1. What
inspired you to become an author?
It’s not
something I really aspired to, it’s just something that happened and I rolled
with it.
2. Do you
write in different genres?
Yes. I
write across the board in horror from gothic and vampire to post apocalyptic
and on rare occasions, I write in zombie. I also write hardboiled occult noir
mysteries that have a healthy dose of dark humor.
3. If yes
which is your favorite genre to write?
I enjoy
writing gothic and vampire horror quite a bit, and have loved writing
hardboiled occult noir. It’s like being able to stretch your legs and walk
around after a long trip in the car.
4. Do you
title the book first or wait until after it’s complete?
It depends on the book.
In the case of my current work, the title didn’t come until the book was in
progress. A God in a House of Crosses has been a deviant from my usual way of
working in that I’m writing down the scenes and assembling them all after the
fact and out of sequence, where typically I will write in a much more linear
fashion and see where it goes. This one is being elusive.
5. What
books/authors have influenced your life?
Ann Radcliffe, the Bronte sisters,
Stephen King, James Herbert, and Neil Gaiman
6. What
book are you reading now?
Bob Meets Same by Jaime Johnesee, Violent Violet by
Tara Vanflower, The Void Between Emotions by Sumiko Saulson, and The Maximilian
Emancipation by Charles A. Conyers, Jr.
7. What
books are in your to read pile?
The Mother
of All Monsters by Paula D. Ashe, Night Hag by Brian Barr, Prey by Tim Majka,
and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall by Anne Bronte (aka Acton Bell).
8. What is
your current “work in progress” or upcoming projects?
I’m
currently working on the fifth book in the Immortal War series, titled A God in
a House of Crosses as well as working on the third book of the Metatron
Mysteries titled Hand of Glory.
9. Is
there anything you find particularly challenging in your writing?
Quite
often I’ll have a scene playing over and over in my head for days and sometimes
months before I can capture it onto paper. I write everything in a notebook,
and for a particularly difficult scene, I’ll do sketches and storyboards of the
scene before I finally grasp it from every angle enough to write it down. It’s
like trying to catch a ghost sometimes.
