Interviewing author Michael Joffroy


Q.1 when did you decide you were going to write a book?

That's a great question I have had or been responsible for two pugs in my life and have always thought that these types of dogs are hilarious and I like dragons and the magic behind them. So I figured why not write and illustrate a book about both of them.

Q.2 how did you come up with the name of your books?

To be frank my first book was birthed in therapy it's a therapeutic book for children that are going through abuse so the name came naturally. My second book got its title from the main characters name and just the wacky adventure he is on and of course the Island he ended up on.

Q. 3 what are you working on now for 20 18?

I am now working on the continuation of "Wex's Wacky Adventure To Koma Keone Island" I am currently illustrating the book the manuscript is almost complete 


Q 4. how long have you been writing?

I have been writing for three years now, it's gone by so fast. 


Q 5. What advice would you give other authors?

Be patient, persistent, and never give up I know its difficult to commit I'm an illustrator by heart, my only enemy in this is myself. 



Q 6.  where can people find you online?

You can find me at greatbooksbymike.com which the website is currently being overhauled, so please be patient. I am also located on Facebook at Books By Mike. If you are also interested I have a channel on YouTube just look up my name Michael Joffroy 

Q7 do you plan on making more books in the future?

Yes, I plan on making more books I am currently working on the second part of Wexs Wacky Adventure because it is a two-part book, with tons of illustrations, and I will also continue Wex's Wacky Adventure into a series, so more books to come.

Q 8 how many books have you written?

As of today on 09/28/2018 I have written, illustrated, and have gotten published by Halo Publishing International 2 books, "The Boy Who Couldn't Be Seen!", and "Wex's Wacky Adventure To Koma Keone Island". 

Q 9 did you go to college to be a writer?

I never attended college to be a writer, although I have some really cool stories to tell. I actually went to trade school to be an aircraft mechanic I have been an aircraft mechanic for 6 years now.

Interviewing Author Grahame Peace Q1. Tell me about yourself what are your favorite books to read? A. I’m 61 years of age and was born in the Northern Textile Town of Huddersfield in England where I still live with my partner. I like many genres of books, but I don’t like anything too dark; before I retired I worked for many years in Mental Health Services in the UK, so I had more than my fill of ‘life’, and the ups and downs it can throw at people. So, I tend to go for books that offer escapism, I also like history, autobiographies, and biographies. At the moment I’m enjoying the fictional book ‘The Haunting of Ashburn House by Darcy Coates. I say I’m retired, but I now consider myself to be an author, I treat it as a full-time job, working on my books for several hours most days. Q2. when did you decide you were going to write a book? A. I retired from my job with the National Health Service in the UK nearly five years ago now; I’d already started my first book by th

Interview Author Gabriella Messina Q1. Tell me about yourself what are your favorite books to read?  A.  I’ve found that, as I continue to grow as a writer, I’ve grown more selective as a reader. I tend to choose books from the same genres that I write… mysteries, historical fiction, fantasy… and I gravitate back to older books more than newer.

I’d been  A.writing screenplays since the early 2000s and I’d gotten some notice for them, but getting into that industry is notoriously difficult and expensive. Then I learned about the rise of indie publishing, KDP and such, and decided to try adapting the stories into novels. Q3. How did you come up with the name of your books?  A. Poetry, songs,
