Cool Jim Butcher, author of the Dresden Files series, answers Ten Terrifying Questions


The Booktopia Book Guru asks

Jim Butcher

author of Dresden Files Series
Ten Terrifying Questions
____________

1. To begin with why don’t you tell us a little bit about yourself – where were you born? Raised? Schooled?

I was born, raised and schooled in Independence, Missouri, USA. My dad worked in a steel mill and my mom sold real estate, and I went to public school. After winning a National Merit Scholarship to the University of Oklahoma, I went down there for my college education, which is where I (eventually) learned about the craft of storytelling.

2. What did you want to be when you were twelve, eighteen and thirty? And why?

At 12, a singer, because I liked music. Around 18 I thought I’d go into computer programming because that was where the video games lived, but by the time I was 19 I had realized how tedious that kind of job would be for me. From there on, I wanted to be a writer, and that’s all I wanted to be.
