Dan Petrosini interview

AUTHOR INTERVIEW

A little introduction:

Dan is a USA Today and Amazon best-selling author who wrote his first story at the age of ten and enjoys telling a story or joke.

Dan gets his story ideas by exploring the question; What if?

In almost every situation he finds himself in, Dan explores what if this or that happened? What if this person died or did something unusual or illegal?

Dan’s non-stop mind spin provides him with plenty of material to weave into interesting stories.

A fan of books and films that have twists and are difficult to predict, Dan crafts his stories to prevent readers from guessing correctly. He writes every day, forcing the words out when necessary and has written over twenty-five novels to date.

It’s not a matter of wanting to write, Dan simply has to.

When did your love of books begin?

My parents were both big readers and passed their love of books to me as a kid.

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

I remember reading stories adventure stories as a kid and wondered if I could create stories that people would lose themselves in.

How have you found the process for becoming an author?

It's a continual learning process. I've been at it for over 20 years and it's gotten easier, though never easy.

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

TO write EVERY DAY or as regularly as possible. If you want to be a writer, you have to write.

Tell us about your book/books:

After genre hopping, I've settled into writing mystery novels. I always loved reading a mystery where it is impossible to predict the end or killer and I've learned how to do it.

What do you love about the writing/reading community?

They are selfless. Always willing to help.

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

Read more and interact with authors, it's the highest compliment.
