What
do you think makes a great story? Something
that makes the reader care. Otherwise, you’re just writing for
yourself.
What
inspired you when writing The
Diary of an Immortal
(1945-1959)?Usually,
it was a glass of Tuscan Sangiovese.
What
are your ambitions for your writing career? Full time? Part
time?Full
time.
When
did you decide to become a writer? I’ve
been writing for as long as I remember. I wrote my first newspaper
article when I was twelve. Even though this is my first novel, I’ve
written hundreds of articles for the CCIN network (Whisky.com,
Nashville.com, Traveler.com, etc). On 12/07/16, The Daily Beast
featured my article “The Man Who Tried To Stop Pearl Harbor” to
commemorate the 75th
anniversary of the attack.
When
writing The
Diary of an Immortal
(1945-1959)
did
anything stand out as particularly challenging? Yes.
My novel is about someone experiencing the emotional, physical and
spiritual effects of immortality. I had to realistically put myself
in his shoes and, at first, it was quite difficult. However, over
time it became easier.
How
did you come up with the story of The
Diary of an Immortal
(1945-1959)?It
came to me in a very bizarre dream. In the middle of the night, I
wrote it down. I’m glad I did because when I awakened in the
morning I’d completely forgotten about it. I believe this happens
to a lot of people and that is why you should always have a pen and
paper by your bed. When your subconscious mind speaks you should
listen.
What
do you like to do when not writing?
I’m
a professional drummer. I also love to travel, especially to Europe.
