Author Interview: J. G. Clay, Author of Tales of Blood and Sulphur

Born in the leafy peaceful surroundings of Leamington Spa, J.G Clay is the Midlands Master of The Macabre. Now in his early forties and residing in the leafier English county of Northamptonshire, Clay’s boyhood dream of bringing his unique combination of cosmic horror, dark fiction and science fiction to the masses is being realised. With the first volume of The Tales of Blood And Sulphur under his belt, he is poised to unleash Gods, Monsters and weird events upon the world. Under Clay’s guidance, the Dark will become a little darker and Horror will go One Step Beyond.

When he is not destroying worlds, J.G likes to spend time with his family and friends, exploring the world of bass guitar, adding to his eclectic collection of music and watching as much geek TV and film as his eyes and brain will allow. He is an avid reader and a long suffering but ultimately optimistic fan of Birmingham City FC.

He hates cucumber, extremists of all stripes and colours, and reality TV shows.

Tales of Blood and Sulphur   
   Eleven Tales steeped in Blood and reeking of Sulphur.

   J.G Clay takes you on a journey through the voids of Reality and into dark places where demons, mutants and inter-dimensional creatures taunt, taint and corrupt Humanity. Survival is not guaranteed, sanity is not assured and death lurks in every corner. These are the Tales of Blood and Sulphur: Apocalypse Minor; eleven twisted tales of terror and mayhem……
   There are cracks in the skin of Reality. Some are microscopic, others are as wide as a four-lane motorway. As the fault lines increase and widen, the door to our world shines like a beacon in the darkness, a warm and inviting sight to others beyond our understanding. When They cross over into our realm, The Tales begin......
   A gambler taking one last desperate throw of the dice. A struggling writer making an unholy alliance. An eternal being fighting to stay alive in the financial capital of India. A man burdened with a terrible town secret. The Law Enforcers who must never cry. The End of Days live and direct from the rural heartland of England.
   The blood is warm, the sulphur is burning, the tales will be told, the Apocalypse Minor is imminent!

Who are your influences?
The usual horror suspects; King, Barker, Herbert, Ramsey Campell, Graham Masterton. I’ve recently discovered Ray Garton and Kealan-Patrick Burke so we can add them onto the list. Outside of the printed word, John Carpenter’s films have had a massive effect on over the years, as has the British sci-fi comic 2000A.D.

When did you begin writing?
Professionally, I’d say about two years. I’ve written for my own amusement since I was about 13 years old. Needless to say, the early stuff wasn’t that good.

How do you come up with your stories, characters, character names, POV, etc?
Everything I write stems from one solitary question – ‘what if....’ The plot and characters could be inspired by other works I’ve read, songs I’ve heard and people I’ve met. It’s a difficult process to describe. It’s a process that kind of happens of its own accord.
 
Do you work from an outline?
A very rough one. I’ll make a rough arrow diagram just outlining the direction I want the story to takes. I also outline the characters. I’ve found that detailed plotting and planning makes my job more difficult.

Tell me about your favorite scene in your novel.
My favourite has to be the moment The Smiling Men reveal themselves in the story The World Stops When the Smiling Men Cry. They are cybernetically enhanced police men in a dystopian version of England. The Smiling Men are meant to look reassuring with their permanent smiles but they actually look quite sinister. As I wrote the scene, I could see it play out in my head like a movie.

Can you tell us a little about your writing philosophy?
My philosophy is to tell a story without fear or favour. I’m not here to cosset the reader or to tiptoe around sensibilities. I have tales to tell and tell them I will to the best of my ability and with honesty.

Have you ever tried writing in any other genres?
Not yet. Horror is, and always will be my passion. Maybe one day in the future, I’ll give science fiction or crime a go. But until then, I’m all about the terror.

Author Interview: Erin Rhew, Author of The Fulfillment Series

Thank you for hosting me to today, Dave and the Lupa Schwartz Mysteries Blog! And a big hello to all of the readers who've joined us! <waves>

I'm here as part of the Rhew 2 Rhew tour! My husband, Deek Rhew, wrote an amazing thriller called 122 Rules, published by Pandamoon on April 5! In addition, my publisher chose the month of April to feature my trilogy, so Deek and I decided to make a thing of it. And the Rhew 2 Rhew Tour was born! ;) Stay tuned because there's an opportunity for you to enter a Rafflecopter drawing for a chance at a $50 Amazon gift card!



Dave: Who are your influences?

Erin: My family has always been a big source of inspiration for me. I'm from the South, and I have a super huge, quite successful family. Many are entrepreneurs and business owners, so I've learned from them the value of working hard and pursuing your dreams. My grandparents own a car dealership. It was my grandfather's dream to do that, and he worked hard to make it a reality. He's in his eighties, and he still goes to work every day and loves it. My family's influence and support gives me the courage to reach for the stars.

