A Proper Introduction

I’m not exactly a newbie here, as I’ve been putting my 2
cents in on a variety of topics for the past month or so, and decided that it’s
about time I properly introduce myself!
Devine Write, LLC, is a tiny little business owned and operated
by Kevin Devine (that`s me with the glasses in the photo!).
Most of my working career has been spent as a technical
writer, which means I write hardware and software manuals for high-tech
companies. I have worked for large companies, small companies, and have been
self-employed as well.
Mid-way through my career I discovered that I loved adult
education, so I returned to school for a Masters degree in Adult Education, and
got a job at a local nonprofit. There I taught generally low-income participants
about self-employment and small business for over 5 years, until the program
was eliminated due to budget cuts.
As a result of my work, I have written two books. Unlike most
business books, mine are written in an engaging, easy to understand style, and
are especially useful for those who are still exploring their self-employment
dreams. In 2005 my first book, Building
Your Business Plan, won the Best of Show award from the Chicago chapter of
the Society for Technical Communications.
Based on the wonderful feedback from my business plan book, I
created another, more basic guide to starting a business, Building Your Business. I also created a new curriculum and I am
again teaching business classes for those interested in starting small
businesses.
Currently I live in rural southern Wisconsin with my wife and
four-footed children, and work part time as a writer for a small software
company. I`m constantly surprised at what I learn here on SuN and am happy that
I can occasionally provide some ideas of my own.
