Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Leonardo’s Lost Notes is my latest book, it’s a puzzle book full of sketches and quotes from Leonardo da Vinci. The puzzles are unique riddles, codes and logic problems that, when solved, reveal keys which can be used to discover Leonardo’s final secret at the end of the book.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I find I feel much more creative and productive at night so while creating my latest book I often worked on it from 11 pm – 3 am.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I have been inspired by several puzzle books which I have played recently, my favourites are Journal 29 and Trip 1907.
What are you working on now?
I am currently working on my new puzzle book, focusing on the true story of Blackbeard. The book will be on Kickstarter soon and Amazon after that.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Launching the book on Kickstarter was a great way to expose it to a huge community who where just as excited about it as me.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Don’t loose momentum near the finish line, the final stages of writing are the hardest, but if you never finish and show the world, what was the point.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
While researching thr book I can across this quote from Leonardo that I like.
“It had long since come to my attention that people of accomplishment rarely sat back and let things happen to them. They went out and happened to things.” – Leonardo da Vinci.
