Judi Moreo, author of the self-awareness book, You Are More Than Enough: Every Woman’s Guide to Purpose, Passion, and Power, is here with us today at Author Talks!AUTHOR TALKS: Welcome to Author Talks, Judi! Can you tell us a little about yourself?
JUDI: I am a professional speaker and trainer. My subjects include Communication Skills, Creativity, and Customer Service. I specialize in attitude. My friends and clients say I am an expert in overcoming life's challenges....and I'm sure that's true. I've had my share.
AUTHOR TALKS: How long would you say you have you been writing?
JUDI: I have been telling stories ever since I began to talk, but actually writing them down started when I was in high school.
AUTHOR TALKS: Has it been a bumpy ride to becoming a published author or has it been pretty well smooth sailing? Would you like to tell us how you became published for the first time?

AUTHOR TALKS: Has it been a bumpy ride to becoming a published author or has it been pretty well smooth sailing? Would you like to tell us how you became published for the first time?
JUDI: It has actually been pretty well smooth sailing. I started reporting for a local newspaper when I was in high school which led to becoming a columnist. And even though I've had many other jobs throughout my life, I've continued to write free lance for magazines and newspapers. I self published my first two books. Then was asked by a publisher to write my third book. Asked by another publisher to write my fourth....This new book "You Are More Than Enough: Every Woman's Guide to Purpose, Passion, and Power" came about after my first attempt at writing a query letter at the Henderson Writer's Conference and showing the letter to a publishers representative. He liked the idea and took it to his publisher and now...the book is in the book stores.
AUTHOR TALKS: Can you please tell us about your book?
JUDI: "You Are More Than Enough" is a self awareness book. The idea came about as a result of traveling around the world speaking each day to audiences of 50 to 3000 people and asking the question, "Do you feel you were created for something more?" and watching 3/4 of the audience put up their hands. I have shared in this book, tools and techniques that I used which helped me in my journey to become the person I knew I could be. It was my goal in writing this book to help others make their lives a little easier, a bit more successful, and a great deal more satisfying.
AUTHOR TALKS: Do you plan subsequent books?
JUDI: Yes. The companion journal to You Are More Than Enough has been delivered to the publisher for production. In addition, I am working on a children's self esteem book and another success book.
AUTHOR TALKS: Are you a morning writer or a night writer?
JUDI: I'm a whenever-I-can-steal-a-few-minutes writer. I write in the morning, afternoon, and at night. I write in hotel rooms, airplanes, airports, restaurants.
AUTHOR TALKS: Any final words of wisdom for those of us who would like to be published?
JUDI: Continue to write, to submit your work to publishers for consideration, go to writer's conferences and if need be, self publish. Don't let others discourage you.
AUTHOR TALKS: Thank you for coming, JUDI! Good luck to you and happy sales!
JUDI: Thank you and remember....you ARE more than enough!
