Who are your favorite authors?
I write sci-fi thrillers, so it's natural that I read and review sci-fi and books involving mystery, suspense, and action. Some of my books have a dystopian flavor. I discovered dystopian sci-fi a long time ago and admired the old-timers like Wells and Huxley to classic writers like Bradbury, Christopher, Kornbluth, etc. As a writer, I felt there was a niche to be filled that combines sci-fi with thriller--more so than what's called techno-thrillers because my books generally have more science and technology. But I read in many genres, including non-fiction.
What inspires you to get out of bed each day?
The pleasure of being alive. And now, as a full-time writer, enjoying another day pounding the keys in my constant quest to entertain readers. Oh, and don't forget those mugs of cafe colombiano--an addiction that my muses OK because it helps the words flow from the keyboard.
