Immortality and Beyond

Please join me today at Immortality and Beyond, where I am interviewed about my writing habits and my most current work.

One of the questions I was asked is what advice I would give to new or aspiring writers. My answer was immediate: take your ego out of your work.

I have been fortunate to meet dozens of authors every year, ranging from the unpublished to New York Times bestselling authors. One of the characteristics that I've found can stop an author in their tracks--even before they get started in this industry--is thinking their work is above reproach. No author's work is perfect and you can only improve if you're willing to listen to what others have to say, consider their opinions, and work to make your book even better.
