I've always been an avid reader. When I was a kid, it was Tolkien, King, and Bradbury. In school they made me read Hemingway, Steinbeck, and Orwell. My range expanded.

Once I stumbled on the structure - each chapter is basically its own adventure - I saw all sorts of possibilities. Exotic locales, unusual characters, strange adventures. Ideas just started to flow and all I had to do was organize them, polish them up, get them on paper.(less)

Give lesser known authors a chance

Since I released my first book (Strange Hunting), I have had the good fortune to meet and correspond with a number of new, independent authors. Most of us are all in the same boat: We love to write, we have taken the time and effort to produce novels or short stories, and we now are in the position of having to promote and sell our books without help from a publisher. It's a tough job. Yes, writin Read more of this blog post »
