And now for the in depth questions :)
RJ Palmer
Is there a work of your own of which you are particularly fond? Why?
Kenneth Paul Jones
The Pit of Raeben; The Final lie of Gelon Part II is my favorite as the sword named Solareth is forged to reek havoc upon all it touches. Neither good nor evil, it serves its own agenda... an insatiable blood thirst.
RJ Palmer
What is your favorite part of the writing process? Your least favorite?
Kenneth Paul Jones
I live for entwining the reader as fully in the tale as possible. My goal has been to write a believable second person, real time narrative... if only for a paragraph or two.
RJ Palmer
Describe in your own words (for there can be no other way) what direction it is to which you aspire when it comes to your work. Where do you want your work to take you?
Kenneth Paul Jones
It's never been about me or how I might transpire but about promoting a breath of pause within a reader; a moment where they shift their stance to envision other opportunities; outcomes; and ways of dealing with, not just adversity, but their peers as a whole.
RJ Palmer
Most writers have a favorite genre when it comes to reading that is not necessarily the genre in which they write, do you write in your favorite genre? If so, why? If not, why not?
Kenneth Paul Jones
My favorite book is The Silmarillion by JRR Tolkien; the tale of Beren and Luthien in particular slays me... so, I would have to answer; an emphatic yes.
RJ Palmer
Do you have a favorite quote from a writer that you use for inspiration? What is it and why?
Kenneth Paul Jones
"The important thing is to be able, at any given moment, to sacrifice what we are for what we might become."
Charles Dubois
Though the quote has now been accredited to Charles Du Bos... a critic of literature... it stills speaks to the nature of humanity and all that we must accept in striving to flourish unselfishly.
RJ Palmer
Some writers tend to have a unique step in their writing process that has nothing whatsoever to do with the actual writing but has everything to do with inspiration or balance. Most people would call it a little bit OCD. Do you have such a step? Would you care to share what it is?
Kenneth Paul Jones
Well, I've really only written one book up to this point... though it has been divided into three parts, and I shall likely say the same thing after six more parts are written... BUT... I wrote what I thought to be the most exciting chapter first. I entitled it "Chapter 12: Solareth and The Twelfth son of Ossimer". It turned out to be Chapter 22 or so... though, for the most part, it otherwise it remains unchanged.
