THE INTERVIEW QUESTIONS:

Tell us a little bit about Grein Murray!

When I’m not writing I like going to concerts. Music is a big part of my life, I’ve played bass guitar since I was a teen. I love nature and enjoy hiking and working with causes that help protect our planet and wild animals. I have loved books all of my life and have always enjoyed escaping the ordinary world by getting lost in a good book. I read a lot of different genres of books but have fallen in love with MM. I support the gay community and hope one day people will see that love is love and that it is a beautiful thing no matter your gender, race or religion. Joshua and his story have been in my head for years but I never took the time to write it. With encouragement from some fellow authors and friends I took the leap and now all of you can get to know my characters and I hope you love them as much as I do.

Can you give the readers a brief summary of your latest book?

Joshua and Michael’s marriage has been going well until the letters arrive. Disturbing letters show up threatening to out Joshua as an ex-porn star. As the letters escalate so does Joshua’s fear. When the stalker strikes, Joshua’s loved ones need to pull together to help Joshua, but can they do what needs to be done to make Joshua safe?

What genre does it fall in?

Gay Male Romance

Will you share a few words about your latest book, other than the usual blurb?

Book 3 is the final book in the Joshua series

Give us a little insight into your main characters! Who are they?

Joshua was a runaway that briefly becomes a porn star along with his best friend Max. They both left abusive families to find a better future for themselves.Little did they know they would find the loves of their lives through their job.

Will we be seeing these characters again any time soon? Is this book part of a series?

Yes

Tell us a little bit about your writing style. When and where is your favorite time/place to write?

In the privacy of my office. Sometimes things come to me when I’m out and about and have to email or text myself things.

What sort of book do you enjoy reading in your free time? What was the last book you read? Did you enjoy it?

For Me by Brina Brady. I love all of her books

Did you always know you wanted to be a writer? Have you held any interesting jobs while you worked on your books?

I was told by my English teacher that I should be a writer but up until 2015 I never gave it much thought.

What does your writing process look like?

A mess of out or order files then I piece it together. I rarely write in order.

Why did you choose to write GLBTQ romance? Why not another genre?

I read a book by John Tristan which was my first MM book. I fell in love with the book and the powerful love between two men. I have had gay friends since I was pretty young so it came natural to me to write in this genre. I also am a huge supporter of the gay community.

One last questions…totally unrelated to books! I am a passionate foodie. Is there one thing in your pantry that you would be horrified for people to know that you eat?

candy, and lots of it!

Thankyou so much for answering my questions. I think my readers will enjoy learning more about you! Good luck in your future writing!
