What do your fans mean to you?
Honestly I can't imagine having fans, but if I can affect someone in some small way to make lasting changes in their life then all the work has been worth it. As I've gotten older I've found that we all have some impact on each other. Young kids make changes in my life and I like to think I make the cashier's life at the chow hall a little tiny bit better. When people tell me the book has helped them with motivation or looking at the problem differently it motivates me to keep producing. So I guess in the end fans feed the fire.
What motivated you to become an indie author?
I started training Turkish airmen in the gym while I was stationed in Turkey for 2 years. Finally I trained a good friend of mine from Pakistan. He said "you changed my life." It felt awesome so I decided to write the book and maybe change another person's life.
