More About the Author

I began my writing career in the form of love letters to a young woman I was smitten with. I was probably 14 years old. In high school, being fairly opinionated I edited the school newspaper and wrote the editorials. I wrote about everything from world politics to the lunch service and I deliberately copied William F. Buckley in style and his overuse of esoteric words.

Finding myself married with a baby and no job, I met a man on the tennis court who became my literary agent. 90 days later I was the author of "The Quick and Easy Guide to Lotus 123" and got a check for 5K in royalties 6 months later. I had found my life's calling, or so I thought. It was never again that easy.

I subsequently wrote the first ACT! book, the first Dummies book on Crystal Reports and have kept writing tracts that explain the complex subject of software to the hoi pollio.

My most recent book is Marketing Me Book: The Complete Plan to keeping your job in any economy.

My interest in politics has never waned and my next book will be on the American empire.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quick and Simple - Wolf Makes ACT! 2000 a useful tool, November 27, 2000

After wading through other software tomes, I found Wolf's writing easy to follow and direct. No fuzzy logic or tangents. I have used ACT! for a few versions and found the upgrades in 2000 to be fantastic, especially with the screen shots and the step-by-step guides Wolf includes. His anecdotes are particulary helpful, real-life examples. Don't waste your time with any other ACT! guide.
