What I would not like is to be ignored. I write from the heart. I don't write for me. I write for my readers.

I was a businessman for 16 years of my life, so when I started writing, I wanted to keep my literary identity separate.

Writing helps me create a different world that I can escape to.

I want to be remembered as a storyteller more than someone who had something meaningful to say.

I am a businessman at the end of the day. I have grown up with Excel sheets. I start out writing my novel with spreadsheets and the milestones in each chapter highlighted.

My attention span is very limited, and I watch just one or two movies a year.

I work in a business environment forty hours a week, and writing is what I do to unwind. It allows me to transport myself to a happy place where I can indulge my hopes, beliefs, aspirations and fantasies. It also allows me to live and breathe a topic for eighteen months while I'm researching and writing.
