I think the writer has to come across the right reason to tell the story. I experienced this. I think I had written the first two chapters when everything went dull. There was something about coming across the Rev. Eddie Lafountain and the work he was doing for the people surrounding Mexico Beach, Fl. after hurricane Michael. This story is at the end of As the Crow Flies.

If you have a good story to tell then I can't think of a better way to tell it. We all come across people and places that could make a good story. What better way to share it?

That's a tough question because in many ways I feel like I am still in that category. I would say, make sure you find good people to work with. I am very blessed finding Storehouse Media Group, but I am sure there are many good editor/publishers out there.

The book has just released so I'm pretty much busy just promoting the book. I have an idea for another book, but we'll have to wait and see how it goes.

I think the inspiration came from having a good story to write. It was more about telling the story than just writing a book.

Our paths crossed with my work in law enforcement and Freddie's drug smuggling activities. Once Freddie was caught and brought to justice I became very familiar with him in numerous interviews. His continued cooperation kept us in contact. His diagnosis with cancer brought us together. Freddie had always wanted a book written, but did not get very far with it. After his death his family requested I write the book.
