Author John Wasik of Grayslake looks at writing in different ways.

"Writing a column is like a sprint, you do it in a specific period of time," he said. "But writing a book is like a marathon with writing, editing and promotion."

With more than a dozen published books, WasikAEs marathon has focused on a variety of consumer and economic issues, including his latest releases: "The Audacity of Help," about President ObamaAEs economic plan and the remaking of America, and "The Cul-De-Sac Syndrome," about the sustainability of neighborhoods during the real estate downturn.
