Featured Interview With Hunter H. White
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I’m an energy transactions lawyer, who always dreamed of writing suspenseful Christian fiction. When the Covid shutdown came along, I finally got my chance to really focus on it. I was raised in Houston, Texas, and I still live in Houston, with my wife of thirty-three years. I have two adult children and no pets at the moment; but we do pet-sit our son’s cat, and our daughter’s cat and dog.
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
As a child with dyslexia, reading was a challenge. Even with a lot of hard work, and very encouraging parents, I was unable to achieve an acceptable age-level reading ability until middle school. That is also when I could finally start to read for pleasure, and the inspirational and transportive aspects of books found a special place in my heart. I believe my early challenges helped fuel a desire to write and inspire other young readers. I gravitated toward creative classes in high school and college, and I absolutely loved them.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
My favorite authors include, among others, Joel C. Rosenberg, C.S. Lewis, James Rollins, Steve Berry and Clive Cussler. My favorite genres include Christian fiction and Suspense. I love fiction that is action-packed and includes Christian themes and/or utilizes the actual historical record with a little fiction injected. Authors who inspired me the most in connection with my novel, Treasures of the Lochs, were C.S. Lewis and Joel C. Rosenberg.
Tell us a little about your latest book?
Treasures of the Lochs is suspenseful young-adult Christian fiction, involving a modern-day treasure hunt in Scotland, with a bit of supernatural thrown in. Blending historical fact and Scottish legend within an action-packed adventure, Treasures of the Lochs is an exciting, powerful story of faith, friendship, and redemption. The target audience is teenage and above (some parts would be too intense for younger readers). This book is a 2024 NIEA Finalist in Religion Fiction. It also hit Amazon#1 New Release for Christian Fantasy. I hope you’ll check it out.
