Stjepan Varesevac Cobets interview

AUTHOR INTERVIEW


A little introduction:

My name is Stjepan Varesevac Cobets. I was born and live in Split, Croatia.


When did your love of books begin?

My love for books began when I was a little boy and started reading fairy tales. The books thrilled me as they took me to beautiful places of imagination that I could never visit.


When did you start to have the wish to become an author?

At first, I had no desire to become an author. From the fourteenth year since I wrote my first poem, I have been writing poetry for a long time because it has relaxed me. In the meantime, I wrote two novels and a few stories, but no one in Croatia was interested in publishing anything. When I collected a mountain of diaries and a lot of paper I wrote in my thirties, I decided that it would be nice to put it together in one collection of poetry. I published it in a free edition in Croatia. That was in 2005. Maybe I desired to become an author started when I published my first book in 2015 in English on Amazon, then I spontaneously published and translated my other books and stories. So in the last five years, I have become an indie author, although writing is my hobby.


How have you found the process for becoming an author?

I have always loved writing and inventing stories. It was a pleasure for me; I guess all the authors start like that. Now, I don't know if there is any process here. I think it's love for the written word.


What would you say to those wanting to become an author?

It is essential to write and learn how to write better. I am still learning to write.


Tell us about your book/books:

I never knew how to talk about my books, for my books are better talked about by readers who have read them. But I mostly write poetry, fairy tales, fables, and science fiction. I write about everything in poetry, especially about love and the world around me. As far as science fiction is concerned, Godeena's novel is military with a touch of thriller and action. The book The Dream of the Forest is a post-apocalyptic adventure and romance. Novellas The Collector is also post-apocalyptic, and Black Seeds is also military with a great deal of ecology.




What do you love about the writing/reading community?

I can create new worlds and take readers on a journey of my imagination.


If you could say anything to your readers what would it be?

Read everything you like, at least that's how I do it, if the book is interesting to me, I'll read it.

Claude Bouchard interview

AUTHOR INTERVIEW A little introduction: I’m Claude Bouchard, born, raised, and still living in the Montreal (Canada) area. In a prior life, I worked in the corporate world, mainly in human resources management. In 2008, my employer moved our jobs to India and, while I pursued other employment, I published three books I had written long before then continued to write and publish more. Along the way, I realized I had a new job, that of author, and never looked back.  When did your love of books begin? While in kindergarten, my parents had signed me up for a book of the month thing and I remember the excitement whenever a new book showed up in the mail. I moved on to the Bobbsey Twins, Hardy Boys, Tom Swift, etc. and have never stopped reading since.  When did you start to have the wish to become an author? In 1995, I had an idea for a book and wrote  Vigilante  in eight weeks. I followed up with two others in the same series over the next year or two, even did some agent querying but eve
