IndieView with Robin T.W. Yuan, author of Red Bishop

The story was formulated from wondering about my grandfather’s life as a religious leader in China. I always wondered what life was like in China for my parents and grandparents and how our family ended up in America.

IndieView with Jim P. Sandras, DDS, author of Dental School Debacle

I knew in the 6th grade that I wanted to be a dentist and have always enjoyed telling funny stories. So, writing this book has allowed me to combine those two loves.

IndieView with Wendell Affield, author of Barbara: Uncharted Course Through Borderline Personality Disorder

The week before Barbara died in 2010, she changed her will and left me as her Probate Administrator. I believe that Barbara secretly wanted her story told and realized I was the most likely family member to do that.

IndieView with Chris Ritchey, author of Small Town Problems

While I just played out a discovery scene for the short story (which turned into chapter 1 of the book), for the book I liked the idea of an alien coming to a small farm town and being well received as well as representing a small town in a more realistic way than it is often portrayed.

BookView with Laurie Boris, author of Boychik

The relationship between Eli and his father came the most naturally to me. I’m not sure why. But I felt their deep connection, their respect for each other, their hopes and fears for each other.

IndieView with Andy C Wareing, author of The Haunting of Edgar Allan Poe

The story itself flowed quite easily and mostly followed a linear timeline. I really let the main characters run free and I followed along with my Mac to see where they went.

Protecting the environment and the balance of species necessary for a healthy habitat covers a lot of territory, which I address in a range of ways including original poetry and the prior noted essays.

IndieView with S.C. Jensen, author of Tropical Punch (Bubbles in Space Book 1)

I was inspired by the old 1930s pulp detective novels and wanted to try a similar style in a sci-fi setting. Bubbles Marlowe is my take on Raymond Chandler’s famous detective, Philip Marlowe.

IndieView with Phoenix Elvis Nicholson, author of An Exhaustive White Stone Compendium

I do not subscribe to the belief that any one way is perfect or better than another. My writings are enslaved to the pen and imagination alone. Reality sneaks in once in a while.

IndieView with Michael Rose, author of The Sorting Room

I drew much from my own experiences on the family farm, and from a part-time job working at an industrial laundry during my high school days. I didn’t pattern any of the full characters from real-life people, but I was inspired by the life story of a man I knew who was born in the late 1920s.
