Interview with Joe DiBuduo

Published 2014-02-28.

What inspires you to get out of bed each day?

To write what I may have dreamed or thought about during the night.

When you're not writing, how do you spend your time?

I paint, sculpt, and watch movies.

How do you discover the ebooks you read?

I don't read any. I listen to them.

Do you remember the first story you ever wrote?

The first story I ever wrote was about homosexuals and it inspired me to become a writer after I turned 66.

How do you approach cover design?

I make several different covers in photoshop.

What do you read for pleasure?

Anything.

(5.00 from 1 review)

Content in this book was banned from a college classroom—the same college classroom that required the reading Eve Ensler's The Vagina Monologues. When Joe DiBuduo realized how reticent his own college professor and most men were to talk about penises, he felt obligated to share his own opinions and experiences with the male appendage.
