Everyone seems to have an idea for a book, movie or TV show. Bringing those ideas to life, however, is the hard part. Author K.M. MacKinnon joins Tim and John to talk about what every writer knows: It’s tough to get into the publishing world. Her first book, “The Book of Our Past Lives” was self-published using the more traditional model—working with a copy editor, cover artist, and printing thousands of copies. Her latest work, “The Lesbian Guide For Straight Men on How To Make Love To A Woman,” is a tongue-in-cheek book of funny rhymes/tips meant to be a conversation starter. It’s also self-published, but using print-on-demand technology. There are pros and cons to both approaches, and either model offers a route to getting your work in the hands of readers. With an English Literature degree from UCLA, and years of experience, our interview with K.M. MacKinnon should not be missed.
The show will end with another edition of Tim’s List, so get ready to join the conversation at 866-305-6887.
