Once called “the cutting edge couple of the new millenium,” Deb and I have written together for more than 20 years. The “cutting edge” part refers to the things we often write about—technology that’s part of our culture and our lives. Think of e-commerce and eBay and Amazon, TV, solar energy, the Internet, and telecommuting. We’ve written 18 books from The Complete Guide to CompuServe (McGraw-Hill, 1991) to Kidnet: The Kid's Guide to Surfing Through Cyberspace (HarperCollins, 1995). Our bestselling book is eBay PowerSeller Secrets, which is in its 6th printing, with more than 40,000 copies in print.
We're now moving with the technology and everyone's interests focusing on e-commerce and Amazon, and Web 2.0 books about YouTube and LinkedIn. Amazon Top Seller Secrets is our most recent book, with How to Make Money on YouTube coming out in May.
You should know a bit more about us before shelling out that hard-earned cash on our books. Brad was America Online's Editorial Director during all that craziness of the Internet boom era. You should hear the wild stories he tells about those times. Deb’s worked as an editor for McGraw-Hill, and now works as a children’s librarian when she’s not writing books.
Deb frequently speaks at libraries and other venues on topics related to our books. She's gotten rave reviews for her delivery style, and ability to provide an audience with just the information they want.
Publications such as Newsweek, The Chicago Tribune, Life Magazine, Woman’s Day, and U.S. News and World Report have featured our work. We're also consultants for such firms as the Gerson Lehrman Group and DeMatteo Monness.
