I would like to talk to you and maybe pick your brain. I really want to learn from someone that is doing what I want to do.
gracias.

Hi Joey,

I have been a published writer for the last 15 years, with seven books on the market.

See: http://www.careerpress.com/book452.html

and

I recently completed a screenplay based on my book, Identity Theft and am the spokesperson for Capital One's Identity Theft Prevention Program.

See:

Although I'm not particularly fond of the phrase "pick your brain," I'd be happy to give you some basic advice about pursuing your writing goals.

Best wishes,

Robert

Don't know if it counts, but I'm currently writing a book on my religion's thealogy (no, not a typo).

It's one of the reasons I turned to Learning Strategies Corporation - there's no way I can assimilate the massive amounts of knowledge I need to write this book without PhotoReading, unless I'm willing to take a VERY long time.

My current phase is studying ontologies in order to have a clear metaphysical stance. It's difficult, as I naturally find myself becoming more and more of a positivist as I age. I guess a natural part of growing up is having one's certainties turn out wrong so many times that one becomes less and less certain. This, perhaps, is wisdom - the willingness to have one's beliefs challenged and adjusted. LSC has helped a lot with letting me know in course after course, tape after tape, that it's not only OK not to know everything, but BETTER to not know everything, because the less we assume as certainty the more room we have to learn and to improve our knowledge and ourselves.

Whoah, how's THAT for a tangent!
