Description
Want to Take Your Presentation Slides to a Whole New Level with PowerPoint?
You may think you know Microsoft PowerPoint, but you don't know jack if you don't how to use advanced animation to bring your boring static slides to life.
Your PowerPoint slides may be information packed but may also lack visual impact if you're not familiar with the use of shapes, word art and smart art.
You're presentations are going to collect dust on your computer if you don't learn how to produce them and share them on the Internet.

Instructor
I was born in the middle of the last century in Los Angeles, California. I graduated from Humboldt State University amid the redwoods of Northern California. After working for Lockheed Missiles and Space for 14 years as an IBM system programmer and Cisco Systems for 12 years as a test engineer, I retired at the age of 48.
I instantly became bored.
Udemy is my response to this boredom.
I began publishing Udemy courses in 2014, focusing on writing, self-publishing and book covers.
1 Writing
My 30-hour course, Writing: Book Writing: Creative Writing Skills: Punctuation, has garnered almost 2,000 reviews while maintaining a 4.5-star rating. There’s no better place to begin your journey as a fledgling writer.
2 Self-publishing
Meanwhile, my 15-hour course, Self-publishing Amazon, Smashwords, Book Cover and Marketing, has become the premiere Amazon self-publishing course.
3 Book Covers
Combine my Amazon self-publishing course with my Book Covers: Free PowerPoint Book Covers for Self-publishing course, and you have the complete recipe for successful self-publishing.
To locate any of these courses, simply copy and paste a title into the search field on Udemy or alternately browse the course catalog that follows.
I currently live in Las Vegas, Nevada, with my lovely wife and author, Melanie Jackson, and Butterscotch the cat.
I'll see you in the classroom,
