Here is a list of who is on #SmallBizChat in February:

Julie Anne EasonFebruary 4th: How to Write Your Book FAST! (Even if you’re super-busy, flunked English, or hate to write), @BizBookWriter
Julie Anne Eason has been a professional writer for over 20 years. After figuring out that fiction writing wasn’t for her, she turned to freelance journalism and copywriting for a living. As technology advanced, she witnessed the balance of power in the publishing industry shift. Once, the big New York publishers held all the cards. Writers were “lucky” if they could land an agent or a book contract. But now individuals are taking the initiative and writing, publishing, and marketing their own books without the need for an agent or publisher to give them a chance — which means that finally businesses, non-profits, and entrepreneurs can take advantage of the amazing power of books.

Today she ghostwrites full-length books for entrepreneurs, speakers, coaches, CEOs, and other business people who want to expand their reach and build their brands. And most recently she has combined her love for marketing and writing to create The Successful Author Podcast, where she interviews book industry experts on writing, publishing, and marketing books. You can find more information and free training on her website JulieAnneEason.com

Alfred Edmond Jr., best known as an award-winning journalist, editor and media executive with Black Enterprise and host of the nationally syndicated radio feature Money Matters for American Urban Radio Networks. Edmond was spokesperson and co-designer of the Alfred Edmond Jr. Bow Tie Collection for Nashville, TN-based Windsor Neckwear.  Zara Green is an author, speaker and trainer specializing in personal growth, resiliency development and individuality advocacy.

Her latest channel is www.profitabilityrevolution.com, helping small business owners run their business better, make money, live better, enjoy freedom, and give back.
