Ronda’s Amazon Author Profile

For Immediate Release: Author Ronda Del Boccio

Ronda Del Boccio learned that people considered her different in a bad way when she was about six years old. She does not see the same way others do, and in the world of children, this is cause for bullying and harassment. Yet Ronda took what she now calls a “Jonathan Livingston Seagull” attitude, because fitting in was not of great importance to her.

Ronda may not see well, but she has a strong vision that guides her life. She uses the power that comes from her blindness to empower her and inspire others. She believes Persistence,tenacity, humor, intuition and ingenuity are traits that serve her well now as an entrepreneur author.

She has turned her love for storytelling, mythology, symbology and folklore into books, short stories, tools and teachings that help people better understand themselves and more easily connect with everyone. Like Kathie Lee Gifford, she KNOWS “Everyone has a story” and she helps them tell it with ease and style.

Ronda loves writing. “It gives me a chance to get paid to eavesdrop and spy on people,” she quips. She is internationally published on 5 continents and has won awards for her tales.

She is working on the novel she began in November 2014 during National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo It’s called They All Died Smiling, a paranormal suspense story about an unwilling demon fighter trying to save lives while she herself is targeted.

Possible Interview Questions

You certainly do not need to stick to these, but this should make your life easier. Use the questions that best suit your audience, but don’t feel limited. I LOVE “winging it,” so you do not need to stick to what’s here. I’ll go with the flow.

  • How many guide dogs have you had?
  • In your inspirational nonfiction book, I’ll Push You Steer you talk about training your own guide dogs. Why did you do that?
  • Your current dog, Diva, came from a school, didn’t she? What made you choose a school over training a dog yourself?
  • You talk about “gifts of blindness.” Do you really feel being unable to see has gifts or benefits?

  • Can an object be haunted? If so, is there any way to clean or clear it?
  • Your main character Kassidy from They All Died Smiling talks about putting on her “golden armor” when dealing with the supernatural. Is this purely fictitious, or would something like this work for real people?

Book Writing Made Easy Joins Heart and Marketing

If only we’d known early on how book writing made easy can join with heart marketing to create a joyful experience of both self-expression and selling and marketing.

But no… instead…The other day we found the first document we wrote together (an advice doc about relationship problems that we advertised in the National Enquirer in 1987…shhhhh)

Fortunately we sold only one of them and promptly put ourselves out of that ‘Mail-order” business idea

AND thank goodness! The writing was horrible! Truly a mish-mash with no organization, no focus – quite a mess!

Now we later went on to become the authors of 5 best-sellers – 4 books about romantic relationships and our latest – The Heart of Marketing – Love Your Customers and They Will Love You Back (Morgan James)

BUT – oh what we would have given for someone with the right expertise to guide us through the book writing process to make it easier and faster. And if only there had been someone who could have guided us through the process of discovering the soul-felt service of heart marketing our books –

But there was no one…

Now we know that the real fact is, writing a book is easy when you have a step-by-step roadmap to guide you from start to publish – and beyond – and The Story Lady Ronda Del Boccio’s program helps you plan for your larger future with your book – even before you start writing.
