A couple of things: 1) Be ready to pay a bit of money for book cover designs, formatting costs, and editing services, etc., and to spend some time preparing your book for self publishing; 2) Any free marketing tool available, use it! It's the indie author's job to get themselves out there; and 3) Be in it for the right reasons. We don't all make a ton of money for our work, but we all love what we do and the people we meet along the way. Thanks for your question! Good luck to your brother!

Other creative minds inspire me to use my outlet. There are so many amazing authors, screenwriters, and even song writers who have influenced me over the years. After watching a great film, or reading a beautiful novel, I can find myself imagining worlds of my own, and it is in those moments that I am my most creative.

It may sound strange, but I had a dream one night about a beautiful young woman wearing a hunter green dress who was attending a dinner at a fancy restaurant. I also knew that this woman had a hurtful past, but she was trying to overcome it, and fulfill a favor. The rest of the story compounded around this one moment. The characters, the setting, the drama; it all was born from one glimpse at a moment in the storyline.
