Interview with Author – Holly Bertone

By Book Goodies


About Holly Bertone:
Holly Bertone, CNHP, PMP, is a #1 Amazon.com bestselling author and health entrepreneur. She is the President and CEO of Pink Fortitude, LLC and runs the health and wellness website pinkfortitude.com. Holly is a breast cancer and Hashimoto’s survivor and turned these two significant health challenges into a passion to help others. She inspires others with her quick wit, brutal honesty, and simple ways to be healthy in real life.

Holly is a Certified Natural Health Professional and is enrolled in a Naturopathic Doctorate program. She holds a Masters Degree from Johns Hopkins University, a Bachelor’s Degree from Elizabethtown College, and is a Project Management Professional (PMP).

Holly is passionate about reaching out to cancer and autoimmune survivors, and also volunteers for organizations supporting our military veterans. In her free time, she loves to garden, and hit flea markets and yard sales. Holly is married to a retired Green Beret, is a stepmother, and lives in Alexandria, VA.

What inspires you to write?
I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2010, and Hashimoto's one year after treatment ended. I've wanted to be a writer since I was a child, but these health challenges were the catalyst for me to write and help inspire others through their trials.

Tell us about your writing process.
I'm one of those people who like to sit at the keyboard and close my eyes and it all comes out. The writing is raw and real and from my heart.

How did you decide how to publish your books?
I started with an email and then a small blog to my family and friends while going through cancer treatment. This morphed over the years into a health and wellness website with over 100,000 followers and a million page views, and seven books.

What do you think about the future of book publishing?
I personally enjoy the flexibility and freedom of self-publishing. It lets me be me with my own voice and not be constrained by the dollars of a publishing house.

What do you use?: Professional Editor, Professional Cover Designer

What genres do you write?: Right now all non-fiction in health and wellness

What formats are your books in?: eBook, Print, Both eBook and Print
