Turn Conversations With Book Authors Into Interview Articles

In fact, ask the author if you can tape record the conversations and then use both sides of the conversation in an interview format.
If they agree, go ahead and mention that they are the author of a book and plug the book somewhere in the article, or mention that they wrote the book; "Such and Such.
" After doing this now several times, I have been amazed at the ability to rapidly produce articles this way.
After all, you can take a 2-hour conversation and make it into a good 40-50 articles, and best of all you are getting total expert advice and opinions this way.
