Favorite Quotes:

"I've always found the law fascinating. When I talk to lawyers, I think, these are my people."

"There's a lot of predatory behavior in the publishing industry. I've been called the pioneer of integrity in publishing because I tell it like it is."

"I would never tell somebody who wants to publish traditionally, 'Don't do that,' because that's a dream, and I don't want to step on dreams."

"Whatever kind of book you write, you still need to share about yourself because that's what makes you human."

"I don't think AI will replace your expertise or unique experience—the thing that makes you, you."

"When you're doing what you love, even when it becomes a J-O-B, a strong 'why' can still grow that company beyond what you imagined."

"You have to touch the dream. If you don't put yourself in those circles and spaces, it will never feel real."
