The interview:
Q: What inspired you to write your book?
I am a curious individual who is always looking for practical and effective ways to improve my quality of life. In this quest, I discovered very useful information over the last decade. If this information is applied, it can make a big difference in the life of anyone. I wanted to share this valuable information with as many people as possible, so I started writing this book.
Q: What Was Your Favourite Part Of Publishing Your Book?
The creative process of combining different disciplines in a coherent story by establishing the flow and structure between the chapters and making sure I convey as much useful information as possible, in as few words as possible, while relating to as wide an audience as possible. I also enjoyed tweaking the images and design to represent an artwork.
Q: What Advice Would You Give An Author Planning To Publish Their First Book?
Enjoy every step of the journey, and don’t rush the process.
