Howdy ho there lovies, so without further ado, here's the Interview! It's a long one, so brace yourselves! Let's start off with the basics,  WHAT was it that got you interested in writing your own stories? In what stage of your life were you & what or who were your inspirations?   I have always been fascinated by writers; they were my unattainable idols, heavenly creatures. I could only admire their work, not even hoping to go in their direction. Since great books were almost impossible to get in Soviet Russia, I borrowed them from the library nearby (from where my mother fetched me on her way from work), and – prepare yourselves now – copied them in thick notebooks for further re-readings! My inspirations were and still are science-fiction writers- Bradbury, Asimov, Zelazni, Philip K.

I N T E R V I E W                                       J U S T I N   B I E N V E N U E   A little while ago now, the Author of  ' The Macabre Masterpiece ' contacted me and asked if I was still interested in conducting a couple more interviews for my blog and if so, if I was willing to interview him, too. I replied pretty quickly and after chatting for a little while, I finally emailed him back with the questions. ( Apologies again for taking a rather long time! ) After asking what sort of questions he'd be comfortable with, we decided on just keeping it quite basic, not quite focusing too much on his books alone, but also on his journey as a self published author. So without further ado, here it is, guys, popcorn at the ready and all that! What sparked the idea for the novel A Bloody Bloody Mess In The Wild Wild West? The title sort of just popped into my ...
