21 Things You Should Know About This Author

What book have you gifted the most? Why?

I have actually gifted my “Home Workout For Beginners” book the most. This was one of the first books that I had written and enthusiastically tried to get as many eyeballs on it as possible.

What is the one productivity tool you use every day? Why?

I don’t really have a “Tool” but I do make sure of a few things before I sit down for a writing session –

Unplug the phone

Fill my laptop screen with my document, the last thing I need is my sales dashboard, ebay or social media distracting me. I also close down my email.

Probably most importantly, I make sure that my dog, “Lebowski” is happy and suitably tired. An energetic Jack Russel is not the best for focus or productivity.

What word do you misspell most often?

There are so many words that I misspell. I know for a fact that if there was no such thing as spellcheck, I would not be in this game. Some that spring to mind though are – Recipe, believe, circuit…… Surprisingly, I got them all first time when writing this! J

What three things do you do to be a successful writer?

#1 – I am passionate about my subject and I would like to think that this shines through in my work.

#2 – Breaking things into manageable tasks is a must for me. Once the starting blocks are down, more efficient work can be done

#3 – From a nonfiction writer’s perspective, I make sure that everything I publish offers great value. If the reader is happy, than I am happy.

What are the titles of the last two books you have read?

I am a huge fan of the publications of “Black library” and specifically the “Horus Heresy story”. The last book that I read was in this epic series and it was “Prospero burns”

What is your favorite word?

I use this a lot in my videos, but it rarely makes the final edit: #$@&%*! Luckily, there have been no slips with this word on live appearances to date.

What do you use more often – a dictionary or a thesaurus?

I would say about 50/50 – Check the thesaurus, find an interesting word, head over to google to see if the meaning matches….. I would say that my vocabulary has developed in an exceptionally immense manner by utilizing this method….. Yep, that’s an example of it in real time J

What would you name the autobiography of your life?

James Atkinson – The guy who never gave up

What is your ‘go to’ munchie or drink while writing?

As I am a fitness author,
