Interview with PW Case

Published 2014-02-18.
What's the story behind your latest book?
When the Economy is not moving forward, I imagine that an individual is given a group of highly advanced devices to use for his own means to fight the wrongs of today's society. After Rainright discovers that he can in fact make changes in his surrounding environment by just making a small change in a situation. Given it is only an adjustment to a physical altercation, he changes the outcome in a favorably way to alter a victims dilemma. He makes plans to change a persistent problem to A) enrich himself, B) remove a dangerous adversary from the landscape, and C) fix a public health problem while contributing to a safe environment. After attending to the local issues, He decides that it is time to move on to solve the larger problem(s). Eliminating the global illegal drug operations and turning the issue of the global income inequality. There needs to be a peaceful change in the global economy and the political landscape. Rainright does this while inflicting No Harm. Proving the old adage that one man can make a difference.
What motivated you to become an indie author?
If J.K Roweling can write The Harry Potter Novels, Why can't I write what is in my thoughts?
How has Smashwords contributed to your success?
By allowing me to e-publish globally, and do it without having to pay a lot of money, just by investing my time and effort.
What is the greatest joy of writing for you?
Being able to write as a hobby while expressing by ideas about performing justice for the masses. Like Micheal Moore does in Sicko and Capitalism: A Love Story! I admire his guts to bring the injustice into the spotlight. He proved the point that if you are aware of what is really going on behind closed doors, maybe there can be changes made now that the the public is made aware that there is problem. Not by opinion but by actual proof of what is really happening behind the curtain.
What are you working on next?
Well, lets' just say that Rainright and his organization is going to take on the Global problem of Terrorism.
Who are your favorite authors?
Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury some of Steven kings writings. I'm not into horror, but the Science fiction part is intregeing.
James Clavell, Tom Clancey. For starters.
When you're not writing, how do you spend your time?
I work full time for the Department of Public Works in Milwaukee. I ride a Harley and am a HOG Member, I am also a EAA Member.
Do you remember the first story you ever wrote?
Yes, it was a sci-fi adventure of an individual who was frozen and was reawakened in a future time to cure my disease. Only to find out it was a Totalitarian Political society that had NAZI undertones. I needed to escape and find out what was happening! Perhaps change society and save it from itself. I wrote it in high school.
What is your writing process?
I write it all by hand, edit it for clarity. Research the information to see if it is accurate enough and can be backed up by facts. after having it read by those who are versed enough in the subject I'm approaching, to point out the changes I need to make. Then I commit it to MS word for proofing then e publish.
Do you remember the first story you ever read, and the impact it had on you?
I Robot. The futuristic world and what can be achieved through science and technology.
How do you approach cover design?
How to represent the story based on what I'm writing about and how the subject relates to my plot line.
What do you read for pleasure?
Well yes, but also to keep informed of what is really taking place i today's political and economic landscape. Current events I would say. Those who are uniformed about today's world will eventually suffer the consequences of our ignorance.
Describe your desk
Neat orderly and organized. Dis organization can lead to lost material and bad writing decisions.
Where did you grow up, and how did this influence your writing?
A small suburb of Milwaukee county, in the 60's, 70's and 80's.
What inspires you to get out of bed each day?
Hoping to make a difference in the world I live in and maybe inspire someone that there is a lot to live for. When you have goals, there is a motivation to achieve them. No matter how small. large or indifferent from someone else's. It's your life, do something with it. Perform a miracle, change someones perspective, encourage positive growth in the world of chaos. Make a small difference like planting a flower or finishing a project long neglected. Moving forward is better than staying where your at. Remember, if you don't like where your at, make a small positive change. You just might feel better and that will lead to more positive changes!
What are your five favorite books, and why?
Shogun, Star Trek series, Hunt for Red October, I-Robot and Back to the Future I, II and III (even thought they are movies).
