Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
Up and coming author, currently I have two books under my belt, but short stories nonetheless.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Batey Ascending. Heavily inspired by my heritage, the Taino people of the Caribbean. After the massive protests, I learned the history of what transpired in my country, Dominican Republic and put my creative juices to work. I liked the sport they had and thought a spin to it, mixing it up with some of my favorite pieces of work and creating a unique story never heard of before would be kind of cool.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Yeah, I just stare at the screen until words appear. Is what I wish I could say. I simply wait until I get inspiration sitting in front of my keyboard. Once inspiration comes I do not stop.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Brian Jacques. His series of Redwall has been instrumental in my life.
What are you working on now?
I am currently working on the sequel to Batey Ascending, titled, Batey Descending.
