Hey Charlie, You're Next by Michael B. Judkins
Interview with the author:
Where do you get inspiration for
your stories?
My
personal life, professional life, and ideas come together while walking down
the street.
Do you have another profession
besides writing?
I've
been a mental health therapist for the past 20 years. I worked in various
settings ranging from outpatient, residential, community, Inpatient, and
Correctional.
What’s the most courageous thing
you’ve ever done?
When
I started publishing my poetry professionally to the market. I allowed myself
to be vulnerable and exposed to heal and create.
Name a quirky thing you like to
do.
I
make sound effects sometimes when I talk.
If there is one thing you want
readers to remember about you, what would it be?
Everything
begins with a beginning, write the story, whatever it turns out to be, let it
be.
