Highlights from our interview
Tony is an English major. His expertise is in writing and helping people tell their story. He’s more of a writing expert than than a residency expert. Tony helps pharmacy students one-on-one write a Letter of Intent. The goal is to find a pharmacist residency that’s a good fit. According to Tony, it’s very hard for pharmacists to talk about themselves and to do a “humble brag."
The audience for this 8-part books series is pharmacy students, namely P2’s for 3-year programs and P3’s for 4-year programs. Students, read these books as you start those years of school!
Tony loves audiobooks, and he understands the need for them for his readers. However, depending on the length of the book, Tony sometimes hires narrators instead of narrating the books himself. Tune in to hear his advice for pharmacist authors who want to narrate their own audiobooks.
