With the success of his recent feature article on Jordan Peterson, Sam now claims the award of being the most-read contributing writer at BlakeWrites! The success of his content is for good reason– he's got a very clear writing writing style and guys just find his work valuable.

What would your dream job be and why?
My dream job would be to make a full-time living publishing books. This would be my ideal job because it would be challenging in all sorts of ways, as well as offer a high degree of creative freedom.
Why do you write?
I write because I find it's the most natural and fulfilling way that I can express myself. I'm also constantly 'brainstorming' ideas, thinking deeply and introspectively about subjects that matter to me, and so I want to share those ideas to see if they resonate with anyone else. I really enjoy the sharing of information and the conversation that can start.
What do you hope readers get out of your work?
I hope readers can find a positive or impactful message from my work. My ultimate aim is to be able to make some difference through my writing, however small that may be.
Finally, we have to ask... boxers or briefs?
Boxers
