Pen & paper or computer: Definitely computer. I'm way too impatient to write the whole thing on paper. Plus, my handwriting is atrocious.
Book character I think I’d be best friends with: Kinky Friedman from any Kinky Friedman book. That man is a gem and I would love to spend an afternoon smoking cigars while talking politics, the terrible state of country music, and just how in the hell he lost his bid for Governor of Texas.

If I weren’t an author, I’d be a: Professional Musician. And, let me clarify. I wanted to be a musician first and I asked the great deity in the sky to grant my wish. In doing so, I learned a valuable lessons about deities. They are very hung up on specificity. I became a professional musician, as requested. However, I forgot to ask to be incredibly wealthy and successful. So, just fyi, always make sure to ask for the money.
Favorite decade in fashion history: The 1970's would have suited me well as I am a tee shirt/jeans kind of guy.

My signature drink: Coffee. Once it was scotch, but we had a falling out.
Favorite artist: David Gilmour of Pink Floyd
Number one on my bucket list: Visit Scotland with my wife where I can buy a kilt and a decorative knife to strap to my leg.
