ALL ROYALTIES ARE DONATED TO THE NAMCHA WAYWARD FOR ANIMALS- A NO-KILL SHELTER.

~~~AUTHOR INTERVIEW #5~~~




Geri: Have you had the pleasure of discussing any of your books with a fan?


Gary:    I am ready and waiting for that. lol. But I haven't been rewarded to see reviewers responses via posts. Speaking of speaking 'verbally', I enjoyed my first verbal interview not too long ago with Blog Radio host Jennifer Chase, who is also an award winning crime author. I was able to discuss writing with her during the interview and was excited to learn she has a degree in criminology because my latest novel, 'GODS OF THE MACHINES' is as every bit a crime novel as it is a science fiction story. But if a reader, wants to contact me by email, I can be reached at venstar@yahoo.com.

Geri:   What motivates you to write?                                  


Gary:   I would have to say it is a love for storytelling. I am always inspired by a great
             plot, coupled with great characters, whether it is in a novel, movie or television
             series. I am constantly motivated because of that.

Geri:    Are you exactly where you want to be in your journey of writing?   


Gary:     In a way, considering the last six years, I have been fortunate enough to 
                come up with seven full-length novels, plus short stories. I can look back
                at them and see a progression, hopefully finding new ways to improve, 
                and keep my storytelling evolving. I like to mix genres, and because of that,
                I strive to make each new novel different, and stand alone from the previous
                ones.

                                                                         








Geri:   Who has inspired you the most to write?


Gary:    If I had to narrow it down to one person for this question, I will pick
              author Dean Koontz

     Geri:  What would you consider to be the highlight of your writing career?


     Gary:    I would say being included in a robot anthology called 'Thank you, Death 
                   Robot', a collection of short stories. I have a great love for androids and
                   having my short story 'Growing Pains' included in this was exciting.

                                                                         






 Geri:  It has been an honor and a Great Pleasure to work with you over the years. Your
            talent is indeed Amazing. Wishing you much success. Thank you for your time.




Gary:    You're Welcome.
