IndieView with Brian Felgoise and David Tabatsky, authors of Filthy Rich Lawyers

This satirical thriller reveals how our legal system enables lawyers to get filthy rich. As Mortimer Zuckerman, real estate magnate and media billionaire, once said, “Practicing law is the exact opposite of sex. Even when it’s good, it’s bad.”

IndieView with Hayley Kaplan, LCSW, author of You Can’t Complete Me But I Can!

I knew that my book was relatable, and so I made the terrifying decision to unleash my dirty laundry into the world.

IndieView with John F Duffy, author of A Ballroom for Ghost Dancing

My good friend actually did care for his cousin, who was like a brother to him and who was also a great friend of mine, as he slowly died of a terminal illness. Our discussions about how hard that was and the emotional aftermath were the impetus for the characters and their internal struggles.

IndieView with Lois and Ross Melbourne, authors of Moral Code

At times I struggled with how far in the future to place the story. We’d extrapolate where a type of technology would be in twenty years or we’d dream up something really far-fetched, then I’d read that MIT was already announcing something similar was in their labs.

IndieView with Kyomi O’Connor, author of A Sky of Infinite Blue

No matter what styles of writing I do, poems, prose, or essays, they are part of my spiritual pursuits. So, writing about my deeper reflections and finding something universal appeals to me. I write everything with my own spirituality.

IndieView with Khristin Wierman, author of Buck’s Pantry

I received the most glowing turn down from an agent. She’d read the entire manuscript and went on and on about my characters and the story but told me she just wouldn’t know how to position or market the book. At that point, I just felt like I had to try something outside of traditional publishing.

IndieView with David Gorman, author of The Arcade Absurdity

A reader suggested that I write a mystery about someone cheating at the arcade games. I liked the idea, but I wanted to somehow involve a ride as well, because each of my mysteries centers around a ride at Waldameer. The Mega Vortex is a flashy ride that I knew would look great on a book cover, so I worked on connecting the dots.

IndieView with Rebecca Stirling, author of The Shell and the Octopus

A memoir feels very vulnerable. And, I wanted to be true to my memories, yet still honor all of the characters in the story with dignity.
