What inspires you to write?
I was blessed to work at NASA for 30 years. While it is a unique place, there are leadership and workplace culture lessons that can be applied to any team or organization.

What authors do you read when you aren’t writing?
I like the writing of John Maxwell, Jon Gordon, and Patrick Lencioni

Tell us about your writing process.
I compile many keynote speeches given over the years, determine an outline and an acronym that can be used to pull the content together. I then determine stories to share–from previous blog posts and writings–that fit with the content.

What advice would you give other writers?
Consider starting small…with blog posts or summaries. Determine the points you wish to make and the content that you may have. Keep your book under 20,000 words. That was great encouragement to me to get the project to the finish line.

How did you decide how to publish your books?
For my first book, I wanted to get it out there as an extended business card to Christian audiences. So, I chose a hybrid publisher and did most of the work myself. For my second book that was targeted to a Business Audience, I wanted a stronger marketing push and went with a more traditional publisher. There are a variety of different ways to publish a book, so it greatly depends on your goals and the budget you have. Most authors will tell you that you won't make money from the book itself but from the opportunities it generates.

What do you think about the future of book publishing?
Since the beginning of the year, Artificial Intelligence has helped more authors publish books. My publisher mentioned that publication has increased by 40% this year. I think we will see exponential growth in the market. In light of that, authors need to ensure their books are written and published in their authentic voice.
