 I read suspense thrillers because I like to be scared, and I write suspense thrillers because I like to scare people.
Not-entrails-on-the-floor or hacked-up-body-parts-wrapped-prettily-in-a-package type books. More like not being able to trust anyone, not even people you think you can trust type books. Books about psychological manipulation and psychotic baddies who enjoy the torment even more than the actual kill. Being scared is fun. Just ask any roller coaster or horror flick fanatic. Heck, just watching the evening news can be terrifying.
Pick up one of my books, though, and I'll guarantee you one thing: in my world, the bad guy always gets his in the end. Or the head. Or wherever it turns out to be. We don't always get the luxury of justice in real life, but every time I write a book, I get justice for all those people who couldn't. And I get to meet interesting people who I then put through hell, all in the name of entertainment. That is what I call a sweet way to make a living.
As for hobbies and interests, besides the many aspects of writing (which consumes much of my time), I love being with friends and family, whom I cherish. I read (There's a book or magazine on every flat surface in my house) and listen to spiritual books on tape, such as The Secret (Ronda Byrne) and anything by Wayne Dyer.
My beliefs are God, a positive attitude, living life to the fullest, doing unselfish things on a regular basis, small indulgences, believing in yourself, appreciating what you have, and no regrets.
