What inspires you to write?
Desire to share my ideas with others and receive some recognition for my research work
Tell us about your writing process.
I keep notes in notebooks and quotes on note cards. I then create outlines of for each chapter I wish to write centered around my notebooks and note cards. I write a rough draft, then keep fine tuning and editing until I feel I have said all that needs to be said.
What advice would you give other writers?
Work hard on your book proposal and query letter.
How did you decide how to publish your books?
I wanted to have a big name published behind me on my first book. I spent considerable time on my book proposal and had all three publishers I approached offer me a book contract. I negotiated on the best one with the help of an attorney. If I had to do it again, I might go with an agent just to simplify everything.
What do you think about the future of book publishing?
e-books and self-publishing are the waves of the future
What genres do you write?: non-fiction business books
What formats are your books in?: Both eBook and Print
