I'm pretty disciplined to keep the momentum of a story going by writing everyday, even if it's only a couple paragraphs or a page or two.

Generally, if you preface an interview request with, 'I'm an author writing a book,' for some reason, that seems to open a lot of doors.

Growing up with three brothers and three sisters, I was the storyteller of the family... what my mother called 'The Liar.'

Always respect Mother Nature. Especially when she weighs 400 pounds and is guarding her baby.

I subscribe to National Geographic, Scientific American, Discover, and a slew of other magazines. And it is while reading articles for pleasure and interest that an interesting What if? will pop into my head.

Whenever I start a novel, I'm always looking for two things: a bit of science that makes me go 'what if?' and a piece of history that ends in a question mark.

It ain't always rocket science, sometimes a door is just a door.
