My most recent book, Lunchtime Author, came about because so many people asked me how I was able to finish my first book, Sushi Wars, a Star Wars parody when I was a busy executive, father, and husband. I wanted to relay that process to help other busy writers.

If I have an idea I simply cannot shake or forget about, I know I need to write it out. That is when the creativity flows. I also get inspired to write when I listen to certain genres of music.

I am working on two writing projects. One book is based on some of my professional career in product development. The other is in sci-fi humor.

Buy my book Lunchtime Author and it fully explains my writing process and provides the help you need to get a book written despite how busy you are.

Being a writer is a creative process and we all need creativity in some form. For me, this is an outlet for my creative energy. It is a fantastic feeling when you near the end of a writing project and then hold a book in your hands, that you toiled over for months.

In my book, Lunchtime Author, I explain that I feel writer's block is a choice. As an author, you have a choice to simply write. It may not be good. In fact, it may be awful but I find that if I choose to write when I don't know what to write anyway, the writing starts to flow and then the good stuff arrives soon thereafter.
