How To Go From a One-Book Author To a Multiple-Book Author
Moderator:
Michael Sullivan, Professor Emeritus, Mathematics and Computer Science, Chicago State University, and author of three Precalculus series and one Business series
You've written one successful book, but where do you go from there? Sullivan, the author of two successful mathematics series, will share how you can build on the success of your first product to author multiple books or a series of books. He will cover how to approach a publisher about the idea for a second book; whether you should go to your current publisher or seek out a new one; as well as how to manage multiple books.
Michael Sullivan is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at Chicago State University where he taught for 34 years before retiring a few years ago. Sullivan has been writing math texts for over 30 years. He currently has 15 books in print: three Precalculus series with Prentice-Hall and one Business series with John Wiley. Sullivan is a member of the Council of Fellows of TAA and has been awarded a Texty and a McGuffey award for two of his books. He is currently Treasurer of the TAA Foundation and a Past President of TAA.
