Featured Interview With Jeremiah D Davis
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I am a 18 yr old student at Morehouse College. I was born in Chicago, Illinois on July 16th, 2000, and I moved around the city during my childhood. I spent the most time in Homewood, Illinois, and then went back to the city to go to King High School. I lived with my mother and grandmother for the majority of my life, until my grandmother passed in my freshman year of high school. During my senior year, my mother and I got a dog, who we named “Ciera.”
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
From the time I started to going to school, I started reading a lot. I got more into books when I was in fifth grade. I started writing stick figure comics when I was 11, and began writing short stories when I was 12.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
I prefer to read fantasy and adventure books, but I also like to read books about the experiences of black people. Those such as Toni Morrison, Scott Westerfeld, and Clarissa Clare have influenced me the most in the subjects of my writings. However, if I were to really say who inspired me, it would be me.
Tell us a little about your latest book?
My latest published book is about the remainder of humanity trying to survive against four colossal and mythical creatures. These creatures represent different aspects of nature, and the book revolves around a man who is within this society who is being solicited to kill these creatures. The book is meant to be a cautionary tale about what will happen to humanity if we continue to disrespect the planet.
