Featured Interview With Terry Lister
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I was born and raised on the very tiny island of Bermuda. Because of our size Bermudians are great travellers. There are few 10 years who do not have a passport. So it is only natural that l am a great traveller. Two months ago, l visited my 100th country. I still live in tiny Bermuda but l sure do get out often!
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
When still a young boy on rainy Saturdays I would lie across my aunt’s bed and we would read together. Interestingly, she will launch her second book in a few weeks.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
My favorite authors include Mark Twain and Agatha Christie. My favorite genres to read are mystery, history, travel, and adventure.
Tell us a little about your latest book?
My last book, Let’s Go to Gabon, Cameroon and Namibia, is the third in my travelswithTerry series. I retired in 2014 and spend 50% of my time travelling. I started in Central America, followed by South America and now Africa. I started writing about my adventures when I began traveling in Africa. My books share the culture and customs as well as history of the countries l visit. This book opens up these three fascinating countries to readers who have never been. I write in a style where I invite the reader to travel along with me so the reader has a feeling of being on the trip as well.
