"Rather than repackage the same information in multiple books, I wanted to cover all federal tax compliance and planning issues in one book. TheTaxBook Deluxe Edition combines individual, small business, accounting, and bookkeeping compliance and planning issues into one book. I believe including all topics in just one convenient book is important when making the claim that your product will help readers find answers, fast."

"I felt that continuing my tax practice was important to my career as an author. A tax professional that gives up their practice and writes based on reading theory would be like a food critic who gives up dining in restaurants and presents opinions based on reading recipes. I believe a book written by practicing professionals offers a unique perspective that other practicing professionals will appreciate."

"I was fascinated with the concept of improving the way we could present the information. What are the most common questions we have while interviewing clients or preparing returns? I think it's a great idea to put all of that information right on the first few pages of every tab rather than make the reader hunt for information."

"I was happy to rejoin my former colleagues in a small business environment where those of us producing the product have management control over important content and format decisions. I believe a book gets its reputation from its authors, not the store they buy it from."

"I liked the idea of being able to provide author comments. Often times we know how something is supposed to work, but the code and regulations are silent regarding the issue. Within TheTaxBook we will provide the reader our opinions and tricks of the trade."
