Guest Bio
I was born and raised in Indiana. I have three boys. My wife and I have been married for 15 years in August. I love grilling, writing, and working outside. I have six brothers and sisters. I love exploring the country and finding new spots. I have been to a few places. I have a trip planned to London this year in October. I will be in Canada multiple times next year and in India for two weeks. I am part of the prestigious program Author Allstar, for which I will be on live T.V. at the ceremony dinner in December. I am the Vice President of the Midwest Writers Guild Evansville, Indiana. I have over 300 books planned for my immersive series and will dive back into it once the map is complete for my spicy romantasy series. I have also won the International Impact Award in Teen Fantasy.

Linking to Elara
Izzy - Q: What made you switch to romantasy instead of continuing with Fantasy? A:Reader engagement poll. Was the highest votes.
Selva - Q: What inspires you to create your fantasy? Do you meditate to help visualise it? A: Doesn’t Meditate but does close his eyes while he is thinking in his head. Always loves Fantasy. Howhe see’s how the world can be
Steph - Q: How do you decide what kind of character/races he includes and why? Is there reasoning behind those chosen and those left out? A: It is on the character flow. Not set names or races in the beginning. Just writes it how it flows. Sometimes has a rough vision.
Shaun - Q: Can you put a crazy ginger that likes to bang in his next book? A: Never been asked that before so sure.
Garry - Q: So what is your next step in world domination? A: Continue to go to festivals pitch to movie producers and game designers and international tours. Translate the book into different languages and continue to publish more books.

A: It really depends on how the story flows. There are no rules. There needs to be a purpose and a reason to move the story forward.
Dianna - Q: How do you find a balance between your hectic schedule and writing. A: No good with Balance but have the support of a loving family and an amazing wife.
