Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’m Morgan Amos, and a first time author of the book From The Killer’s Eyes, which is available on Amazon. Currently, I freelance for different online magazine publications including VMH, i.d.e.a.l., and more. I am a poet enthusiast, and I feel that writing is a way for people to say how/what they feel. Writing opens you open to discovering a new world of endless possibilities. It’s a journey that I and I’m sure other writers are happy we’re on.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
From The Killer’s Eyes is my latest book, and what inspired it is the things that happen within my life. I gathered inspiration from family, friends, myself, television shows, and just whatever caught my eye that I felt would be useful to add to my book.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Not that I am aware of.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I am a huge fan of Zane and I like Mary Higgins Clark.
What are you working on now?
I am working on my second book which should be out in 2015.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I don’t really have a method or best website. I just use all social media networks such as Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Google+, Instagram, and of course, my own website.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
My advice for new authors would be to definitely stay dedicated to writing your book, and to take your time when deciding which route you want to pursue for publishing. Also, please research and find out all the information you can about publishing companies and also self-publishing. Make sure to have someone read over your work preferably not someone you know. Constructive criticism is sometimes best especially when marketing your book to a specific audience to see who will want to read it. And most importantly, remember to have fun and enjoy this experience. You have accomplished something wonderful and it should be treated as such.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
I haven’t came across that yet.
What are you reading now?
Sadly, nothing at the moment. I’m busy with interviews. But about a month ago, I read Zane’s The Other Side of the Pillow.
What’s next for you as a writer?
Who knows. As I mentioned, I’m working on my second book. I just feel where ever God leads me is where I am supposed to be.
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 own, and that might sound cheesy, but I worked hard. I would also bring Zane books with me, and probably some of Hill Harper’s books.
