Why did you pursue writing?
As a child I used writing as a way to express myself. It was an awesome outlet for feelings I
may not have wanted to tell anyone.
As an adult I continued to write and I always enjoyed it, but never
shared it because I always thought others wrote much better. For years friends have been encouraging
me to publish my poetry (which I may do soon), but my insecurities about
writing hindered me until one day I came to the realization that I can not ask
other to conquer their fears, if I were not conquering mine, so I wrote and
self publishing Brand Legacy – Make Your Mark.
What inspired your book?
The idea of the book was inspired by one of my favorite
basketball players – Earvin Magic Johnson. Magic, built a name for a himself as one of the best
basketball players in history, however when he was diagnosed with a disease in
the prime of his career, everyone thought his life was over. Magic not only proved, he was strong
enough to survive the disease, but used his brand to build an empire… a
legacy. As I would talk to
clients and friends about personal branding, it hit me one day… Although we may
not have Magic’s money and notoriety, we all have a personal brand and we
should utilize it in order to build the life that we want to be remembered for.
How long have you been publishing your work?
Although I have been writing all of my life, Brand Legacy
is the first book I have officially published.
