Q&A With Dann Alexander, Childfree Man of the Year

International Childfree DayWant to know a bit more about Dann Alexander, the 2014 Childfree Many of the Year? Check out my recent Q&A with him:

What inspired you to write Planned UnParenthood: Creating a Life Without Procreating?

Planned UnParenthood was my first workable book idea. For so long I had wanted to write a book. Many ideas just did not seem to fit what I wanted to achieve at the time. It was at a busy family gathering that I realized perhaps something written from a male perspective about not having children would be really great. I started the outline notes the very next day and spent over a year writing and revising it. I was long into working on the revisions when I realized that my book would be the first about living childfree written from the male perspective.

What are childfree guys saying about your book?

Childfree men and childfree people who have read the book are saying “thank you.” They say I am saying what they want to say. It’s giving a voice to the cause.

What is your next writing project?

My next writing project is determining my next writing project! Seriously, there is always something on the go. I am actively pursuing new opportunities in the freelance business. I enjoy every aspect of it and the constant amount of learning that is involved with it. I have another book out which is a collection of short satirical fiction called Throwing Dice.  It was a great writing outlet for humour while I was editing Planned UnParenthood.  There is also a novel script on my desktop and I hope to finish it one day, as it is an interesting story that will appeal to many people. So there is lots of content creation going on.

What kind of freelance work do you do? In my freelance business, I have written and edited content for various client websites on a variety of topics. I had the pleasure of writing material for a stand-up comedian and motivational speaker, which was a great experience. I would do that again! Working with clients who want good content, or who need someone to revise and edit something is enjoyable. The word business is wonderful.

Thank you, Dann! You can find him at http://dannalexander.wordpress.com/ Twitter @WriterDann
