Cats are patient creatures. Mia and Leo can sit in a window for long periods of time watching and waiting, with tails wagging and mouths watering. I hear them make chirpy sounds attempting to charm little birds or when they see squirrels and other small creatures. I watch them around the apartment as they prepare to strike any strange object, crouching down, focusing, sneaking ever so slowly in the direction of their prey and waiting for just the right moment. Then, they pounce-on each other, on my foot or finger, on a toy, or on anything that moves and catches their eyes. I don't know what goes on in the minds of cats, but it appears that they enjoy the ritual of the hunt. Much like their cousins...

Sleeping is always a game trying to sleep while listening to the high pitched screeching in your head. It can literally drive you insane. Listening to music all night...

Mechanical locks or a vacuum secure the printing medium as it slides through the printer. If the medium were to slip, the printed image would be out of...

If it's your first book, then probably not. The truth is that becoming a bestselling "anything" takes building momentum. In other words, this means developing a following of people before anything is even formally produced. Think about high school, where the popular kids could sell flat tires and just about everyone would buy them. The same holds true for people who have long since graduated or left high school. Popular people can sell just about anything. This is why marketers use celebrities and other public figures to endorse their products. This also brings me to another principle: selling the idea comes before selling the product. In the book business, you need to become popular or at least...

It took Michelangelo from 1508 to 1512 to paint the Sistine Chapel. It isn't really uncommon for a manuscript to take that long, either. It depends on where you are at in your life. If you haven't begun yet and it's been in the back of your mind for a while now; if you've started it and haven't gotten around to finishing; if...
