Interview with Elphas Sipho Mdluli

Published 2017-04-10.
What is your e-reading device of choice?
I e-read using my Samsung tablet and a smart phone.
What has influenced you to be an author?
I enjoyed sharing what I have learned through life experiences with as much people as possible. I learned that everyone becomes an expert in certain areas of his life in a unique way. Everyone is an expert in the eyes of those who look to him.
When did you first start writing?
I started writing in year 2010 writing articles and submitting them in recognized article directories and my blogs. After submitting and publishing an article, I just feel good about it.
What's the story behind your latest book?
In fact the book I am publishing now is my first book. This book is on starting and managing a business profitably. The reason behind it is that there are many people who want to start businesses but that ends as a dream. Having the experience of a General Manager of a financial institution (co-operative), I felt led to share from the pool of my business experience. This book will act as a business manual guide on how to start a business and manage it profitably.
What motivated you to become an indie author?
In fact I never thought of this initially. But it has been in my heart to be a published author. This will enable me to be in control of my publishing work.
How has Smashwords contributed to your success?
Since I am new to Smashwords, I am still looking forward to a great experience. This platform has easy guides on how to do my publishing work in a professional manner.
What do your fans mean to you?
They are very important because without them there would be no place to share this helpful information. They are the reason for writing and publishing these eBooks. With their contributions and feedback, we improve ourselves.
What are you working on next?
After publishing the eBook on starting a business and managing I will finalize my book on 'How to pray and get results'.
Who are your favorite authors?
These are Joanna Penn, Andrew Wommack, Kenneth Copeland, DYSON, J. R., KOTLER, P., KELLER, K. L, etc.
What inspires you to get out of bed each day?
The fact that each day is an opportunity to experience life as a gift from God and make a contribution to the world through what I do.
When you're not writing, how do you spend your time?
I work on my Block Yard, read books to add knowledge, and watch TV for current news.
