Thanks for your question. The thriller genre was the first I considered. I suppose I was motivated by the dozens of thrillers I read with fairly predictable endings. So I set out to write books with lots of twists and turns and what I call switch-backs--twists so extreme that they contain a twist within a twist. I try my best to make the endings of my books unpredictable. For some time I have been contemplating writing historical fiction; I hope to start my first book in that genre in the coming months. I suppose it will be more literary fiction in style than the commercial fiction you find with the current Vanguard series.(less)

As a part-time writer, as many of us are, my problem, where not getting any writing done, tends to stem from a lack of time.(less)