My grandfather and his brothers and sister. They are/were all amazing people, and they are/continue to be a great inspiration to their children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren!


My biggest writing and life influence is my amazing husband, Deek Rhew. He inspires me daily with his shining spirit, easy smile, and clever mind. I tell you, this man is the real deal, real life MacGyver. He can take a bunch of random components and make most anything work with them. I'm in awe of the way his mind works. And his writing is just stellar...top-notch. His wit and prose fuse together to create a truly unique blend of literary and commercial. I've never read an author voice like his (and I work for a publishing company and read manuscripts all the time). His natural talent challenges me to be a better writer, and his bright soul inspires me to be a better person.

See that amazing smile he has?


Dave: When did you begin writing?

Erin: I started writing when I was four years old. While sitting in my grandparent's office one day, I typed up my very first poem about the cars on their lot. My family made such a huge deal about it that I just kept writing. I continued in middle and high school, winning several poetry and prose contests. But after college, I pursued my love of acting and ran a theater company. Though I acted and directed, I still kept my fingers in the writing pie by creating plays for the company to perform. But one day, I decided to return to my first love and began a novel. That novel is STILL in production, and I've gone on to write several others in the meantime. I hope to start querying that first book, which appears to be my magnum opus, soon.

Dress rehearsal for a play in college


Dave: How do you come up with your stories, characters, character names, POV, etc? and Do you work from an outline?

Erin: I don't usually work from an outline. However, when I wrote The Fulfillment Series, I did create a loose outline. See, I don't like "filler" second novels--those books where nothing of significance really happens between books one and three. So, I wanted to be sure I had enough material to avoid the dreaded "filler" second novel. It pleases me to no end when people leave reviews for The Outlanders and mention its strength as a second novel.

I don't really come up with the stories or the characters; they find me. The ideas for all of my novels have just appeared in my mind, and I go with the flow. I imagine I have this little box inside my head, and thousands of people live inside the box. They're all clawing and fighting for their chance to lift the lid, escape, and have their story shared with the world.

Writing The Fulfillment Series taught me to not try and lead my characters. It's like that whole "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink" thing. If I try to direct them, they'll push back. It's their story. I'm just the messenger.



Dave: Tell me about your favorite scene in your novel.

Erin: My favorite scene is in The Outlanders, and it's commonly referred to as "THE scene." I can't tell you too many details because it will give away spoilers, but I can say it's the most emotionally difficult scene I've written to date. There's one in my magnum opus that's close, but this scene really rips out the heart strings. After I wrote it, I was in a funk for a while. The character's intense emotions really left a mark on me as the transcriber.

When you read The Outlanders and come to "THE scene," I highly recommend listening to "My Immortal" by Evanescence as you read it.


Dave: Can you tell us a little about your writing philosophy?

Erin: I typically create by writing out the whole story first. I don't think about grammar or sentence structure or anything. I simply pour the story onto the pages, which is usually easy if I'm listening to my characters (harder if I try to interfere and tell them what they're supposed to be doing). And then comes the hard part: editing. I edit, edit, edit, and edit some more. This part usually takes double the amount of time the creation part does. And if you intend to get it published, you really need to spend the time in the editing phase. Next, have beta readers and critique partners review it. Edit some more. And THEN you can consider querying. ;)

Who knows, you may even marry your critique partner. I did! 

Dave: Have you ever tried writing in any other genres?

Erin: Oh yes. The Fulfillment Series is a young adult fantasy, and while I have another young adult fantasy in the works, I also have an adult historical fiction, a middle grade coming-of-age, and a women's fiction story waiting in the wings.



Dave: Do you have any interesting writing-related anecdotes to share?

Erin: Well, I guess the fact that writing led me to my husband is an interesting anecdote. WUT? Yep! Deek and I met on Twitter because we both asked to join a critique partner group. He asked for a real "grammar nerd" to take a look at his piece, and as the resident grammar nerd, I got assigned his story. We started a conversation in the margins of his manuscript and haven't stopped talking since. Even if I never make it big in the writing world, I'll alway consider my writing endeavors to be of the utmost success because they led me to the man of my dreams--my soulmate, Deek!


Thank you SO much for having me on your blog, Dave! Readers, are you ready to learn a bit about me, Deek, and our books, as well as enter for a chance to win a $50 Amazon gift card?

For those that don't know, Erin is a young adult fantasy author who is married to adult thriller author, Deek Rhew. Together, they are "the Rhews," and their street team is the Rhewination!

Growing up on a small farm in the kingdom of Vanguard, seventeen-year-old Layla Givens lives a deceptively tranquil existence.

