3Q’s – Daniel Volpe goes to great lengths to be beautiful!
Ok, I’m going to level with you. You see that bright and shiny RED 3Q’s logo I made (yeah it’s horribly amateurish but that’s the point. This is DIY and I wanted a punk DIY logo to fit!), well the red is supposed to signify the start of season two of 3Q’s! BUT – the reality is – when I reached out to start inviting people to season two, some of them had pressing release dates and as you know – I’m here to support and encourage and promote!
Today’s author was one such invitee who mentioned in his reply that he actually had a new release dropping TODAY! JULY 14th! So, I decided I’d post it today and try and draw some eyes his way and to his work!
As you all know – 3Q’s features three questions and a fun fourth and for season two we got some new ones to keep those reading these guessing!
So, without further wait – welcome, Daniel Volpe!
Steve: What does your writing time look like? Do you try to write at the same time each day? Do you have a word count you attempt to hit?
Volpe: Most of my writing is done between 5 am and 6 am. I’m an early bird, and I always allocate some time on weekday mornings to write. I will occasionally write on the weekends, but that’s usually if the family is away. I don’t have a daily word count limit, but my rough goal is around 20k monthly.
Steve: If you started a series and for some reason had to have another author finish it, who would you choose?
Volpe: I think an author that has a similar style to mine and would really fall into my work would have to be Brian Keene. Our styles are simple, pure storytelling, without a lot of flourish and fluff. Just straight-up, pulpy horror that’s going to entertain.
Steve: Tell me about your newest release (novel/story/poem/novella) and why someone should read it!
Volpe: My newest release, PLASTIC MONSTERS, is a story about a woman obsessed with beauty and the lengths she’s willing to go to achieve it. It also follows a disgraced plastic surgeon, who wants one last hurrah. It really plays on our society and the pressure we put on young women to obtain this unrealistic goal of “beauty”. It’s available on Amazon in ebook, paperback, and hardcover, with signed copies coming soon to danieljvolpehorror.com.
Steve: Bonus question! If they made a movie about your life, what actor or actress would you suggest they get to play you?
Volpe: If someone was foolish enough to spend money telling a story about my life, I’d have to pick Shia LaBeouf as my actor. He has range and just the right level of instability to play.
Awesome! Thank you so much, Daniel! All the best with launch day!
