Editing (and Cutting) Is Essential for Good Blogs, Articles and Books

Editing is part of the writing process. Someone once said that writing is really re-writing. That’s the truth. The first things you write will rarely see the light of day. That’s because you will revise, edit, cut, trim and add to your prose. It is hard to delete words and sections. However, if deleting 1,000 [...]

Leaning by Teaching

I presented a workshop to my local chapter of the National Speakers Association last week. It went really well. They always say the teacher learns more than the students.

Speaking tips from Don Rickles

I caught Don Rickles’ act in Las Vegas many years ago. It was a very unique experience. While most people were dreading sitting in the front row so they wouldn’t get picked on, they needn’t have worried. He didn’t make fun of anyone in the audience. In fact, he didn’t tell one joke. Instead, he [...]

Why I Won’t Buy Your Book for 99 Cents

  I’ve been trying to crack the code for selling books online without spending a fortune on “bestseller campaigns” or spending thousands of hours pestering friends to buy books.
