Interview with writer Justin Blackburn

La LIbertad: When did you start writing?

Justin Blackburn: I was seven years old and the recently deceased Roland Dahl came to me in a dream and told me I was going to be a widely read, influential writer and I needed to get started to help inspire myself and everyone else as well as the people who were sad with him in heaven.   

La Libertad: What do you write?

Justin Blackburn: Poems, essays, novels, short stories, screenplays, comedy bits, tv pilots, songs, shopping lists, affirmations, organization intentions.

La Libertad: What inspires to to write?

Justin Blackburn: The joy, the pain, the fear, the expression, the need to release, the desire to understand the beauty, the want to be love. 

La Libertad: Do you ever get "writer's block"?  If so, what get's you through it?

Justin Blackburn: No, I never do.  I have the opposite.  Always too much to write. 

La Libertad: What are your current projects?

Justin Blackburn: I just had a book of poetry published called "You Are Not A Normal Human Being" published by Virgogray Press.  It is an amazing.  Everyone could buy it.  That would be awesome.

La Libertad: Do you have any upcoming projects?

Justin Blackburn: Yeah, I am manifesting a literary agent for a novel I finished The Upper Middle Class Suburban White Boy Enlightened Guru Blues as well as an inspiring book about how we are all perfect and we are remembering that we already know and how that book will help us remember.  It is called "Enjoy The Irresistible Present"  I also have another book of poetry coming out sometime soon called "Child be Wild" 

La Libertad: Do you have any others talents or hobbies?

Justin Blackburn: Yes, I am an intuitive inner healer, meaning I help people clear their negativity and understand they are creating their own realities and can be as happy and as beautiful as they choose if they simply allow themselves to be.  Also I do stand up comedy.  Also I memorized the dictionary and the 1987 version of Encyclopedia Britannica.  

La Libertad: Do you have any websites or contact information you would like to share?
