Dollars and Sense for Writers: A Guide to Managing Your Writing Business

Biographie de Linda Mickey

Touring the county morgue, chatting with forensic scientists, and figuring out who killed whom...that's what Linda Mickey likes to do. There is something special about the hours spent at the keyboard crafting a whodunnit: developing characters, understanding the crime and why it was committed, then planting clues and red herrings in the narrative. At the same time, Mickey is fascinated by the business aspects of writing and publishing.
As a speaker and workshop facilitator, she is frequently asked as many questions about how to manage a writing business as how to create believable dialogue. In fact, queries about publishing industry-related topics came up so often that she complied what she knew about business and what she had learned about the publishing industry into Dollars and Sense for Writers. Mickey is employed by a small accounting firm.
In other words, her life is all about death and taxes.
