I owe the completion and success of my book to a big cardboard box that saw me through the entire process. I found this box and filled it with any and all information I could find on my topic ?advanced presentation skills for speakers and business presenters.? I printed out articles I had written, listened to tapes and read every single book on presentation skills that has ever been published.

The Writers Identity: Exploring the Writer Within


Les Edgerton writes in his book, Finding Your Voice, that the best way to find your voice is to write autobiographically. "Writers will never find a powerful, evocative voice until they learn to be bone-deep honest with themselves, open and vulnerable." I believe that Mr. Edgerton is on to something.

If I could interview an author whom I admire, I would most want to know what helped him or her get to that magical place.
