Interview With Author Kris Crawford
Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’m a new indie author and poet who believes in writing to make a difference and touch people over making a profit. I have written and self published over a dozen books in two years. I live in my home town which is a small farming community in central Texas. I am unique, a little crazy, and a big lover of my family, friends, and pets.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Outcast’s Odyssey isn’t my most recent poetry collection but it’s the best one yet and by far the most powerful and moving. As someone who has mental illness and been through trauma, I would want to read this book! It’s inspiring to those who feel like they have to shrink themselves to survive. I want to be their voice. The voice for the outcasts.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I’m disabled so I read or write most of my time. This allows me to release books faster than the average author I suppose.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Too many to list but above all for poetry is Sylvia Plath, Emily Dickinson, Jane Austen to name a few.
What are you working on now?
I’m actually working on a family story about a family who takes in strays whether human or animal and the impact it all has on their lives.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I’m not sure yet. I’m still figuring all of this out.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Be patient and just keep writing!
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Just keep writing
What are you reading now?
Roll for Deception by Kalia Rose.
What’s next for you as a writer?
Hopefully to get my books seen so they can make the impact I dream of making and touch as many lives as possible.
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?
I’m not sure. I’d have to really think about this one for a while. Sorry.
