In this episode of TALK JAM, we have our first special guest, John Soforic, best-selling author of THE WEALTHY GARDENER: Lessons on Prosperity Between Father and Son. This excellent book on personal finance, which John wrote for his son, has taken the publishing world by storm. From its beginning last year as a self-published finance book with unusual spiritual overtones, it has become a major success, partly due to John's own unique marketing choices. It was picked up late last year by Random House/Penguin and re-published in February in a new edition. John talks to Kelly and Susan about his journey as a broke thirty-year-old who vowed to change his financial future to his success in real estate. Then his retirement at age 49, to the writing of the book and his choice to self-publish. His journey to learn the marketing process and his incredible negotiations with his new publisher to achieve the best possible positioning for the latest version. John's candid and humble look at his writing life is a revelation; listen and learn what he learned!
