Where did you grow up, and how did this influence your writing?
I grew up in the small town of Carbondale, Kansas. There wasn't anything to do growing up, so I spent my time with a few friends, and reading. So, the small town influenced my love of reading, and the love of reading influenced my desire to be a writer.
What's the story behind your latest book?
Ragged Edge comes from my interest in the supernatural, mythology, world religions, and ancient religions. I spend a considerable amount of time reading in all of those subjects and each went into writing this book. I also slipped in a bit of my knowledge on Serial Killers. That's maybe an unhealthy fascination but it's there. In a small dose. I'm not crazy, I promise.
