I love helping authors and businesses get off on the right foot, or back on track if things have veered off course.
Speaking
I love to speak and teach about self-publishing and online marketing topics. Do you need a speaker for an upcoming event or panel discussion? What about a fund-raising workshop?
Click here to visit my speaking page and then let’s discuss your organization’s needs.
I am a publisher, self-publisher and founder of a professional self-publishing services company (AuthorImprints.com). I have authored three publishing how-to books and a popular video training course for LinkedIn Learning (formerly known as Lynda.com).
I’m a technology guy who loves publishing and teaching. I miss my native LA but now enjoy the ocean breeze of Carlsbad, “The Village by the Sea.”
I’m particularly proud of my work for the 1984 Olympics (LAOOC) and Times Mirror (parent of the Los Angeles Times), and as co-founder and COO of a venture capital-backed Internet start-up that is still around today (CBS College Sports).
