Q: Who do you enjoy reading?

Mostly non fiction historical books. Constantly researching for

concepts and plots; beginning with a historical event and entering

into modern times.

For a complete chronological list you can (get a pdf file here).

Q: What advice can you give a person interested in writing books?

Study authors who write in your genre and who are successful; their

writing style, structure, characterization, and plotting. It’s all

there. You don’t need to go four years to school for a degree in

writing. Ernest Hemingway studied and used the style of Tolstoy.

Thomas Wolfe delved into James Joyce. I used Alistair MacLean when I

started out, eventually moving into my own writing style which is now

copied by other authors.

Q: How has the internet affected authors and novelists?

The biggest asset of the internet to an author is for research.

Years ago we all lived in libraries. Now ninety percent of our

research is done on the internet, and it gets more expansive with each

passing day.

Q: Is there a specific audience your books are written for?

I attempt to; write to and entertain a universal audience.

back to top

Q: How can I find out more about you?

I have a brief biography page online here (Biography here). There are also many other internet sites out there that have gone into greater detail; though some of the information may have been distorted.

Q: Have you endorsed other Authors?

Dan Brown’s “Da Vinci Code”, Tom Clancy’s “Hunt for Red October”, Steven Koontz’s “Flight of the Intruder”, Larry Bond’s “Red Phoenix”, Dale Brown’s “Night Hawk”; and about sixty or seventy other authors..
