Hi All -

I'm very interested in the entrepreneurial side of writing since it's so hard to support yourself on book advances alone these days. It's also why I also work as an editorial consultant and multimedia events producer. I'm so interested in other ways people are making money. Please check out my work at www.lehmannhaupt.com, and here's my bio:

“Lehmann-Haupt is a skilled, empathetic writer and an excellent researcher, alert to the absurdities and ethical ambiguities of her quest, and she has written a valuable guide." - The Washington Post
