WIPPWired – June 2009
WIPP Member Profile #1 – DeAnne MusolfThis month in WIPPWired we begin a series of member profiles to share with our readers. The profiles will also appear on our Web site at www.wipp.net.
WIPP member and editor, Suzanne Connolly talked with one of our newest members, DeAnne Musolf, to discover a little about her, why she joined WIPP, and what she is working on and thinking about these days.
We hope you will enjoy learning more about WIPP in our member profiles and are pleased to begin the series with DeAnne Musolf, an author, writer, journalist and extreme athlete who’s latest book, co-authored with former speed skating Olymipian Eric Heiden and Dr. Massimo Testa, Faster, Better, Stronger will be released in paperback on June 23rd.
WIPP: DeAnne, how did you first become interested in publishing and what keeps you involved?
DeAnne Musolf: Writing seized me at a very early age. I confess that I was fascinated with quotation marks; that spoken words looked as if they were moving on the page. Seriously, publishing is such a pure form of communicating with someone who may share nothing else with you besides an interest in a topic. It’s one mind to another mind. Okay, there is an editor or two in the middle there and a layout person, but it's not like film, where writer friends of mine often do not recognize their story by the time it gets to the big screen.
