INTERVIEW WITH THE AUTHOR: Q: So, what makes your writing so special?A: I want to write stories that mirror the books I like to read. My top picks are usually epic fantasy, paranormal best sellers, and of course, books featuring your classic quirky, pulp-fiction heroes. Basically, anything with a lot of creepy crawly supernatural characters: mythical creatures, ancient heroes, super villains, and gods. You will find that my books focus on the ancient myths, characters, and fables we all know, fear, and love. Then twist them up and present them in new contemporary ways. Q: So, why should readers give your books a try?A: Because my writing is a present day thrill-ride, doesn't hold back and always has edge and humor. Fantastical creatures, Legends, Wizards, Werewolves, and a whole slew of other supernatural 'Freaks' abound in my stories. The plots twist and turn until the last page, and my dark sense of humor will have you laughing out loud at things you really shouldn't be laughing at.
