What
is your name and/or pen name?
Allistar
Banks
What
genre do you write?
Children’s
and Adult Fiction
What
made you want to be a writer?
Writing
helped me to heal from my parents’ divorce and going through my first break-up.
How
do you feel about the writing community as a whole?
The
writing community tends to promote themselves without purpose. I feel like when
you join a Writer’s group it is a lot of like each other’s pages and not
necessarily everyone is going to be interested in your page since it might not
appeal to them. I feel like when Authors, Freelancers, and Writers post their
social media pages they need to distinct their target audience and what is your
page about. When an Author needs feedback on their work, no one seems to want
to help them.
Have
you or will you be willing to collaborate with other authors in the future?
I
will be willing to collaborate with other authors in the future because I want
to continue to grow and learn as an Author.
Tell
us about your book and if it’s upcoming or already published.
My
book I have published on Amazon now is called “A Journey Unfolds” for college girls that are looking for
encouragement through life’s trials and to have a fulfilling life.
My
upcoming books are called “Spring Brings
Summer,” “Lenny the Lizard and His
Green Scarf,” and “The Rainbow Hot
Air Balloon.”
Is
your book or upcoming book an eBook, paperback, or both?
It
is both a paperback and eBook.
My
upcoming books will be paperback and eBook.
Is
this your first book?
“A Journey Unfolds” is my second book.
Are
you planning to write more?
I
have a novel in the works called “The
Game of Graces” and I am working on a series called Nosy Nicole.
Is
there anything you would say to other writers, that want to write and publish a
book?
An
Author needs to invest in a serious Editor so they can pick up on content
development and grammar. Self-publishing gives you a better option of getting
your book out there quicker, you can be in control of the royalties’ and book
cover, and how you want your content placed.
Where
can my readers find your book and how they can follow you on social media?
Leave only links that you want open to the public.
