Benny can trace the origin of his love for storytelling to reading Jack London’s The Call Of The Wild when he was seven years old, and listening to his uncle tell stories of being an artillery cannoneer in North Africa and Italy during World War II. His life-long dream of having a novel published was realized with the 2020 release of his debut novel, CODE GRAY, a thriller/mystery dealing with politics, murder, voter manipulation, and the money behind all of it.Connect with Benny Sims on Instagram:author@btsims17--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast.  https://anchor.fm/appSupport this podcast: https://anchor.fm/katherine-hutchinson-hayes/support

Elections have consequences! Award winning author Benny Sims discusses his thriller CODE GRAY

Benny Sims is a fan of Lee Child's, Jack Reacher series. He's worked with the aerospace industry making windows for the President's Air Force One. Benny has always liked storytelling. He can trace that fondness to reading Jack London’s The Call of the Wild when he was in second grade and listening to his great uncle tell war stories from his time as an artillery cannoneer in North Africa and Italy during WW II. Benny was born and grew up in middle Tennessee, but his family moved to Benton, Illinois. It was there that his teachers noticed his aptitude for writing and encouraged him to pursue it. He attended college at Murray State University in Kentucky where he studied journalism. After college, he landed a job as sports writer and editor with a small newspaper near his hometown.  Benny and I have a great conversation. We talk about his really good prologue which didn't make it into the book and why (YouTube link below), as well as Lee Child's writing style of two steps forward and one step back. I learned about the Fairness Doctrine. Have you heard of a pitch party on Twitter? You will today. And Benny surprised me when I found out when he wrote Code Gray, his debut novel. Benny writes like a seasoned author with multiple novels under his belt.
