Book Writing and Editing

His Voices from the Underground Series was the most diverse mosaic of the Vietnam era antiwar movement ever written.

His books have been celebrated internationally.

 

As a member of National Speakers Association, Ken offers group and personal book coaching and book editing. Speakers and others learn how to write and publish the books they need for credibility and back-of-the-room sales.

The Power of Book Writing

Through these experiences and many others, Ken experienced the liberating power and joy of writing and researching.

And he discovered his own wondrous ability to guide others on their book-publishing journeys. He says:

“I’ve seen writers transform their lives with my personal book coaching and feel it a mission to help others to do the same.”
