My good friend Kaycee Conners did a terrific job coming up with the questions for the interview she posted today in her Wordpress blog, http://pubd2b.wordpress.com/. This one really made me think.

Hope you'll all have a chance to pop in for a read and post a comment. All of my personal interviews will be posted to my website, …

I am new to this website and to the business of publishing. I have spent my career helping other people through coaching and leadership and have decided to pursue my dream of writing a book. My book is currently in the development and writing stage and I anticipate it will be completed and available in early December. The final title is expected to be ready within the next week or so and I will put it on the website as soon as possible.

The book focuses on helping people overcome the…

I loved reviewing this book as Macaulay's drawings are EXQUISITE, and I have often wondered how on earth people centuries past could have created such architectural masterpieces as the mosques that adorn the Istanbul skyline.

Not a dry and dusty architectural text book, but a storyline that breathes life into these old stones ... next time I visit the Blue Mosque I swear I will be able to hear the ghost of the architect giving orders to the chief foreman, as the artisans' hammers and…

It's amazing to me to find that there are so many published, maybe not well-known, authors around. This weekend there were 2 at our local Farmer's Market trying to market their books. I know that the competition is tough, but strategy and hard work at marketing could be the best keys. Get your name out there. Make sure you have a website where people can leave you messages if you need to contact them. And make sure that you give out business cards, post cards, whatever it takes to everyone…

Funny word, blog.

It's not the type of word you'd envision associating with literature or the arts.

Who'd have thunk 20 years ago, everybody would be blogging it.

Blog, as you would note from my post title, reminds me of the Irish word "bog".

A bog, admittedly a rather odd word in the same vein as blog, is a section of wet spongy ground. Ireland has its share of bogs. Bogs are a natural resource that provides Ireland with "peat". Peat sounds like the boys name…

August 4th: Today's special treat is an excerpt from Cheryl Kaye Tardif's new bestseller Whale Song, a novel that will change the way you view life...and death.



So drop by her host site, sit back with a cup of coffee and enjoy the prologue and first chapter.



I ONCE FEARED death.

It is said that death begins with the absence of life. And life begins when death is no longer feared. I have stared death in the face and survived. A survivor who has…

Welcome to my page. I am on a mission here.

What are my goals? To network with new writer friends, learn about the book marketing business and get my book into the hands of the world. I believe in it. When you read it, so will you.

Authors ask me a lot if there is anything they can do to help the marketing effort. What, besides smile at everyone at your book signings, speak clearly when you do presentations and always dress nicely? :) Of course!

There are a few websites now where you can enter some of the info on you and your book(s) and post it for free. Now, keep in mind that most of them want to upgrade you to a paid account of some kind. You probably don't need to do that. Here is a list of websites I have…

What is the purpose, what is the path of my life?
