I love it when they enjoy the story or characters or in my biographies, the historical facts of my subjects. I also love seeing my name on the cover of my book and knowing that I created it. It's like giving birth to a baby. I spend years of total amazement that I actually birthed a book! And there is deep satisfaction in knowing all the hard work, sleepless nights, and endless waiting for editors and agents finally paid off.

“A professional writer is an amateur who didn't quit.”
Richard Bach

“Writing is like driving at night in the fog. You can only see as far as your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way.”
E.L. Doctorow, Writers At Work: The Paris Review Interviews, 2nd Series

“If you are working with authors, you are accepting a great responsibility and must tread very carefully. The author's work is a part of herself, a creative endeavor she has poured her heart and soul into. Protecting and nurturing that work and the author is part of the job of a publisher.”
Terena Scott, What You Need to Know to Be a Pro; The Business Start-Up Guide for Publishers
