Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
Hi,
I am a retired store owner and fishing boatman. I started writing a book called ‘The Mind bender’ in 2012. I found I enjoyed the process and have since written three more books. They are all different genres. The experts say that you should stick to the same genre if you want to sell loads of stories. Well I don’t expect to sell that many anyway so who cares. I write because I enjoy it. My other books are ‘Adam’ and ‘The dark side of my soul’.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
My latest book is called ‘Made in China’ and was written during lock down. Lock down inspired the story, as did other subjects such as Government cover ups, World population and Global heating.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Not really.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Dean Koontz, George Orwell.
What are you working on now?
Playing golf.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I do not do any promotions. This is my first.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Write to enjoy.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Live long and prosper. Spock
What are you reading now?
Lots.
What’s next for you as a writer?
I am 76 years old. Not a lot I guess.
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?
On a desert Island I would probably take some pornography.
