Featured Interview With R. J. Eastwood
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I was born and raised in Bristol, Rhode Island, but now live in Sunny Florida. Dog have always been a must in our family. Unfortunately, our last died of old age. Since my wife and I began traveling quite a bit, we have not had a dog since, but once again we are looking.
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
I began writing short stories at age 14 and over my career have authored 7 screenplay for produced films, and over 140 hours of TV production before retiring and turning to writing books.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
I love memoirs, but also read Cormac McCarthy, Steven King, Lee Childs, and others.
Tell us a little about your latest book?
I had this idea back in 2015 to write about a near future society paying for the sins of our current society. The entire book unfolds through the thoughts of the protagonist in first-person stream of consciousness. That was hard, but in the end rewarding. Then came the political events of 2016, the pandemic, and the Black Lives Matter protests and I new I had to revise and expand the book, which is what I have now done with the release of Midnight Black revised and expanded version.
