life.
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?
Anything Martha Wells, that is my honest answer.
