Name: David Allan
Age: 54
Where you live: Galloway, Ohio
1) How long have you been writing? 2 Years

2) What or who was your inspiration to write? Life-long experiences with the Paranormal.

3) Which genre do you like to read? Why? Anything Paranormal or Spiritual related. The Paranormal and Spiritual Realms has played such a large role in my life that I know no other way to live or exist.

4) Do you write this genre or others? Why? So far only Paranormal/Nonfiction. Writing true stories appeal to me because the subject matter is fact.

5) Who are your favorite authors? Jack Canfield

6) How do you create your characters? All were real people both living and deceased.

7) Do you give them names before you develop them? N/A

8) How do you choose your characters names? No, names were given at birth.

9) Do you edit as you write or after you get your manuscript written? I actually try and edit as I write chapter to chapter. Once completed I start at the beginning of the manuscript and try and catch anything spelling or editorial wise that needs correcting.

10) Do you have an agent, publisher, or self-publish? Self-Published.

11) What advice have you received to help you and what advice would you give a new writer? I can honestly say that what I have learned, I spent hours and hours in research on the internet as well as books from the Library. I spent many hours watching and/or listening to webinars and teleseminars hosted by Steve Harrison of Bradley Communications Corp., and sometimes Author Jack Canfield. Their advice was invaluable to me being a novice in the publishing field and without them, I am sure that I would have never attempted to actually write my book. They were a great source of inspiration for me, and I also have to give credit to Ellen and Oprah for their contribution. The one thing most important to remember when a new author takes on such a huge endeavor is belief. Belief in oneself is the first ingredient of success that you need before you even begin writing. Oprah, Ellen, Steve and Jack are all huge on the belief that a person can do anything, if you believe in yourself. Until I made this belief my own, I could have never succeeded in writing a good book. I will always give these four people credit for any success that I may have. The other very important thing at least for me, was backing from family and friends. Without my two sisters pushing me to keep writing and not giving up on my dream of telling the world my story, this too was a factor in completing my book. Keeping your circle positive from start to finish is imperative also, chase away any feelings or emotions of negativity of any kind and focus.
