I recently was interviewed (actually, it was a while ago, but they just got around to posting it) by a site that focuses on authors. Here’s just a small sampling of the interview:
What is your most recent book? Tell us a bit about it.
I love to write about politics, but my latest book is actually part of a series on video games. Known as Game Freaks 365’s Review Guide, it is a collection of reviews from my video game website of the same name. GameFreaks365 has been around since 2003, going on its seventh year April 19. Currently, I have three versions: one for the PS3, Wii and Xbox 360. I’ve found that people can never get enough outside advice when it comes to their purchasing decisions. Getting expert advice on a topic is important when you are dealing with a limited budget for recreational purposes. That’s what these guides are for. I want to help people make wise choices and buy games that they know that they will like.
How did you know you wanted to be a writer? How did you get started?
Writing has been something that I have enjoyed since I was a little kid. I used to have my aunt dictate stories before I even started school or could put pen to paper. Having the opportunity to write several books has been a real privilege for me. It’s something that I wouldn’t mind doing for a long time to come. Most of my experience has come from learning on my own – writing reviews for Game Freaks 365 or putting the rambling thoughts in my head about politics on a blog post. It seems like an odd marriage. But they are two topics that interest me the most. Hopefully my readers feel that I contribute something to the dialogue.
