Interview with Enrique Miguel Tarazona

Published 2015-08-16.
What inspired you to become a writer?
I saw a paper and a pen, and a dog counting to ten. Who knows? A blank page is a powerful magnet, begging to be filled.
When did you first start writing?
It was probably in high school, started dabbling and wondering about infinite possibilities. But mostly, I had nothing to do, because all my teams sucked, except for the Islanders.
What is the greatest joy of writing for you?
I suppose it may have something to do with expressing a connection with some source. Or, I just like spinning a tale.
What do your fans mean to you?
Fans? Oh, yes, the silent majority. They are great.
Who are your favorite authors?
I remember Gore Vidal saying he was not a big reader. If that was good enough for him, certainly it is good enough for me. But, I tend to favor the old guys, Victor Hugo, Jacob Boehme. Plus, good old Mario Puzo.
When you're not writing, how do you spend your time?
When I am not writing, I spend my time communicating with aliens. They tell me all sorts of things, except when will the Mets win The World Series.
