Clifford Benjamin Interview Published on: 08, Mar 2022
Where were you born and where did you grow up?
I was born in Ocala, Florida and grew up in New York.
Was being an author something that was on your mind ever since you were a child?Yes.
Were your family ever skeptical of your dreams of writing? Who has been your greatest supporter?Sort of. Most of them were skeptical and didn’t support my efforts.
My baby brother and my niece.
What was the inspiration for your book, zombie?My dad could not read nor write is one reason. The other reason was the USA has a corrupt president filled with hate caring about no one but himself.
Who inspired the character of the demented chief executive officer in "zombie"?His father was racist and corrupt
What do you think characterizes your writing?Being Multi-talented and also indulging in other activities of book marketing, editing, and being present at the book launch, and having a vast knowledge of book promotion and marketing as well as social media promotion and marketing.
How do your books compare to the sort of books you like to read?I think my writing is on a level with more depth.
Have you ever thought about writing a series? If so, what would it be about?No. Honestly, it never crossed my mind and cannot imagine it ever happening.
What's the best compliment a reader has ever given you?Fantastic read, didn’t put it down all day.
How does writing make you feel? When you're not writing, what does a normal day for you look like?When I am writing, I sort of leave this dimension and enter another and I sail on high like I am in a different world with no worry, no pain just peacefulness.
When I’m writing a normal day is like I’m shut off from everything evil and not a care in the world with my imagination running wild but in a good and positive way.
What is the sweetest fan-mail that you have ever received?Upon reading my book, they are on the edge of their seat and get choked up inside and can’t put the book down till it’s finished.
Do you plan on exploring other genres and mixing things up a little in the future?You can bet your bottom dollar I plan to explore other genres in the future. In fact, I have sort of done it already by writing “Earth 2” a Science Fiction Novel.
What are you currently working on? (B). May we know when we can expect a new book?Currently, I am working on “Chain of Fools,” a sort of gangster/ good guy type of narrative.
“Chain of Fools” is in the editing phase and should be out on the market give or take a month from now in an eBook and print on Kindle and Amazon.
How did you first come across the All Author websites? (B). Do you have any feedback for us?Searching the web.
I am impressed and appreciative to be associated with All Author and feel they are doing a great job at helping authors get their books out to readers.
