1) What inspired you to write?
I’ve always been creative. I remember taking a liking to reading and writing in school but
I think it became a passion for me in the 6th grade. I lost sight of that for a while but then my
brother, Shannon, and my high school creative writing teacher, Ms. Jean, helped reignite that
passion strongly.
I was also the only kid I knew who’d craft elaborate longform stories in multiple formats with
my toys. I had 4 or so different episodic “shows” with vastly different power sets, settings, and
plots which all often used the same action figures but playing different roles depending on the
“show” and character they were. In one show a figure was a professional wrestler, in another
a giant robot, and yet in the next they be an intergalactic space warrior. That’s really where it
started.
2) Are you a reader? What are some of your favorites?
I am, though I don’t read as much as I want. Hell House by Richard Matteson is a recent fave
as is Darksiders: The Abomination Vault. My favorite series includes the Harry Potter books
and A Song of Ice and Fire.
3) What is your newest work, and what is going to happen in the future?
Hell’s Glitch Volume 1: Into a Dark Adventure is my newest release and now has an
audiobook as well. Afterwards there will be Hell’s Glitch Volume 2: The Glitch Fiends followed
by Hell’s Glitch Volume 3: Brotherhood and IMMORtAL_Kalika Episode 2, along with another
Psy-Hunters book. I also have some free content that’ll be available on Wattpad, Dreame,
Royal Road, and other story platforms.
4) Do you have advice or tips for Indie Authors?
Always write. Never stop writing. And always challenge yourself and better your craft. That
always comes first.
5) What influenced you as a writer?
Loads of great fiction from the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s and early 2000’s along with an eventful
childhood. And writers such as JK Rowling, George RR Martin, Roald Dahl, Yoshihiro
Togashi, Akira Toriyama, Paul Dini, and Bruce Timm have had the biggest impact on me as a
writer along with plenty more that I can’t think of. R.I.P. to Kentaro Miura.
