 David is an avid comic book and action novel lover. He’s taken some time out to answer a few ‘normal’ and ‘not so normal’ questions about his books and inspirations.

1. You have created a series. What is its name and what is it about?

The Asanti Series is the tale of Demorn, exile of the dead world of Asanti, an assassin who works out of Babelzon. Blessed or cursed by the goddess Alodin Mars, Demorn can move across dimensions and she is a legend across multiple universes, pulled by the burning sword within her chest, forever fighting a war against Ultimate Fate and the dark demon gods from the Void which claw against reality. She is also trying to resurrect her dead girlfriend, Kate, killed in their adventures. 

2. What inspired you to create this series?

I was sitting watching TV in the dead of the night. My brain disconnected from what I was watching and the first third of BLADE OF EXILE (the first book in the Asanti Series) came to me - I visualized the Clubhouse and the character of Demorn and her battle.

3. What are your long-term goals for the series?

The plan for the Asanti Series is a 7-volume series, which will encompass Demorn's complete battle against Ultimate Fate and the demon gods from the Void, her vengeance over the loss of her girlfriend and her home world of Asanti, along with an exploration of her origin and Demorn's steps in taking leadership of the Innocents, the clubhouse of assassins and thieves she calls home in Babelzon City. And more! I would love to see the Asanti Series become a TV and movie series, and I am definitely open to it becoming a video game or having spin off comics.

4. Can you tell us about your new standalone volume, DEMORN: Soul Fighter?

In Soul Fighter Demorn has travelled across the Glass Desert, to Bay City, to visit an old friend. She has left the war behind her. But Bay City is filled with shadows and a comet is about to crash into the City, killing millions. Demorn is dragged into the conflict, as she confronts and exposes secrets that the City has hidden, plunging her into a battle against the forces of life and death, as she fights to save the soul of a close friend.

5. I happen to know that you love comic books and action novels. Can you tell us how these have influenced you?

I enjoy the fast-paced nature of much comic book storytelling, the episodic storytelling and developing subplots. I enjoy building a layered story and mixing action with some sly humor and raw emotional beats. I do highly reading action and thriller novels, and I greatly enjoy the work of writers such as Chuck Dixon, David Baldacci, PD James, Greg Rucka and Lee Goldberg, among others!

‘Not so normal’ question spot:

1. Who is your favorite Superhero?

Tough one! Batman, Punisher and Catwoman! And Spider-Man!

2. Let’s say you’re a Superhero. What is your superpower?

Wiping the guilty from the streets!

3. What does your Superhero costume look like?
 
I wear all black! With perhaps a neon skull icon! :)

4. As a Superhero, would you rather work alone or with a team?

I'm a lone wolf! I can do team-ups but no regular team!

5. What does a superhero eat for breakfast?

Coffee, a banana, and a winning attitude!
 
Awesome answers! I love that your Superhero costume is all black. Black just happens to be my happy color for clothing. And I too receive my best ideas at night. Thank you, David, for sharing with us today.

Spotlight on BUZZ GUEST WENDY HOBBS Ya'll! Author of 'Claudia's Special Wish' and the 'Claudia Quash Series' LET'S GENERATE A BUZZ!

Today my BUZZ GUEST is Wendy Hobbs philanthropist and author of 'Claudia's Special Wish' and the 'Claudia Quash Series'!
Picture
When we last spoke with Wendy Hobbs in June of 2016 she had just launched her debut novel 'Claudia Quash: The Spell of Pencliff'. I've read the novel and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Note: This interview was conducted just before Christmas 2016

Wendy has graciously taken some time to give us an update on her life.

1. You've written a new book! What is it called? And what is it about?

'Claudia's Special Wish' is a magical Christmas Story that I was invited to write by Tony Curtis MBE, from Dreams and Wishes. The wonderful non-profit charity supports seriously ill children and their families.

A short synopsis of the story:

One snowy night Claudia Quash makes a special wish on the biggest star in the sky. Later that evening, she is woken by a jingling sound and soon finds herself stepping into a frozen forest. Whisked away by an elf in a magical sleigh, she flies through the sky, and embarks on an unforgettable adventure.

2. Are there any characters that you are especially fond of?

I like Claudia Quash, because she’s a unique and inspiring character, but I also like, Figgy, the elf as he makes toys and magical angel bells for the children at Christmas.

3. I happen to know that you are giving away all proceeds of this latest novel to charity. How is this awesome plan going?

It is going very well. So far, the book has raised nearly £5,000 for the charity and this is only the start.

4. When you read 'Claudia Quash' in the House of Commons what was that like?

It was an honour to be asked to read, “Claudia’s Special Wish” in the Houses of Parliament with John Bercow, The Speaker of The House of Commons present. Once I started reading the book, I became so absorbed in the magical adventure that I didn’t realise that I was being filmed. The children said that they loved the story and hearing about Santa Claus and Rudolph in Lapland.

5. What is your next project?

I will be releasing my third book, “Claudia Quash and the Cursed Crystal” which follows on from “The Spell of Pencliff” in the new year.

6. I know that Claudia has a Christmas wish. What is your Christmas wish?

My Christmas wish is to spend more time with the seriously ill children supported by Dreams and Wishes, and to help to raise as much money as I can for them.
Also, I would love a to sell my film script or television series for “Claudia Quash: The Spell of Pencliff” as I believe that she would inspire children.

7. What are you hoping Santa leaves under your tree?

I would like a First Edition of Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte, my favourite book and film and a large bottle of luxurious perfume.  


Wow! Your work with Dreams and Wishes (@dreamsandwishesorg) is a truly beautiful and inspiring thing. And as a Claudia Quash fan, I’m looking forward to ‘Claudia Quash and the Cursed Crystal’. Thank you so much for updating us on your books and good works.
