When you're not writing, how do you spend your time?
In my day job, I work as an editor for a book publisher so when I'm not working on my own writing, I'm working with authors on theirs -- developing their book proposals and manuscripts and helping them realize their dreams of getting published. But I also have a lot of outside interests, including travel, food/wine, literature, art, music, dance, theatre, fashion, watching European football (Arsenal and Real Madrid are my teams), playing tennis, horseback riding, and current affairs. I like to stay as well-rounded as I possibly can. The world is a fascinating place. I want to enjoy it.
How do you discover the ebooks you read?
Gotta be honest...I'm actually much more of a print book kinda guy. Call me a traditionalist. But I (obviously) appreciate the power and convenience of e-books. The e-book platform gives authors an excellent opportunity to get their work read and enjoyed by a truly international audience in ways that didn't exist ten or even five years ago. Smashwords is a great e-book venue.
