3Q’s – Kelvin Allison gets us all twisted in a knot!
Welcome to another fun 3Q’s today!
Kelvin is a talented author, hilarious meme sharer and all around supportive guy. It’s been great seeing him release so much fun new stuff!
I’m super happy to welcome Kelvin to the 3Q’s hot seat today!
Welcome!
Steve: What does your writing time look like? Do you try and write at the same time each day? Do you have a word count you attempt to hit?
Kelvin: Nighttime is the right time for me. I work from home and also home school two of our four children, so day times are often extremely hectic. However, when the clan have all gone to bed at night, usually about 6pm, the wife included, I sit and write, often through till the early hours. I try and hit 8 pages a night, sometimes I do more, some days I crash after a few words.
Steve: You end up at an estate sale and discover an unpublished manuscript from an author you love. Do you keep it just for yourself or do you share it with the world?
Kelvin: I’d share it. I know that sounds all goody goody, but I am a reader first and foremost and these things are written to be read. I can’t think of anything more heartbreaking that a book with no-one to love it
Steve: Tell me about your newest release (novel/story/poem/novella) and why someone should read it!
Kelvin: On October 1st my monster novel Knot; Book One of the Underpeople is released. It is built on fond memories of watching Ron Perlman and Linda Hamilton in beauty and the beast, and the fascination I had with the underground city and tunnels that the beast and his people called home. Also, Cabal by the great Clive Barker and the film it spawned Nightbreed, are two of my favourite things in life. I love the idea that monsters can be the good guys too. If you loved Beauty and the Beast or Nightbreed, you might like Knot.
Steve: Bonus Question! You wake up in a comic book. What is your comic book character and what is your superpower?
Kelvin: Oh, I love comics and have been reading them since about ’78 when I was 5, and me and my wife used to own a comic shop in the UK where we live. Right, my name would be Clone, and I would be able to assume the form and voice of anyone that I wanted to. Oh the fun I would have
Oh, great answer! Love that one!
Thanks again for doing this Kelvin!
