4 Why did you want to write an e-book?
I am starting to look more for e-books since I have a lot of my music organized in an app on the iPad. I know others can use this format.
5 What was your process for developing your e-book?
It began as a printed document that I was putting together for a class I was teaching at a dulcimer week for adult beginners, including those in the Road Scholar program, and since I put this together completely in an electronic format, it was easy to make the decision to go with an e-book.
6 Favorite book (e-book or print) related to Music Therapy
I keep the Guitar Songbook for Music Therapy by Kathryn Scheldt and Frances McClain on my desk at all times.
