For years author Russ Gehrlein had been giving motivational speeches to local church groups when one day his wife suggested he turn his PowerPoint presentation into a book. It took some time, but Russ was able to repurpose his research into a published book which has been picked up by an independent publishing company and can now be found in bookstores everywhere. Not only does Russ share his story with us on this episode of The Author Inside You podcast, but he also explains why research is important when it comes to writing a book.
