How has your upbringing influenced your writing?
I was raised in Canada
(just outside of Toronto) by parents who believed in the value of a good
education and instilled in me both a work ethic - earning what you get in life;
and a sense of fair play - allowing all others that same right to advance
themselves. My parents loved to travel and explore new places. They loved to
read and then to discuss and to debate the merits of what they read. It made
for an environment in which I was encouraged to learn and to express myself.
When and why did you begin writing?
When and why did you begin writing?
I started writing quite young and never stopped. I suppose it went
hand-in-hand with reading. I like storytelling and the way you can create an
adventure and a setting and scenarios in which characters are tested. I love
the weaving of suspenseful moments and leaving the reader hanging and waiting
for the resolution to come. It's like a literary roller-coaster ride.
What do you consider the most challenging thing about writing?
What do you consider the most challenging thing about writing?
I usually have a beginning and an end in mind. It's everything in
between that's challenging.
Do you intend to make writing a career?

Yes, that is my intention. I've many more stories to tell.
Have you developed a specific writing style?
Have you developed a specific writing style?
After writing and publishing these 3 books in the 'Run with the Wolves'
trilogy (The Pack, The Oracle, and The Beast) - I suppose I have developed a
specific writing 'style'. I like to create empathy for my characters. Everyone
has flaws and everyone has merits. Whether they are protagonists or
antagonists, they face and deal with the trials and tribulations of life.
What is your favorite quote?
What is your favorite quote?

like a knife in the belly of every writer.
