Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?
Tony Primm I enjoy reading novels that are about spies and assassins. My favorite thriller authors are David Baldacci, Lee Child, and Vince Flynn. Each author has developed a special character but they never really give a complete history. I decided to write about my character by starting in forth grade and following his life until he became an assassin.

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?
Tony Primm Never give up and "write" because "you like to write." Bill O'Reilly once said, "an author should write a piece of work because they want to, not to make money. If it doesn't sell, you can still be proud of yourself." How many people really sit down and write a Novel? Not many.

How do you get inspired to write?
Tony Primm I have always liked to write. I have written poetry, short stories, and journalized over the years. In 1990, I had an idea for a Novel and never really got it off the ground, due to the workload in my regular job. I started a Masters program in 2009 and finished in 2010. After writing countless papers and working full time, I found it much easier to write. I began to work on the 1990 Novel concept during the summer of 2011. Once again, I failed to get the project moving. In June 2012, I read a Stephen King Novel and liked the idea of telling the story as the Character. A knew idea crossed my mind and I began to write Killing Time.
