Author Interview Series: Writers' Quirks Featuring RB O'Gorman

Today on my author interview series called Writers’ Quirks, I'm interviewing medical thriller writer R. B. O’Gorman, author of Fatal Rhythm.

Thanks for joining us, R.B.! Congrats on the Suspense Magazine award for Fatal Rhythm, by the way. 

Now to the quirky questions...

Have you ever fallen in love with one of your characters?  
Not fully.

What is the best place for dreaming up your story lines? 
My bed, as I’m falling to sleep. I like to visualize my characters and dream about what they’re doing.
 
What is your favorite snack while writing? 
Buffalo wings

 
How do you feel about pen names? 
No problem. I chose to use my initials so that reader wouldn’t have a pre-conceived bias based on my race/gender.
 
What is the most not-true-to-self writing or marketing idea you’ve considered (or done!)? 
I thought about wrapping my Smart car with my debut novel cover.
 
How are your books different than the millions of other books? 
It’s a medical thriller but has an important theme of spiritual redemption.
 
What one question has no one asked you about your book/character/writing life that you wish they would? 
Is R. B. O’Gorman willing to help write the screenplay for the movie version starring Josh Hutchison, Scarlet Johansen, and Liam Neeson.


So are you willing to help write the screenplay for the movie version starring Josh Hutchison, Scarlet Johansen, and Liam Neeson
Yes. You need it tonight? No problem.  

Where can we cyber-stalk you, I mean, learn more about you? 
My Facebook page.

Thanks, R.B.!
