Welcome! Do you want to become a published author or poet? If so, here is a question for you: What do these authors and their books have in common? Christine Montross - Body of Work: Meditations on Mortality from the Human Anatomy Lab, Nancy Spears - Buddha: 9 to 5: The Eightfold Path to Enlightening Your Workplace and Improving Your Bottom Line , Patti Lawson - The Dog Diet: What My Dog Taught Me About Shedding Pounds, Licking Stress, and Getting a New Leash on Life, Dawn Knight - Taliaferro, Breaking Barriers from the NFL Draft to the Ivory Tower , Frances Jewel Dickson - The DEW Line Years, Voices from the Coldest Cold War, Dr. Gordon Dragt – The Resurrection of New York’s Famous Middle Church: How What I Learned Can Save Your Church, Sam Drash - Reaching Paradise Through Intercourse: American Towns with Unique Names, Charles Pearson - The Last Expedition , Ron Lowry and Mary Walker - Chasing Lewis and Clark Across America: A 21st Century Aviation Adventure. The answer: three important things – each is a first-time published author, each was published within the past three years, and each was mentored using the proven guidelines and strategies that have worked for me as the author of nearly twenty books. Hopefully, their success story, and that of many others who have used my consulting services, will be an inspiration for you as to embark on a journey toward becoming a published author or poet. As for me, through the blessings of the Good Lord, my published books include the latest, Melvin Belli, King of the Courtroom, a tribute to the legendary San Francisco attorney. Among the others are Miscarriage of Justice, the Jonathan Pollard Story, Forever Flying, Larry Legend, Down for the Count, Bury Me in a Pot Bunker, Clydesdales--the World's Most Magical Horse, and The Perfect Yankee. Five books written about the writing and publishing area have now been condensed into one book, How to Become a Published Author: A to Z. I use it at writing and publishing seminars around the world. All of my books are available at www.amazon.com.A rich background for writing these books, and for mentoring aspiring authors and poets, has been provided by being, among other things, a criminal defense attorney, a newspaper owner, a bookshop owner, and appearing on television and radio as a correspondent and legal analyst. Curious about alternative religions, I have finally completed the study of theology at San Francisco Theological Seminary. This has occurred at the ripe young age of sixty-two when I should be sunning at the beach! When I am not writing, I enjoy spending time with my lovely wife Wen-ying Lu, and our trusty Labrador, Black Sox. I also cheer for my beloved Chicago Cubs, a team of destiny that will be the 2008 World Series Champions! While I am truly a blessed man through God’s grace, nothing is more satisfying than mentoring aspiring authors and poets and watching them realize their publishing dreams. If you are interested in my consulting services, at a reasonable cost, please email me at mshawin@yahoo.com or call 970.618.2027. Blessings and good wishes for 2008. I hope to hear from you soon.
