My name is Rock Kitaro and I’m an up and coming novelist, screenwriter and all around good-natured (often times cerebral) philosopher. Right now, I’m on a journey to publish my first novel, “The Three Kings of Ybor”. But until you see it on your shelves, I’ve decided to upload and share some of my other entertaining stories.

To be up front, I’ll go ahead and tell you that with my stories, I curse and can sometimes be choreographic with my fight scenes. Following the Byronic Hero that I learned about in film school, all of my main characters are troubled individuals. They are sophisticated, arrogant, seductive, disrespectful of authority, self-destructive and struggle with a sense of integrity, what’s right or wrong. In particular, I wrote “T

I just have to step away for a moment and take a break from it.

To me, writing isn't a just hobby that I cram out in my spare time. It's something that I absolutely love and must do. It's my own therapy. It's my ability to fly, my ability to escape this world without committing suicide. So no matter how tough a time I'm having at the moment, I know the urge to do so will come back to me in a matter of days. Never weeks or months.(less)

I suppose for me, the best thing about writing is that it's provided an outlet for me in my personal life. I hate saying I'm different but at the same time, I'm far from normal.

Raised unconventionally and in contradicting environments, it was hard for me to explain to people what was bothering me internally without them looking at me like I have three heads. I gradually came to accept myself for who I was, but simply forming that personal constitution and praying to God wasn't enough for me.

So a blank piece of paper listened to my problems. The number of self-discoveries I've unearth by simply writing down my internal conflicts and coming to solutions to the problems...it's a beautiful thing. Of course, even after I've come to the conclusion, I've had to seek second opinions. This is a must not just for validation, but to assure yourself that you're not going crazy.(less)

The Truth About the Publishing Industry: It Favors Women…and is Biased Against Men 

This is a sensitive subject for me to admit because I wasn’t raised to make excuses. If I fail…the last thing I ever want is to say is, it’s because the system is rigged against me. Sounds like a cop-out, an excuse to make you feel better for your own lack of talent, determination, or […]
