1. What is your all-time favorite book?
- That’s an impossible question to answer. I have many favorites. A few including The Hunger Games, Harry Potter, & Lord of the Rings series’. I also enjoy many non-fiction books such as Think and Grow Rich and others.
- “Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.” – Robert Frost
- Another impossible question. I like many: Hope, action, surprise, optimistic, happy, dream, do, learn, goal, write.
- See answer #3.
- Sitting down and writing. Once I start it’s easy. Fear and procrastination are the enemy of writers.
- When I get positive feedback from readers, it’s a tremendous motivator. I also love the fact that my words are my legacy. The fact that people will be able to read my words years, decades, and centuries after I’m gone pushes me to keep going.
- I have many, but I’ll say Tolkien.

- I loved Edgar Allen Poe in high school.

Tips & Tricks:
1. Do you have any great writing resources that you can share with us?
- Yes. 1. Read https://smartblogger.com/ daily.
- Write daily, even if just one paragraph. Read about improving your writing daily, and read something daily. It’s not about talent, it’s about persistence and learning. Anyone can become a great writer if they keep putting in the effort, i.e., write, read, and read about improving your writing as much as possible. Small gains daily add up to tremendous gains over time.
- Don’t give up. Don’t listen to people who have given up or never tried. Seek advice from those who succeeded and you wish to emulate. Be persistent and focus on changing bad habits. It’s the consistent small good habits that push you towards your dreams over time.
Have you written any books? Tell us about it/them.
- I’ve written four books in an eight-part epic-fantasy series called Everville. The latest was Everville: The Fall of Brackenbone which takes place partly in a university and partly on a parallel fantasy world with fantasy characters that work with the protagonist, Owen Sage, to stop the destruction of the word from evil forces.
Buy Everville Books: Amazon Link
- I also wrote a self-help book on happiness and success this past summer, which I’m currently working on to get published and promoted. You can get a feel for my self-help writing by reading my Lifehack articles here. http://www.lifehack.org/author/royhuffowensage-com
