I have been writing since I was about nine years old. Later, after receiving positive feedback from my high school Creative Writing teacher, I began to take it seriously.
Literary Fiction, Contemporary Fiction, Contemporary Romance, and the occasional Ghost Story.
I have been around a long time and have seen a lot of things. I get inspiration both from current events and from memories of past experiences, then sprinkle in a LOT of pure imagination. I currently have several stories in various stages of development, and more ideas than I will ever live long enough to finish.
I would say that my writing style is concise and, hopefully, engaging. My books are character driven, dialogue-heavy, and only descriptive where they absolutely need to be. Some might say I'm a minimalist. No world building or purple prose here.
At my desk at home. I have tried to write in a cafe or other places, but I have found that I need to be in near silence to work.
Up around 7am, followed by about four hours of checking my email, reading the news, etc., and drinking a lot of caffeine. I begin writing at 11am and continue until 5pm. I do this 5 days a week. I treat it like my job because it is.
Absolutely. I wouldn't want to do anything else (except maybe play guitar for the Rolling Stones).
Ernest Hemingway, Sarah Waters, Kurt Vonnegut, Jr., Andrew Vacchs, Virginia Woolf, George Saunders, Truman Capote, James Baldwin, and Tana French, just to name a few.
Rarely. If I do, they will be listed on my Events page.
Unfortunately, no.
