Interview with Author – Tiffani Burnett-Velez
About Tiffani Burnett-Velez: I began my freelance writing career in 1996, when I sent an article to a dog magazine in hopes of unloading the trauma of having taught myself to walk again after a battle with a paralyzing and rare neuromuscular disease. My dog had hip dysplasia and both of us had been carried up and down the stairs by my husband at one point during our mutual recovery periods. The publication very kindly rejected the horrible piece, but they encouraged me to write more and said I … [Read more...] about Interview with Author – Tiffani Burnett-Velez

advice to aspiring authors – Guest Post by Zach Abrams @Authorway
I have a few suggestions for aspiring authors. The first and most important thing I'd say is persevere. It takes a lot of time, effort and commitment to complete a book and a lot of resilience to see it through to publication, not to mention the knock backs along the way and afterwards. Two more things, (i) try and write something every day, it doesn't matter how much, just so long as you're making progress. (ii) Don't keep going back to 'perfect' your first chapter(s) without continuing your … [Read more...] about advice to aspiring authors – Guest Post by Zach Abrams @Authorway
