5. Your word play seduces the mind
with tantalizing thoughts and imagery of intimate concupiscent. What inspires
you to write in such a manner?
The woman. I view everything as a woman… literature, photography, etc. In my opinion, women are the greatest gift to man besides life itself. When I write, I travel the course of a woman’s body and give her my verbal usage as my genital organ. In this manner, I’m stimulating her mind and her body volunteers to get involved.

6. Erotica has been catching a lot opposition
of late. Do you believe there is still a need for erotica? There is absolutely a need for
good Erotica. Opposition comes because people still haven’t used sexuality in a
context that results in everyone being comfortable in their skin. Reading
Erotica remains a taboo. Yet, we have individuals professing their sexual
preference. Erotica as a genre invokes a reaction most want to unveil in the
privacy of self. Zane has been able to cross over into the mainstream scheme of
things. However, the respect of craft is still seen as a forbidden fruit.
7. Is there a difference between
erotica and porn? Some people can’t differentiate between the two.
Erotica deals with sensuality. Porn explores the uncut action.

8. Erotica is all about sexual
fantasy. In what way do you find it appealing?
I find the entire fantasy ride to be pleasurable. When you’re able to take a situation and develop a strong sense of emotional journey, I believe you engage the mind to wonder. In this accomplishment, you can visit the interaction of characters like you’re a fly on the wall. Most often, you can take off your shoes and place your feet in those you’re reading.

9. Is there another genre you would
like to dip your pen into?
I’m from Chicago, Illinois. Our flavor is a blend of all things, which makes our Midwest style a standalone taste. I translate this into my literary work. From my catalog of work, the mix achieves my goal of not being creatively boxed into a particular content.

10. I’m curious about your writing
process. Is there a method to your daily grind?
My writing process involves getting into a zone by allowing the characters to converse in my head. I attentively listen as they direct where I pen the direction of a plot. As I sit at my laptop, it’s as if I’m a notes taker.

13. I heard through the grapevine that
you are working on a new project called Alphonse, Illinois: Bounty Lines. Can you tell us about it?
I was challenged by a friend to use my talent as a writer to take readers to a place. Being a Libra, I enjoy challenge. My love for literature maintains I devote my work to her craft. Alphonse, Illinois is the combination of my middle name with the state of my birth. In this setting, I’m able to transition the reader from Alphonse’s unsettled land and create a history behind its civilization. The personalities that make Alphonse, Illinois a place you want to be will be the prize apple of my eye.

14. What inspired you to write this
book of blended genre?
The inspiration stems from my upbringing in Chicago, Illinois. The tradition from which I was exposed to has become somewhat of an endangered species. My grandfather loved western movies. My father developed this fondness for shoot ‘em bang, bang as well. I tap into this genre with Alphonse’s early development. Recalling good music, family gatherings and the hangouts of my predecessors, I give you a glance into soul singing and poetry in the second installment of Alphonse, Illinois. Chicago has a concrete jungle environment within its opportunity to become whatever or whomever you strive to ascertain. Rather than divulge in the street vantage point of storytelling, I present another angle of survival of the fittest. Corporate America is filled with gangsters, money, sex and deadly consequences. The third installment of Alphonse, Illinois proves a hustler/business person is as good as their flow of word.

16. I’ve been noticing the Ringo Starr
a lot lately. Assuming it is your logo and extension of you, what does it mean?
With my last name being Ringo, people always joked as well as associated it with the Beatles’ Ringo Starr. Quite naturally, I took the perception and adopted it as my signature.

17. What do you do besides write?
Writing introduced me to another love of my life: photography. As with literature, I explore the sensual side of a woman’s beauty. I detest mainstream’s popular opinion that thin defines beauty. Moreover, my camera eye delights in capturing the allure of curves. Women should not be ashamed of their shape, complexion or femininity. Image is everything. Confidence is her skin is an art form I tastefully encourage from photo sessions.

18. So, you are into graphic design
and photography, interesting. Do you design your own book covers?

19. I believe a book cover plays an
important role in readers purchase decisions. What’s your opinion on the power of a book cover?
A book cover is the first impression. From its detail, attraction and attention is captivated. As with my stories, I aspire to award the readers with my vision of artistic freedom.

20. How can our reader learn more
about you and your books?
I stepped into the literary arena November of 2007. First and foremost, I consider myself a student of literature. The years have taught me patience’s reward. Quality reads will characterize my longevity in literature as a career. I’m currently sculpting a catalog of novels to publish. It’s my dream to have them available out the gate together. For now, you can follow my path on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Recognize-Chris-Ringo-the-Author/579699075427142 and Instagram: ig: recognize chris ringo

21. Before we close, are there anything
you want our readers to know, and can you pen my autograph book?
Readers should know my passion for literature and the value I have for your comprehension will always pump my heart and direct my pen. Again, my signature style is suggestive vocabulary. No matter what I compose, the underlining statement travels the extremities of your bodily function to wet panties. I seek to have your intellect masturbate on the g-strings of my well-endowed masterpiece. I plan to tour state to state in order to meet and greet those who value good reading.
