Award-winning author Joanie Schirm spent a lot of time defining the theme and message for her debut book, Adventurers Against Their Will, a narrative nonfiction about her family&#39;s experiences during World War II. The message that she communicates in her interviews and speaking engagements is moral generosity, or taking action to help someone else, even if it puts you in danger. The key to an impactful message, Schirm says, is to be prepared and be consistent. Work your platform or message into your responses wherever you can.</p> </div> <div class="asl-wikipage-media"> <p><a href="https://www.authorlearningcenter.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-01-31/Condensing-Your-Story-Into-a-Sound-Bite-for-Media-Interviews.mp4">www.authorlearningcenter.com/.../Condensing-Your-Story-Into-a-Sound-Bite-for-Media-Interviews.mp4</a></p> </div><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: fiction, Nonfiction, Subscriber, video</div>
