1) I used to make up stories involving my stuffed toys. As I got older and saw the stories in movies and TV shows, I just had a desire to tell stories, too. 2) I am a reader, but not as much as I used to be. In my prime, I devoured Clive Cussler, Tom Clancy, some Alastair Maclean, and of course Jules Verne. 3) My latest work is vol. 2 of The Nemo Chronicles, entitled “The Lone Captain.” In the future, I’m planning to complete vol. 3 as well as finish up a lite-scifi novella I began some years back. 4) No advice really. Just make your work the absolute best you can. 5) My influences were movies and TV more than writers, strangely enough: Star Wars, Star Trek, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Mission: Impossible. I grew up in the TV generation, so that’s probably why.
