Interview With Author Travis V. Brock
Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
“I worked for 19 years as a mediator for many companies around the world. I love getting to know new people and studying their behaviors. In the last two years, I started writing to share what I’ve learned during these years. I have published my first book, ‘Reading People Like a Book,’ and I’m currently finishing another one in which I aim to teach how to communicate with anyone without causing embarrassment. I’m collaborating with Ellen W. Sadler, a mindfulness practitioner, as she writes an outstanding book about emotional intelligence, and I’m assisting her in this endeavor.”
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
My first and latest book is titled ‘Reading People Like a Book,’ inspired by my extensive career as a mediator around the world
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Good question! I enjoy writing in a bar. I find a corner for myself, order a beer, and write while surrounded by people.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I really enjoyed the books by Dale Carnegie and Napoleon Hill; they are true masterpieces.
What are you working on now?
I’m working on a new book about the ability to talk to people, it will be available soon!

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?
Oh, God, all my favorite books are about relating to other people, and they don’t seem useful on a desert island! So, I think I will choose some titles from Ken Follett. I really enjoy how he writes.
