I'd certainly like for Oiorpata to be on tv or made into a movie. A number of people have said they'd like to see it on the screen. Of all the characters I've written, I like 57-J the best. I actually changed the ending of the story because I didn't want her to die. I've thought about turning it into a series with her hunting down other Oiorpata who stayed on the dark side. It would be nice to see her brought to life by an actress. The story I'm working on now is taking much longer than I intended because it has elements of my own life. I'll never say which things are exactly like they happened, which ones are exaggerated, and which ones are pure fiction.(less)

How do you deal with writer’s block?

I know where I am in the story and I have a general idea where I want to go, so I don't worry about what I'm writing. I find that if I keep going I'll get on track. Then, I can go back and delete or edit anything that doesn't sound that good. It's much the same as starting a book. Many times, the beginning isn't really where the story ought to begin so you (or I) drop the dull beginning and start where the action begins. It's the same thing for me when I'm stuck. Just put words down and move the story forward without worrying how it sounds, then go back and edit it.(less)

My Best Book

My new book, Blue's Point, appears to be the best book I've ever written. I've gotten three 5-star reviews and one 4-star review at Goodreads, and three 5-star reviews and two 4-star reviews at Amazon. Not only that, they tend to be rave reviews.

I'll leave you with the latest 5-star review for Blue's Point on Amazon:
