The book I am currently working on, Life Among the Dead 4, began long ago. This current and final installment was inspired by the roller derby, several fine actors that I pay homage to, every zombie thing I've ever seen, and my fans.
The most recent release, Fortune Cookie, was inspired by Chinese vampire lore that I took and made my own.

Getting lost in a new story. Letting it consume you as you live it out in your head until you just have to put it on paper.

Life inspires me. So many things in my Life Among the Dead series were born from random thoughts and observations about life. I'll dedicate several chapters in order to make a 'great' idea work, especially if it's a joke that sounds perfect for a certain character.

I try to have something going on the side I can slip into, right now I have a short story I'm working on for when book four gives me too much trouble.

I am starting the fourth/final installment of my New Castle Saga. Life Among the Dead 4 will bring the series to a close, if it turns out the way it's playing in my head it should be absolutely insane.

Never pull your punches. If your gut is telling you to do something shocking, heartbreaking, or even something against the norm--go for it.
