Ramona: What were the key challenges you faced when writing this book?
R.D. Lyons: The key challenges in writing this book I would say researching the content and finding the time to do that with 2 jobs A lot of the content is indeed extremely dark and disturbing and what goes on in the deep dark web that only four percent of the population has access too. I had to gain access to it and it is most dark and depraved totally illegal nasty stuff going on! Also the paranormal content was fun and challenging researching as well!

Ramona: What book or books have had a strong influence on you or your writing?
R.D.

Ramona: Would you rather have an endless summer or an endless winter?
R.D. Lyons: I would definitely want to have an endless Summer. I love the tropics and travel to warm sunny places. I tolerate the Winters, but don’t like them… never have!
Ramona: Writing can be an emotionally draining and stressful pursuit. Any tips for aspiring writers?
R.D. Lyons: Rise early, before the sun rises and write down daily goals for yourself! One more thing just keep visualizing the finished project and it will happen! Research your subject well beforehand, and if it helps write the ending draft first before the beginning sometime for some strange reason or another it might be easier that way to avoid writer’s block (I have never had it) and finish the book and keep you motivated.
Thanks so much Ramona Portelli for interviewing me I wish everyone that knows of me get acquainted with reading all my action suspense thriller books!
