Sobre IBD

During a yearlong office-cleaning project the author reflects on his life as a writer and as a reader, addressing several themes: the place of physical books in an ever-increasing digital age, the impact of social media on publishing’s rapidly-changing landscape, the skill set an author needs to survive in today’s publishing world, and the author’s measured transition from traditional author to independent author/publisher. Written in four parts reflecting the four seasons of the year, W. Nikola-Lisa offers fifty-two brief sketches of his life as an author, a reader, and a book collector. A fascinating, but quick read filled with insight and humor.

However, reader beware: this is not a user’s manual, nor is it a logical argument for or against astrology. It’s more a tongue-in-cheek, behind-the scenes look at the fascinating world of this ancient, though...

  • This We Pray | Sea of People
    W. Nikola-Lisa / WNikola-Lisa
    The times demand a response. Some people prefer prayer and contemplation. Others prefer action. Both are acts of civil disobedience in their own right, just at opposite ends of the spectrum. Over the years I’ve come to believe that both are indispensable, that they are two sides of the same coin, distinct but inseparable. Prayer can be a powerful tool, but it is slow in its eff...
