Interview with M Sheehan, Author of SkyView: Lord of the Wills

What can you tell us about your new release, SkyView: Lord of the Wills?

Well, I don’t want to give to much away but so far the reviews have been amazing, Kirkus called it “Tolkien-Like” which was humbling as J.R.R. Tolkien is my favorite author. My book SkyView Lord of the Wills, however, occurs in modern times where William Ward is informed he is an heir to a vast fortune that’s been lost for 700-years, thus he embarks on his adventure, setting many idle things in motion.

What or who inspired you to become an author?

J.R.R Tolkiens’ works, mainly The Hobbit, and Lord of the Rings, definitely kindled a little writing fire in me that I couldn’t ignore.

What’s on your top 5 list for the best books you’ve ever read?

Lord of the Rings
Hobbit
1984
Dune
The Count of Monte Cristo

Say you’re the host of a literary talk show. Who would be your first guest? What would you want to ask?

My first guest would be J.R.R Tolkien and I would simply ask if there is any more detail he could provide.

What’s your favorite thing about writing?

My favorite part of writing is having full control over an entire world.

What is a typical day like for you?

Right now it’s a blend of finishing Book 2, promoting Book 1, and hanging out with the family in-between.

What scene from SkyView: Lord of the Wills was your favorite to write?

SkyView is a Jet with a large AR window to see the world. My favorite scene in the book is when William sets a default spot above Eupore to watch the world and figure out the mystery behind the Wills.

Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?

If one holds the world’s knowledge, then one can shape its reality.

M Sheehan is the author of the new book SkyView: Lord of the Wills.
