Self-publishing author, freelance writer, food blogger.

Smashwords Interview

What motivated you to become an indie author?

I love to write, and although I only write non-fiction, I hope my writing helps at least one person in some way.

How has Smashwords contributed to your success?

Without the support of Smashwords, I doubt I would have had the confidence to try self-publishing. Mark Coker writes his guides in down-to-earth language that spells everything out for you. Unlike traditional print publishers, he and his company do not have that 'holier-than-though' attitude that has plagued the publishing industry for the past 100 years.
