Describe your book ‘Engaging the
Sons of Darkness’ in 30 words or less.
A fictional
novel set deep in the Jack Fork Mountains of Oklahoma, were the forces of evil
have set up an elaborate operation to take over the entire world.
What was the hardest part of writing
your book?
The hardest
part for me was not actually writing the book but rather the editing and proof
reading of the book. I wrote the book in
only 36 days but it took twice that long with the editing process.
What books have had the greatest
influence on you?
Of course
the Bible is the one book that has influenced me throughout my life, but there
are a variety of others which have helped in the area of influence. Gone With the Wind has always been my
favorite all time book as well as the books of Stephen King and Dean Koontz.

market your book?
I have gone
on a three state book tour; I utilize the internet and social networking sites
as well as speaking engagements to market my book.
How do you spend your time when you
are not writing?
Wow that
question could take all day to answer. I
am constantly engaged in some form of activity either I am counseling, nursing,
attending classes of some sort or ministering/speaking around the area.
What are you working on next?
Right now I
am writing a sequel to Engaging the Sons of Darkness that is entitled Yoked by
Darkness. This one is taking a little
longer to write but I should have it finished within the next three months.
