Smashwords Interview

Where did you grow up, and how did this influence your writing?
I was born and raised on Staten Island, New York, and the only way I could really say about how it influenced my writing was the location of my stories. I know Staten Island is largely unknown to many, despite being the fifth borough of New York City, so I decided to make it the setting of most of my story ideas to let people know that it exists. So far, I have Staten Island as the main location of my first book. Someday, I'll add other books to that list if I think it is necessary.
When did you first start writing?
I've been writing since I was very young. I used to dictate children's stories to my parents because I couldn't write full sentences yet. I began to be serious about being a published as I got older, especially in my twenties. It was just something that always in me and I knew I would someday write a book.
