Q: What inspired you to start writing?

A: I’ve written my entire life (poetry, short stories, etc. I decided to make it my career a few years ago, and took the risk by devoting my life, time, and finances to writing.

Q: What is your favorite genre to write?

A: Personally, I prefer Contemporary Romance and/or Erotica which has a HEA.

Q: Read?

A: I prefer fast-paced book with a tremendous amount of angst.

Q: What will we find on your bookshelves?

A: Oh boy. Hold please….Mark Twain’s Works, Selected Literary and Political Papers of Woodrow Wilson, Cast the First Stone, Robin Hood, Closing the Ring by Winston Churchill, The Days of McKinley by Margaret Leach, A Bridge Too Far by Ryan, The Caine Mutiny by Herman Wouk, The Blue and Grey buy Commager. (This list was taken from what’s currently on my bookshelf, in order without any exclusions)

Q: What writer/Book speaks to your soul?

A: The Big Book. (Alcoholics Anonymous)

Q: Why?

A: It keeps me sober and gives me hope my head is screwed on straight.

Q: What was your inspiration for your book/books?

A: A desire to write a great story. That’s the only inspiration I need to get started. Anticipation of my readers enjoying my finished work continues to drive me until the story is finished.

Q: Do you write from your own experiences?

A: Yes.

Q: If yes, how does this book relate to your life?

A: All my books relate to my life. Am I the character or Hero in the book? No, I am afraid I am not. Does he (or even she) express my thoughts, beliefs, and wisdom (or ignorance)? Absolutely. But not always. To think I can be every one of my characters or have or harbor their thoughts and feelings would be ludicrous – my characters range from one end of the spectrum to the other.

Q: Do you listen to music for inspiration when writing?

A: Yes. I have a playlist of roughly 200 songs that plays. Same songs every time. Over and over roughly 20 hours a day.

Q: What type?

A: Everything from Bob Dylan to Houndsmouth.

Q: Which of your books/characters relates most to you?

A: They all do. I would say if I had to pick one who almost mirrors my personality, it would be Shane Dekkar from Undefeated. From my expressions and attitude, Erik Ead from Baby Girl series.

Q: Are there any other Genres you would like to write? It looks like you have written a Fighter Erotic Romance, A BDSM romance, A MC romance, A Ménage romance & Oh and what was Confessions of a Smut Author?

A: Paranormal – I doubt I’ll make this leap.

Dark- Yes, I have written dark. To some degree, I enjoyed it. My wife, however, said she hated me when I wrote it, and demanded I never write another. I’m similar to a method actor, and I become my characters. Let me tell you, to become Ryan Capshaw was a very ugly thing.

Rock Star Romance – Yes.

Science Fiction – Yes, it’s possible. Probable? I have no idea.

Q: What message, if any, would you like readers to get from your book(s)?

A: Every book I write includes life lessons, inspiration, and spiritual undertones. They can take from them what they wish and leave the rest.

Q: What book do you wish you had written yourself?

A: The Bible.

Q: What draws you to the Biker/MC scene?

A: It’s a lifestyle. I’ve lived it for a lifetime.

Q: Do you ride? What kind of bike?

A: Yes. Harley. There’s a photo on my Amazon bio.

Q: Have you ever been a member of an MC?

A: Yes.

Q: What would you like readers to know about you?

A: Often, my readers are reluctant to approach me personally on social media sites. I am a normal person, no different than any of my readers. My profession doesn’t in any way separate me from anyone.

Q: What do/did you do for a living before writing?

A: Project manager for a commercial construction firm, mechanical engineering.

Q: Is BDSM something you are into IRL? And, if you are I the lifestyle how long have you been in the life?

A: BDSM is a broad stroke of a paint brush. I believe everyone is ‘into’ BDSM in some respect. Does this mean I have a red room of pain? No. DO I have a whip? No. Am I abusive? Never. Does the element of some of these things I write excite me? Absolutely. And for me to say no, I’d be (no differently than anyone else) a liar.

Q: Have you/would you carry on a long term D/s relationship or is it just a playtime enjoyment?

A: D/s relationships are a commitment, and in my opinion cannot be properly maintained as playtime fun.

Q: What is your toy/implement of choice?

A: My mind.

Q: Do you have any tattoos or piercings?

A: From head to toe, including fingers.

Q: IRL, do you like a partner with tattoos or piercings?

A: I like a partner who I am able to connect with mentally, physically, and sexually. (my wife). What she has on her skin, head, face, ears, belly button, etc. is irrelevant.

Q: Have you been with a partner with genital piercings? Or tattoos?

A: No. Yes, my wife has a full sleeve of tattoos.

Q: Can you explain the benefits of genital piercings?

A: Really?

Q: The Ménage book that you wrote Threefold was a little different than most of the Ménage books that I have read in that yes, there were 3 people 2 males & 1 woman but, they never had sex at the same time. They all knew about each other and lived together. I thought that was a little unusual but, good and went along with the story. Would you ever write a ménage book with them all having sex at the same time?

A: Absolutely, if it fit the characters. In that particular book, with those characters at that specific time, for me to write that into the story would have been inaccurate. My books, if nothing else, are accurate.

Thank you for taking the time to answer our questions. We look forward to reading, reviewing and featuring your next book!
