Featured Interview With Omni Delano
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
My name is Omni, and yes, I love my name. I was born, raised, and still live in the Tulsa area of Oklahoma, even though I moved around a lot as a child. I have three teenagers who consistently make me proud to be their mom. We have two pit bulls, one a rescue and the other an 18yr old who thinks he’s still my lapdog puppy (which he is). We also have a cat and a rabbit, they can both be little assholes sometimes but we love them anyway. Since I am unable to work a traditional job, I became a caregiver for my grandfather and an author.
I love to spend as much spare time as I can at the lake or out camping and floating the river. I’m happiest near the water. I’ve had a lot of rough patches throughout my life just as anyone else, although, I believe that without hardships in our lives we can never grow and overcome things we would never consider possible otherwise.
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
I started reading at a very young age and never stopped. I have always loved writing little stories or poems but growing up I more often had a new book in my hands (or inside my text books). It wasn’t until I got sick that I really began my writing journey, so it was one of those blessings in disguise.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
So many authors have a special talent for expressing their story. But I read such a wide variety of genre I couldn’t compare one to another. I read everything from urban fantasy, sci-fi and dramatic romances, to horror novels, true crimes, and classical dramas. There have only been a handful of books that were too dull or didn’t keep my interest enough to even finish it.
