Branding

I've been working on my own personal branding. I believe everyone should have a unique image associated with their identity. All of them different like fingerprints so that you individually be identified with one everlasting symbol. Here's the one I was working on.

My inspiration: My advice for good story ideas

A lot of people ask me how I got the idea for Three Blind Mice and the Tangled Web Trilogy. Well actually, Three Blind Mice was intended to be a standalone book.when I finish it I was curious as to what would happen next. What happens to these characters after all the mayhem They cause? I got to thinking and I saw something in a movie and watched a few times that gave me an idea. It was Scream 3. And in that part where Jamie Kennedy's character explains the rules of A good trilogy, I thought to myself "that is in the central truth." After all the trilogies I've read, all the good ones in the ffollow those rules. I have always had an ex and obsession with lreading trilogies and always wanted to write one. So I have to re-reading, I saw the Elements in the story that needed to be explored. All the things that make all of these larger than life characters who they are. And that's the new book is about

So my advice to new and potential writers struggling to find their next idea or inspiration,  is to take t a good look at something else for familiar to you and see it in a new way. No matter how pointless and stupid it may seem. Anything and everything has its own validity. Inspiration to come home from something new and out of the blue. Just a few simple words and simple truth can be enough.
My new book,The Cradle Will Fall will be out soon. I'm nearly done the editing process.l Like the first book,it also has a stellar ending that you didn't see coming.
