Taxes with Diane Kelly

Authorpreneurs Unleashed

Taxes may not be the most glamorous part of being an authorpreneur, but they are an essential part of running and building your business.

Because we don’t know what we don’t know, Kathryn invited Diane Kelly to give us an overview of what we need to consider when it comes time for taxes. Not only does Diane have extensive experience as a tax attorney for both private companies and the government, but she’s a hybrid author of over 40 titles!

About Our Guest:

Diane Kelly is a fan of furry, four-footed creatures and creatively concocted whodunnits, and combines the two interests in her mystery series. Diane has published over forty novels and novellas, including the Death & Taxes white-collar crime series, the Paw Enforcement K-9 series, the House Flipper cozy mystery series, the Busted female motorcycle cop series, the Southern Homebrew moonshine series, and the Mountain Lodge Mysteries.
