Sadly, the topic of refugee crisis often finds relevancy around the world in today's society. Author Joanie Schirm's award-winning debut book, Adventurers Against Their Will, shares the heart-wrenching stories of her Czech Jewish refugee father and family and friends during World War II. There is a lot that can be learned from these stories that isn't being taught in schools today, and her message of moral generosity has gained much interest from the media. While some journalists have found her through other contacts in her network, Schirm has initiated conversations with many journalists, resulting in appearances on programs such as "Growing Bolder" and National Public Radio. The key to securing interview opportunities, she says, is putting yourself in the journalists' shoes. They will want to know why your book is relevant and why they should care about your message or platform.
