Interview with C.W. James, Author of Mindfield

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Mindfield?

I honestly don’t remember. I found one chapter in my “never completed” file, read it, and thought, “Huh, let’s go with this.”

What’s your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?

I don’t have one. I read across genres, fiction and non-fiction. Whatever strikes my interest at the time…

What books are on your TBR pile right now?

“The Black Lizard Big Book of Pulps” – a huge compilation of pulp magazine fiction.

What scene in your book was your favorite to write?

The final confrontation between Matt and Sokolov. Although it got dark, Matt’s ability to read people helped him turn Sokolov’s henchmen against him.

Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)

Just lots of coffee.

Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?

“Let us live so that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry.” – Mark Twain

If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?

They had fun; it was an enjoyable read.
