Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’m a fourth generation Chinese Canadian who has watched the transition from North America considering Asians as inferior third class citizens to full members of society. This deeply affects my work as writer, filmmaker and community worker and I’m considered a “bridge person” between cultures, religions and races.
All this is not on the page directly but shows itself up as authentic characterizations, backstory and information in my books. I’ve written about ten books, action thrillers and paranormal thrillers.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The Noah Reid Action Thriller Series is what I’m working on. I wanted to combine East and West, Yin and Yang, Christianity and Chinese Religions and authentic Martial Arts into one kickass bunch of novels.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Robert Ludlum, James Patterson, Stan Lee and Russell Blake are writers I really admire and I take a little bit out of each one. As a Christian, I’m strongly influenced by the Bible and as a Chinese, I have strong influences from Confucius and Lao Tze.
What are you working on now?
Right now, I’m working on a new series, still untitled, featuring twenty-six-year old Rayna Tang, a remarkable young woman who is a black belt martial artist as well a Ph.D in psychology who becomes an operative of a clandestine private anti-crime organization FIDELITAS. Her cover is that of a very high end investment banker/dealmaker.
As this character is an offshoot of the Noah Reid series, there is also East and West, Yin and Yang, Christianity and Chinese Religions.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Throw everything against the wall and see what sticks. Different strokes for different folks.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Never stop learning. Be open to criticism but remember, you make the final call.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Oscar-winning screenwriter William Goldman’s famous line. “Nobody Knows Anything.”
What are you reading now?
A bunch of indie action authors. Russell Blake. Nick Stephenson. Ernest Dempsey. Mark Dawson.
What’s next for you as a writer?
