In this specially-themed episode, Marvin and Fred speak to three contemporary writers of non-fiction and discuss the steps in the writing process that take place prior to and after the actual “pounding it out” on the keyboard. Tracey Friesen shares with you how ideas for subject matter present themselves and how to locate natural partners to assist in bringing your book to publication. Eric Termuende describes the importance of a team consisting of other writers, editors and promotional efforts to get the book polished, published and then properly distributed and sold. Patrick Dillon, opera critic and interviewer in New York City, suggests ways to act upon your particular passion and generate writing assignments for yourself. Once again, we find there is no ONE way to pursue a career in creative arts endeavours … there is only YOUR way. But where writing careers are concerned, there are thousands of willing role models such as other writers, editors, publishers, design artists and public relations professionals eager to share their ideas for success with you. Begin here with these three professionals: Tracey, Eric and Patrick. Then get to work!
