What happened to Story Time With Row?
It is on hiatus, at the moment. It takes time to make a video and gathering the content. With the launch of the second book, I’ve had to shelf it for a while.
What exactly is The Beast Series?
It’s a healthy blend of Urban Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Christianity, and Mystery, with three cups of Pop Culture Humor and Romance.
How can you tell that it’s a book series?
Every book will have the word Beast in the title.
What is the age range for your book series?
15+
Is there a theme tied to this book?
Family is the most important theme. We all need someone in our corner, whether it’d be your parents, friends, coworker, etc.
Who’s the real main character(s) of this book series?
Mark, Andrew, and Shanta are the main characters for this book series. I want to see them grow into adults, deciding how they’ll live their lives after high school. However, this team has many more members, who also go through struggles and need support.
If this book series has so many genres rolled into one, how should I view it?
You should view this as a giant mystery, with smaller sub stories. Each book feeds you clues as to what the Big Bad is plotting, while giving you an insight on all the members of the Yajuu no Bronx team.
Why add Christianity to this book series?
To showcase my faith while telling a compelling story. I believe we all were created for a purpose. Whatever that purpose is depends on the person. The same is applied to all of the members of Yajuu no Bronx. They each have a degree of belief in God, and will get tested for it. Some will grow their faith while others will follow Lucifer and his forces. It all depends on how they act in the book series.
Does Anime play an important role in this book series?
It sure does! Anime is referenced through the book series, by a select few characters. This is to show the realism of Anime’s influence in our world.
