A. Since 200

Q6. What advice would you give other authors?

A. Don't let rejections discourage you from reaching your goal of being published. I've collected a stack of rejection letters that are five inches thick. But I kept going until I finally landed that one golden acceptance letter from a publisher.

A. You can easily find me on Facebook under Barry K. Nelson. I also have a separate McKenzie Files page that's filled with a lot of fun things. https://www.facebook.com/McKenzieFilesSeries/

A. Oh absolutely. I'd like to do the amazing task of squeezing thirty books out of my series before I conclude it. And I have a few other ideas that I'd like to pursue.

A. I've written a total of seven so far. Four books in My McKenzie Files series. McKenzie Files Book One. Assassination Anxiety, McKenzie Files Book Two. Obliteration and Maximum Deevor, Books Three and four. Both soon to be released by my publisher, Dreaming Big Publications. As well as a stand-alone book titled, Evil Walks. I've also self-published novella titled Hybreeders. And an art portfolio book, The Dark Threshold. Both books can be found on Amazon.

Q10. did you go to college to be a writer?

A. No. I've always had this talent. The more writing I've done the better I've gotten at it.