Author Interview: Deek Rhew, Author of 122 Rules


I am so happy to be on The Lupa Schwartz Mysteries Blog! Hello, Dave and all you wonderful readers of his blog. What a great day to do an interview! Also, stick around after the interview to learn about our books and enter to win a $50 Amazon gift card!

Dave: Who are your influences?

Deek: Erin Rhew! Hands down my fav author of all time. We joke that I loved her writing so much I had to marry the author. :-)

Other than my bride, Stephen King, Dean Koontz, Nelson DeMille. You will see each of these gents' influences in my writing.

Mr. King could write the danged phone book, and it would be an awesome tale. He's one of the most brilliant storytellers of all time. IMHO.

Mr. Koontz is an amazing story teller, but what he does is create incredible characters that you think about long after you've closed the cover. Christopher Snow is easily my favorite character of any book ever. Dean also has an elegant, beautiful writing style and description capability that I could only dream of matching.

Mr. DeMille weaves these intricate action plots with humorous but serious characters. If you've ever read the John Corey novels, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. John is tough and complicated and funny.

I'd love to go on an adventure with John, Christopher, and Samson. I think we'd have a marvelous time.

Dave: When did you begin writing?

Deek: I wrote a lot in high school, but at that time my focus was on music. After living the musician's life for a while I realized something very important: A musician's life blows chunks. Hard. Awful pay, long hours, drunk fans. After I switched majors, got my degree, and a job that, ya know, let's me eat on a regular basis, I returned to writing.

I've started several stories, but each time the story fizzled out. Those were more of learning who I am as a writer...actually I think I'll always be learning. But when I fell in love with the characters in 122 Rules, Birth of an American Gigolo, and "Norman and Demon," I fell in love with storytelling and the writing process.

Dave: How do you come up with your stories, characters, character names, POV, etc? and Do you work from an outline?

Deek: I'm combining these two questions, because the answer is basically the same.

I don't come up with the stories, characters, so forth per say. It's more like they find me. In Stephen King's book On Writing, he talks about how stories are found things. He describes it like this:
You're walking in the desert and you find the tip of something sticking out of the ground. You uncover it a little and see that there is more buried deeper in the soil. You dig and dig uncovering more, discovering the object's details. You brush away sand revealing intricacies and fine lines. Eventually you have revealed all there is to reveal.

The thing you first find is an idea. A question. Erin and I talk all the time and sometimes out of those conversations come questions or situations. What-if's. What if this? What would happen if that? So we explore that. Sometimes, there's not much there, and we cast it aside. But other times, we find there's something significant buried in the sand.

I don't work from an outline. I just start with the idea and see where it leads. Usually I'm as surprised by what happens in the story as my readers!

Dave: Tell me about your favorite scene in your novel.

Deek: Okay, I have a couple but there is one that ALWAYS makes me laugh. Monica has been in Witness Protection for over a year and gets away after someone tries to kill her. She calls her best friend, Angel, and together they flee across the country. They've been driving all day and stop in Colorado, parking way up on a hill overlooking the Colorado flatlands. Monica is depressed about the state of her life and been grousing about it.  She is standing on the edge of a cliff, looking down at the rocks below, contemplating, when Angel comes to her rescue:


