Not really. Eventually, something good will come out. Peter May goes does something similar in his Lewis Trilogy. Now, I call Virginia Beach home. I go back to that book time and time again. Where do you live now? I finished the first draft of the book in early July and had the final version […]

  When did you start writing the book? I typically noodle a story for anywhere between a day and about 6 weeks. I want to give kids strong positive messages and values through my books. It takes about 4 hours to fully type a story of this length.   I have set up a charitable […]

Any advice that you would like to give to other newbies considering becoming Indie authors? Writing about how amazing the world is and how fantastic dinosaurs are. What would you like readers to know about you? You are only as good as the team around you. I might let my writing mentor or an editor […]

Henry Pun-Off World Championships. I’m a pun master, having competed in the 2017 O. I knew I wanted to incorporate puns into my flow. Infusing wordplay and social media allusions throughout came easily to me, and made writing this book super fun!   The Back Flap End of Interview: We all know how important it […]

I mean, we had reached the point where mutually assured destruction (MAD) was the order of the day. Andrei Heilemann, the Soviet scientist who defects to the West, was my neighbor down the street, the colleague at work, the man whom I knew, not as a brilliant nuclear scientist, but simply a fellow I could […]

It’s also one of the most noticeable things when reading a book, and the one that separates amateurs from pros. One name comes highly recommended for solving nutty cases. How long did it take you to write it? It should be a no-brainer for them given the obvious success, and would open up bigger opportunities […]

Do you outline? Do you have a marketing plan for the book or are you just winging it? Sometimes I even like to listen to Monks chanting. Each book in the trilogy is based on the main character, Grace Jackson. I did a lot of research and in the day and age we are living […]

About Publishing Did you submit your work to Agents?   Who else would write about a snail trying to win a race? I do, however, do a lot of preliminary ruminating, and have a pretty developed idea of where I want my story to go before I begin to write. I hope that it will […]

After the rejection I decided to self-publish. I find that listening to soft music helps bring out the moment that the character is experiencing, but a lot of times I have to shut the music off because when I’m writing I’m in a zone.   I started writing this book September 2016. If yes, what […]

About Writing Do you have a writing process? Do you have a target reader? For this particular book, Embracing His Empire, it was professionally created. If you haven’t finished the book, focus on that, and then work up from there. I have and sometimes I still do. I have created some of my own book […]

I enjoy reading fiction produced by John Grisham, Michael Crichton, Jack London, C.S. John Coon – 26 November 2018 The Back Flap Ron Olson is a reluctant newcomer to Deer Falls. Of course, I’ve also relied on old-fashioned word-of-mouth promotion as well. Did you get your book cover professionally done or did you do it […]

The science. Do you edit as you go or wait until you’ve finished? What are you working on now? It was done by the publishing company. Based on my background in science, medicine and army. Did you hire a professional editor? What came easily? Yes, I did. As above, no one cared about Bin Laden […]

Get your copy of   Behind the Fan from Amazon US or Amazon UK. I will only portray my woman as strong women, they kneel to no one, own their decisions and mistakes, and seldom behave. Approximately 2 years Where did you get the idea from? Although I am not adverse to fame and fortune […]

End of Interview: For more from Elizabeth, visit her website, follow her on Twitter, and like her Facebook page. After this draft,   I set it aside for six weeks (I was given that advice in Stephen King’s   On Writing.) I didn’t believe it until I set Other Systems aside and then it was […]

Observing life and researching religious organizations for families. I have a general idea of the plot and allow my characters to move in directions I had not anticipated. What made you decide to go Indie, whether self-publishing or with an indie publisher? Six years, however, during that period I was working full-time and promoting my […]

Snooki’s memoirs from Jersey Shore that did make the cut? I read voraciously in and out of my main genres, but saying that there are definitely genres I’d find more or less enjoyable. If a book has a great plot, great characters, but the grammar is less than perfect, how do you deal with that? […]

It’s 75% done, tentatively titled Rectification, an adult horror novel. I explained that life would go on without their gadgets – they disagreed. One thing I do toward the end of the editing process is to have Word read the text aloud. It helps me re-immerse myself in the story before I jump into that […]
