Which character do you enjoy writing the most as a writer and why? If choosing a favorite character is like choosing a favorite child, which character do you find requires the most attention and detail from you as a writer?The character I most enjoyed writing was Neville Kershaw — the somewhat shonky lawyer who becomes embroiled in the case surrounding Zachary’s birth. There was something fascinating about exploring how a mix of bad luck and poor judgement could cause a once-promising legal career to unravel. What made Neville compelling for me was the chance to chart his journey — from a man on the professional and moral brink, to someone who, prompted by real events, takes a long hard look at himself and sets out to reinvent his life.Writing Neville allowed me to delve into themes of redemption, regret, and resilience. He’s flawed, yes — but also deeply human. That complexity made him a joy to brin...View More

Have you been able to incorporate your previous experience in [jobs/education] in your writing?Yes, I have incorporated my extensive travels and work overseas in my writing. In my first book, The Blackmail Enigma, I wrote extensively about Senegal in Africa, where I lived and worked for 5 years. In Where Sunflowers Stand I was able to rely on having lived in Moscow for 2 years, working. I often visited Ukraine, and this war is near and dear to my heart.View More

Which character do you enjoy writing the most as a writer and why? If choosing a favorite character is like choosing a favorite child, which character do you find requires the most attention and detail from you as a writer?My favorite character has changed with the stories. Of course, Travis Britt was my favorite until he died in book 4 (Sacrifice and Service). His son Reid was a favorite. He began as a shy kid, abused by his siblings and loved by his father. He grew into a brave, bold, compassionate character that God trusted as his child. Luke is a favorite with his outgoing joyful personality. His love for his little brother Reid is admirable. James requires a lot of attention. He struggles, physically and emotionally and keeping up with his growth can be challenging. We first saw James when his mother was murdered at age six. He fought the bullies on the school playground, went to war, was injured, came ho...View More

How did you become an author and get published? Share your experience.I became an author not because I set out to write books, but because I felt compelled to give shape to ideas that had been evolving across decades of work. For over 25 years, I worked in education, policy, and sustainability — often at the intersection of systems that rarely spoke to one another. Over time, patterns began to emerge. I saw the urgent need to bridge education, ESG values, and skill-building into something more cohesive, more transformational.Writing became the way I made sense of that complexity — and more importantly, a way to share it with others who were wrestling with similar questions.As for publishing, I took a research-led, purpose-driven approach. The Global Goals ...View More

When you're working on a book and a new idea pops up, should you pursue it immediately (also known as 'UP syndrome') or finish your current project first? What do you think is the best course of action?I think most authors of whatever genre have an ideas book or computer file to record ideas that often pop into your head at the most unusual times - if you don't record it you will forget. I do read several books at the same time, but couldn't write in such a fashion; so record it for the future and concentrate on the project at hand would be my advice.View More

What have you found to be most challenging about writing in [genre]?It took me five years to complete my book, “The Space Traveller’s Lover”, from the first idea to publication. The process of writing, reviews, illustrations, and interior design was very time-consuming, but it was also very satisfying as I achieved every milestone.With numerous characters and subplots, organising the entire book was a challenge. To manage this complexity, I drew out scenes and the characters' physiques, and created a wall chart where I could place cards summarising each chapter. This helped me create a storyboard for the beginning, middle, and end of the story.Ultimately, everything fell into place in this inspiring story of love vs. duty.View More

Instead of becoming bitter, he decides to go for justice by helping children who had suffered as he did.View More

How did you become an author and get published? Share your experience.I didn't do it. I just started writing one day, and a few years later, the book was ready. But I never became an author, in the sense that I don't dedicate myself to it. Nor was I published; I did it myself through Amazon and other tools for personal use. I am not, nor do I feel like an author, nor am I, nor do I feel like I'm published.View More

What inspired your journey as an author, and how has that shaped your voice?I am proud of the country I was born to and within which I live but how this country came to be is generally presented in our schools in a manner that is as boring and un-entertaining as possible. I believe if there was more entertainment involved more people would know the history and the value of that history and the county’s presence. As a result, I wright what I call “enlightening entertainment”.More people would understand the development, exploration and discoveries of North America if they understood the contributions of the Hudson’s Bay Company, the North West Company and the American Fur Company. However, because today’s entertainment is often focused on areas or events th...View More
