What’s your home life like?

A little chaotic
Picture

What genre(s) to you like to write? To read?

I life to read and write sci-fi and fantasy. I do read non-fiction, especially science which I think is vital for a sci-fi writer

Why did you start writing?

Too many stories in my head! They are surprisingly hard to shift..

What do you do when you’re not writing?

My day job, look after my kids, sleep...

Where do you like to go when looking for a new book to read?

I have a huge to-read pile... No idea where they come from!

At what point do you call it quits when reading a new book?

I rarely give up on a book. When I have it's due to a point of logic where a character has done something purely for plot purposes. Often it's something out of character. I know plot holes happen and characters should drive the story but characters aren't writing the plot... They certainly don't gain impossible knowledge or do something genuinely stupid just to move the story along.

Are you independently or traditionally published?

Independently, if you call Amazon KDP independent

How many books/stories have you published so far?

Just one... Supposedly the first of five. The next two in that set turned out to be really hard to write and another project came along. I will go back...

What book/story are you currently promoting or working on?

Working on "Project Selene" as a serialisation.

What’s the elevator pitch?

Good question...

Years after a world war, a defeated and occupied nation plans to strike back at its oppressors using rediscovered technology.

But there's a reason the technology didn't win them the war. Now a small group of young people will find out why...

How long have you been working on it?

Feels like forever... Only kidding, I started about 18 months ago.

When will it be available to buy? Where?

If I do make it a serialisation I'll look for a suitable blog site. We'll see where it goes from there.

How can readers find you?

People reading and commenting on my Wordpress blog would be great, same for Twitter. I would love some reviews on Amazon too; if I could arrange for it to be free for a while and coordinate with inviting in reviewers... Then I'd probably have more time on my hands than I do now!
Picture

Anything you’d like to add?

Two things! I love feedback of all kinds. My family and friends are just too nice to me, strong feedback needed too!

Also, please look at some of the great communities on Twitter. There are some goldmines of support and creativity on there.


Thank you, Alexander, for taking a moment to let us get to know you. I wish you success in all your future endeavors.
