How I did it: I found an illustrator online, and worked with him via the web to illustrate my book. I originally used AuthorHouse.com as a POD publisher, but they turned out to be a huge costly mistake. I ended up using CreateSpace.com and the experience was much better. I formatted my own pages, and submitted the book. Pricing was very reasonable for Print-On-Demand. Read how I did it…
How I did it: We hired a guide for 2 mornings, and did the rest on our own. It's important to plan where you want to go, because traveling the roads is touch and go since the Bison use them to migrate. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Searched online, and sent out countless emails. Most illustrators didn't even reply. I finally found an ad on Craigslist.com, and they responded the very next day. Read how I did it…
I’ve decided to take a different approach to writing. Instead of just working on it in private, I’ve made my progress public.
I created a blog where I will post updates as I write. I know there will be changes, and edits, but at least I get the story out. With a blog format, people can comment and give ideas and feedback.
What do you think?

I have been volunteering my time at a place called Panther Ridge Conservation Center in Wellington, Florida. Not only have I had the pleasure to make friends with cougars, leopards, ocelots, jaguars and a cheetah, but I’ve created an adoption program for them, a donation web site, and I have arranged photographer tours.
I may not be doing the hands on part, but I think this still qualifies as helping to save animals :)
I’ve been volunteering at a place called Panther Ridge Conservation Center, and I’ve even arranged photography tours via Meetup.com. This offers me a great opportunity to take photos of some amazing big cats.
I am also visiting a farm sanctuary later this month.
I’ve even setup a site for all my photography photos using SmugMug, http://www.dbnature.com
