Q: As an author, what drew you to the thriller genre, and how do you think your approach to storytelling within this genre sets you apart? I am a fan of many genres. I prefer a blended story. While the heart of this story is about a cop searching for a killer, it has an element of science fiction to it. I am currently working on 5 different projects that cross the lines of normal storytelling. A futuristic tale of a school in the remote regions of the world that hides a secret (this will end up being a trilogy). A simple love story. A series about two young friends coming of age and dealing with prejudice and bullying. I science fiction story about the hero trying to fix World War 1 to save his family. The latest is a story idea about an army special forces unit that is after a terrorist but ends up in the 1860’s. Q: Can you walk us through your writing process, particularly when dealing with complex narrative elements?  My writing style is rather unorthodox. My son calls it m...
