Professional Background

I've written a number of books, eight of which have reached the New York Times bestsellers list, including one which reached the top spot and spend 26 weeks in the top ten (other books hit #2, #3 and #6).

How has being an English graduate from Duke University helped shape your professional success?

My Duke courses not only sparked an appreciation for language and literature, but gave me confidence to forge ahead in the field.
