Questions about the author

Someone asked me recently, "What will you do if this book gets published and ends up being really successful? What will be next?"

I had no good answer for this. It's related to the question, "Why are you taking this on?"

Both are valid. The real answer is that it's just an idea and subject that fascinates me and I thought it would make a really interesting book. I'd like to get it published but haven't thought beyond that as to what I might do if it is actually successful.

On the other side of it, a reader may ask, "Why you?" I know that if I was picking up this book I might wonder why a musician and marketing strategist is writing a book about human sin and how we should address our most basic flaws.

I'm going to deal with that question in the preface of the book but the short answer is that developing an understanding of how people think and function has been critical to my work both in the artistic and business worlds. People interest me, and that interest translates into a variety of outputs.

And so I move forward on this passion project, and I guess we'll just see what happens next.
