Interview With Author Mark Aquino
Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am a registered nurse in California. I have written two books so far and counting, coming out with more. I just want to share more wisdom with the world through my experiences and knowledge.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
EMPATHIC Ninja: How to Deal With Difficult People With Tips From a Nurse is my latest book and it is inspired by my experience in home health and hospice care. As nurses, we interact with people face to face on a daily basis, and it can be a challenge sometimes. And with with the general public, most of the challenges of life is in dealing with people, and if you have this skill mastered, then you are able to respond to a lot of life’s problems. I hope this book will help you with your people skills better.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I tend to write in passive tone a lot because of my habit with writing nursing notes.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
The Bible especially the book of Proverbs. This book really sells you on the value of wisdom. You can read each chapter in one day for each day of the month because Proverbs has 31 chapters. In months where there is only 30 days or less, you can compress the 31st chapter into day 30.
What are you working on now?
More books.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
OASISNinja.com has my collection of books I have published and it is a growing list so check it out.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Knowledge is power. Share your knowledge with the world through books and make money doing it.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Life is serious but at the same time it is also not that serious.
What are you reading now?
The Bible
What’s next for you as a writer?
More books. More marketing.
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?
The Bible, my first book, my second book, and the book I am currently working on now.
