At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?

I did not start writing until I hit 45.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
I enjoy sci-fi, regular science and autobiographies.
My favorite writes are Orson Scott Card, Roger Zelazny, Neil Degrasse Tyson, Michio Kaku, Piers Anthony and Corey Taylor.

The Last Child: The story centers around Kyle Jordan, who, by the simple act of being the last child ever born, instantly becomes the world’s most famous resident. As humanity faces the greatest challenges in our history; governments, religions and scientists struggle to find answers. Will the planet and our species find a way to survive extinction?
