Can you believe it is already December? This year has flown by for me.
December 11 from 7-9 p.m. at the Baymont Hotel Boardroom on HWY 83 South in Perryton, TX - I am having a book launch party for Luke's Legacy. I am hoping to be able to greet a lot of friends and sign a bunch of books.
I urge you to take some time to enjoy December this year. Try to use it as a time to reflect and thank God for the blessings in your life.
Today my interview is of Robert F. Duwel. You will want to read about him.
1. What is your name and the title of your book(s)?
My name is Robert F. Duwel and the title of my novel is my beloved Athena.
2. What is one thing you think your readers would want to know about you?
I want my readers to know that they won't be embarrassed when they read my novels. Some novels I've read lately are almost pornographic. Not in mine. That's not to say that I don't touch upon relevant issues, I do. Its just that I believe that to respect my readers, I must first respect myself. Another thing I wish my readers to know about me is that as a former Air Force member, my novels will take them into that world. My first novel is a love story that is unique in that my characters were Air Force uniforms and work on Air Force jet planes. Yet, it is not about the Air Force per say. My characters live their Christian beliefs.
3. When did you know that you would like to write?
I really did think of myself as a writer until my English Lit professor in college told me that I was. She encouraged me to write. my beloved Athena is my first attempt at writing and low and behold, it was published.
4. What are your strengths in writing?
I hope to keep things real in my novels. Also, I've been told that I have a very easy writing style.
5. Are you a reader?
I've become an avid reader. I enjoy A.W. Mykel, Daniel Steel, Tom Clancy, E. Stanley Gardner to name a few.
6. What are you reading now?
East To The Dawn, The Life of Amelia Earhart.
7. Tell about your books.
I've just got my next novel back from my proof-reader. It is a sequel to "my beloved Athena" that I call "my beloved Tony and Athena." my beloved Athena introduces you to Tony and Athena before they were married. This next story continues their journey from their marriage to the birth of their first child.
8. What is your biggest obstacle in writing?
My biggest obstacle is finding the time to write. I have a number of stories in my head that I want to write about but I lack the time. I love researching out locations for my stories. It's just finding the time to sit down and write.
