Guns, Grendels, Or Nuclear Bombs;

Growing Up With Three Brothers And Three Sisters, I Was The Storyteller Of The Family... What My Mother Called 'the Liar.'

The Turning Point Was When I Hit My 30th Birthday. I Thought, If Really Want To Write, It's Time To Start. I Picked Up The Book How To Write A Novel In 90 Days. The Author Said To Just Write Three Pages A Day, And I Figured, I Can Do This. I Never Got Past Page 3 Of That Book.

I've Mis-signed Many A Book Rollins Or Clemens. My Readers Quickly Become Aware. Booksellers Will Often Promote Me Under Both Names, And I Do Plug Both At Signings. Generally, The Fantasy Reader Has No Problem Going Into The Suspense Genre. It's Harder For The Typical Suspense Reader To Go The Other Direction.

A Stunner…reminds Me Of Tom Clancy At His Finest.

I'm Pretty Disciplined To Keep The Momentum Of A Story Going By Writing Everyday, Even If It's Only A Couple Paragraphs Or A Page Or Two.
