Tell us your latest news: While I will be the first to admit that I am more comfortable writing short stories, I am currently working on a Transgressive Fiction Novella.

When and why did you begin writing? I first began writing at the age of 3 years old. My Father would have me read Books and write Essays about what I learned from them. He was forced to quit school in the 8^th grade to tend the fields and wanted to make sure that I had every opportunity afforded me.

When did you first consider yourself a writer? I believe I considered myself a writer while in Grammar School. They Held a Young Author’s Competition and I entered it. I was selected to represent our school at the conference. I have since found that old book, about bullying, edited it, and have put it up on Amazon. It is called THE ZOOPS.

What inspired you to write your first book? My First Novel is actually an Antholgy, and is Titled Dr. Sadistic’s House of Whorrors. My Editor actually helped me to come up with the title. Dr. Sadistic is a Character in a few of the stories, and the word “Whorror” is a Genre Blur of Erotica, Horror and Satire.

 Are there any new authors that have grasped your interest? Matt Shaw, I really love his style, and Dona Fox, she is spellbinding.

 What are your current projects? I am working on a script and a novella, and Myself, which is a Job in and of itself.

 Name one entity that you feel supported you outside of family members: My buddy Shane. , T.S. Woolard. I went through a rough patch where it just seemed like I was odd man out, and One day all my support system had vanished, but Shane stuck by my side , and even when I became involved in my community doing a local event for charity and became too bust for social activity, I manged to keep that connection going. It kept me sane..

 Do you see writing as a career? I see myself doing it until I grow old and wither.