Monica reflected for a moment, her gaze not focused on anything. When she came back, her eyes found Angel’s in the deepening twilight. “I can’t believe how badly I’ve messed up my life. Everyone tells me how smart I am, but I had to call you because I couldn’t figure out what to do on my own. I can’t even take care of myself: how am I supposed to help the kids of the world who need it? I’d probably make things worse.”
Angel came up and stood next to her on the edge of the bluff. She took Monica’s hand and said in a quiet voice, “Why don’t we just Thelma and Louise it then?”
“Huh?” Monica stared at her friend.
“You’re a complete and utter loser. A failure. A pimple on the donkey’s ass of society. What’s the point in going on?” Angel took a step closer to the ledge. “Right now. Couple of steps and we’re flying, at least for a few seconds, then it’s all over. No more Peter, Jon, Crew Cut, your mom, the mob, the dream, any of it. A quick, neat end and all your little problems are solved. Come on, let’s do it!” She pulled Monica’s hand. “Right here. Right now. I’m not screwing around. Ready? On the count of three. One…”
Monica gaped at her, looked over the edge of the cliff, and then back at Angel.
“Two…” Angel took a step back, tensing to run.
“Ang, I don’t know.”
“What?” Angel snapped, turning to her. “What don’t you know? It sounds like you’ve got it all worked out! It’s been kinda tough, so let’s just fold up and let those bastards win. Oh, poor me. I’ve been so abused. My dad died, and my mom’s a whore. Sure, I’ve had a friend that always, always has my back and a surrogate family. Sure I got straight A’s in high school, a full ride to NYU, and had plans to be a big-shot lawyer.”
Angel threw her arms up in the air. “But shit got a little rough for a while ’cause I was helping take down some low-life scumbags. Life hasn’t been ideal lately, and there’s simply no way to get back to the dream. I can’t do that with another identity, which is what my friend is going to insist on when we get to the effing FBI headquarters. Oh, poor me.”
Angel turned back to the cliff and took another step back, tensing her body for the final leap. “Come on! You’re right. There’s no turning this boat around. Let’s do it! Let’s end this thing! Ready?”
Monica’s mouth still hung open. Her jaw bobbed up and down, but no words came out, making her feel like a guppy. As hard as she tried to stop them, the edges of her lips curled up, and she giggled. She tried to stop, but the giggles were relentless and attacked her. She laughed harder than she had in years as she mimicked her friend. “Right here. Right now. I’m not screwing around.”
“I’m not. Come on, let’s go.”
Angel’s serious demeanor only made Monica laugh harder. “Let’s Thelma and Louise it.” She fell on her butt in a cloud of dust, not caring about the dirt. Tears streamed down her cheeks.
Angel’s face cracked, and a smile played across her lips. A groan turned to snickers, growing until the full belly roll took her. Their combined laughter echoed, amplified by the canyon walls until it sounded like an auditorium full of spectators at a Jack Benny premiere. They lay on the flat rock, the dust clinging to their sweat and tears.
As they regained control, Monica looked at her. “I love you, you know that.”
“Of course you do. I’m awesome.”

Monica started laughing again, and they lay on the ground holding hands as the sun finished its decent to the west, and darkness claimed the desert.

Dave: Can you tell us a little about your writing philosophy?

Deek: Humility. It's as simple as that. I don't try and direct the story. I know my place. I'm a transcriber, and my characters are the dictators, telling me their tale. I simply write what I see.

More humility: Your editor is your friend and right 99.99% of the time. My bride is a brilliant grammar ninja and storyteller. When she says something needs to be fixed, I usually do what she says. I say "usually" because there is that 0.01% of the time I stick to my guns. My content editor, Anya, also gets the same treatment. She's really awesome at the macro level of a story. I've had to do some very painful cuts and rewrites at her direction.

But the story is #1. Always first it's about story. Ego has no part in telling a story.

Dave: Have you ever tried writing in any other genres?

Deek: That's an interesting question because while I was writing 122, a couple of other stories emerged. I just recently published a humorous women's lit story called Birth of an American Gigolo. The gist of that is that a woman catches her husband cheating, but because of financial reasons can't leave him. Instead she starts a business that she runs out of her home, while getting a really fantastic revenge against her husband and the woman he's cheating with.

I actually wrote Birth right in the same pages of the 122 manuscript. I just happened upon this character, Lindsey, who decided that it was her time for her story.

Man, characters can be bossy!

Dave: Do you have any interesting writing-related anecdotes to share?

Deek: I stole one of my character's name. Wut? Yep! There is a character, Max, you'll meet in 122's follow-up book, 122 Rules - Redemption, who originally was named Deek, but I liked his name so much I took it for myself.

My birth name is VERY common, so trying to make my name stick out among the millions of others was almost impossible. One of my all-time favorite Stephen King books is Needful Things. In that story, there's this character, Deek, that doesn't get but a page or two of face time. I always loved the name and stole it for my character as a nod to the great author. Well, flash-forward a bit, and I decide to give myself a pen name. I took Deek as my first name. Rhew is actually my wife's maiden name. Together we are Deek and Erin Rhew of Rhewination!

Today, we are announcing my adult thriller novel, 122 Rules



Synopsis

In his black and white world, Sam Bradford--former Marine turned government assassin--finally sees a speck of grey. He has always followed orders without question, but his latest assignment threatens to disrupt the precision of his universe and may either severe or redeem his last remaining sliver of humanity.

Using his mastery of the 122 Rules of Psychology, Sam hunts down everyone The Agency sends him to find and eliminates them. Just as he has his rifle scope focused on his latest victim, Monica Sable, a SoCal girl entangled with the mob, his long-dormant conscience reappears for a final performance...one last ditch effort to save the sinking ship of Sam’s soul. He’s killed innocents before, but tarries on pulling the trigger this time.

When Monica escapes his crosshairs and fumbles her way across the country in a pathetic attempt to elude capture, Sam gives chase. But he’s not the only one after her. Ruthless henchmen, hired by the mob, froth like bloodhounds and nip at Monica’s heels. Now Sam is faced with a choice: turn his back on the rules and jeopardize his way of life by helping her or join the pack and rip her to shreds.
