“I always wanted my books and stories out there, but I hadn’t actually done anything about it, hadn’t really focused on it. But then I finally started thinking, all right, I’ve got to do something—anything—just do it!” -from my interview with Heather Newman

Heather Newman does many wonderful things, among them being the founder and CEO of Creative Maven, and the co-founder and CMO of Content Panda. Along with being a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP), which is how we met, she has a wonderful podcast called Mavens Do It Better, where she showcases experts—mavens—in their respective industries and fields who live their passions and spark up the world.

You can imagine how thrilled I was when she wanted to do such an interview with me!

You’ll hear (or read via the transcript) how I got started with technology and worked my way up to where I am now, and then we go full-tilt into the children’s book world. Enjoy!
