Welcome Scott thanks for taking part today
You are so welcome thanks for having me .
TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT YOURSELF
I am fascinated by arts, creativity and human behavior. I strive to further experience it via my own endeavors, particularly my writing.
Tell us a little about your books
They are dark urban fantasy set in Central Europe, dealing with a 'hidden' threat to humanity's very existence.
If you didn't write what would you be doing for a living
I don't write for a living. Maybe someday.
Does your family support your writing
Yes.
What is your writing style like
I tend to be verbose, descriptive, detailed. Some might say I sometimes dabble in purple prose. I also don't much believe in dumbing down or spoon feeding.
What aspect of the writing/ publishing do you like and what aspect do you dislike
I dislike that there is so much chaff out there. I like pretty much everything else.
do you hide secrets in your books that those you know you can figure out .
I sure do. Some of them, you don't even have to know me to figure out.
If you had to do something different as a teenager to make you a better writer what would that one thing be
Network and stay in writing groups. Take more creative writing courses.
Do you believe in writers block
Yes, but I also believe it can be overcome. Water erodes mountains.
On average how long does it take for you to write a book
About a year
