Interview With Author Scott VanDenBerg
Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
Having written screenplays and stage plays, I am sharing these as light, breezy books. An avid cinephile, my books read like movies.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Outrageous tabloid headlines that scream from newsstands inspired me to write THE GREAT GRACELAND CAPER. Vivid characters react plausibly to the most implausible and outrageous of circumstances.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
With due respect to great authors and influential books, I draw my greatest influences from early Woody Allen films like BANANAS, The Marx Brothers and the sublime MONTY PYTHON.
What are you working on now?
My next effort is a spy spoof, THE MAN FROM I.O.W.A.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I turn to Facebook groups to share my stories.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Write what you love to read.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Be of good cheer. Half the world is at peace with itself- and so’s the other half.
