What are you working on at the moment? Please give us a sneak peek. I am waiting for my prequel to be edited. The title is: “The Massey Massacre”. It gives the origin of one of the Werewolf Hunters in my novel Globes Disease. Do you work to outline or plot you prefer just where an idea t you? an or do see akes My first novel was a seat of the pants thing. It started as a short story, that turned into a novella that turned in to many novellas and it was eventually suggested to combine them into a novel. The prequel was an outline. It is my “Synchronicity”. I used it to excise a lot of demons and also confront subjects I normally wouldn’t write let alone read. Which actor / actress would you like to see playing the lead character from your most recent book? (Laughing) Most authors do not get that choice but there are main characters that I think would fit. • Kristofer Hivju as Quake • Jesse L. Martin as Terry • Eva Marcille as Goldy • Rika Ishikawa as Jodi • Amanda Redman as Diana • Cheyenne Jackson as Arty • Alexander Suvorov as Vlad • Paul Bettany as Chuck • Teri Hatcher or Vanessa Williams as Dr. Von Shelley • Carl Weathers as General Austin (After meeting and talking with him, I think he’d be perfect for this Character, so much so that I wrote an origin script with him in mind. Something to do as a comic or short film.) Writing and publishing a book takes a lot of dedication. Please tell us about your writing habits. Do you write full - time or part - time? I will have to say part-time, but 24-7. My brain doesn’t shut off. I have AD/HD and a form of OCD. Do you have a special time to write or how is your day structured? I have post its, napkins, pieces of paper, text, notes on computer and phone…I am constantly jotting things down. But once I get on a role, I try to write in the early morning or late at night depending on work and my family. Do you write every day, 5 days a week or as and when? Everyday, in my head and in my sleep, the challenge is getting it down on something before I forget.
