Visage of Moros follows a man searching for answers over the death of his daughter, only to have it turn into an all-consuming need for justice, leading him down a path of paranoia, violence, and self-destruction. What was the inspiration for the setup of your story?

It’s hard to pinpoint the initial conception of the narrative in my mind. I think it was more of a gradual, collective thought processes. It’s interesting that you mentioned the movie Prisoners in the review because I believe that the movie, along with Memento, had significant influences on the shaping of the story.

I felt that there were a lot of great twists and turns throughout the novel. Did you plan this before writing the novel, or did the twists develop organically writing?

Some were pre-drafted in the initial plot outline but I think most came to me as I further embraced and developed the scenes and the characters.

What were some goals you set for yourself as a writer in this book?

I ventured outside of my comfort zone a little bit with this story as this is much closer to home than my other works. But, just like my other writings, I strive for an evocative voice that embodies the style and the essence of my storytelling.

What is the next book that you are working on and when can your fans expect it to be out?

Currently, I am simultaneously and intermittenly working on the sequel to Visage of Moros and another collection of stories.
