Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’m a long time teacher. I focus on teaching entrepreneurship and passive income creation. I’ve written 4 books that are available on Amazon. I’ve also edited and published over 100 book by different authors.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Content is King – How to Write Killer Content for the Web.
The inspiration for this book came from my Udemy course by the same name. I love teaching people how to write, how to publish online content and how to earn passive income. It just made sense to follow up the course with an eBook
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I love using dictation software to write. I’ll stand at my stand up desk and chat away at the computer. Then I’ll copy it into Word and re-write and revise and edit what I’ve dictated. It’s a really fun way to write. It goes faster and provides more variety than sitting at the computer the whole time.

Tim Ferris, Tony Robbins, Tom Robbins, Jack Kerouac
What are you working on now?
I’m writing a book on how to publish books on Kindle.

I normally rely on excellent keyword selection and let Amazon market my books. Lately, I’ve been growing an email list on my blog and that has been great for promoting my books.
