Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I persue a corporate career in a big multinational, woriking in sales and marketing. I do present and sell my ideas, projects and products on a daily basis, and used that experience to write my first book on the topic just this October.
Apart from that, I am building my writing skills, as i want to develop as an accomplished author. I have quite broad interests ranging from data science to fiction and poetry.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The name of my book is “GREAT STORYTELLING IN BUSINESS: How to present your data as a compelling story?”. I got inspired by my professional experience and the notion we still see so many great ideas and products fail due to poor presenting to the right people in the right way.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I think I’m quite structured when writting, following a strict plan with milestones and deadlines. I’m most productive in the morning, so i wake up early and write every day for at least 1 hour.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I has inspired to start writing by Grant Cardone, to the greatest extend. I like his passion and drive and i am trying to breed these in myself as well.
What are you working on now?
I am currently fascinated by blockchain and cryprocurrencies, and am collecting my knowledge and experience in a new book, that I hope to finish till end of the year.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I couldn’t cite a “best method”. I believe in providing great content and after i will reach my readers as well as i can.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Just start writing! Don’t wait a second, formulate your idea, make a simple plan, and write everyday.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
The one I mentioned above.
What are you reading now?
I’m currently reading “Arch of Triumph” by Erich Maria Remarque
What’s next for you as a writer?
I am working on my second book, planned to publish in January 2018. Apart from that i am working hard on expanding my writing skills, learning from great authors, writing in different genres.
Of course, in the mean time I am trying to reach as many people as possible with my first book and hopefully help my readers with ideas and concrete solutions to their issues.
If you were going to be stranded on a desert island and allowed to take 3 or 4 books with you what books would you bring?
If i could only choose three, that would be:
1. The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Douglas Adams – as i would like to laugh as much as possible
2. The Master and Margarita, Mikhail Bulgakov – as i will have plenty of time to hink over human nature and purpose
3. Slaughterhouse Five, Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. – to remind myself that it is not that bad being stranded on a desert island
