\"taxhelp\"<\/a>I’m N.S. Smith, a published author and a registered tax preparer in the state of California.<\/p>\n

As an author I know what a hassle doing taxes can be, from knowing what you can write off–and what you can’t or shouldn’t–to understanding whether or not I need to pay estimated taxes or not and how the heck am I supposed to fill in that form? I’ve struggled through every one of these questions for myself at\u00a0 one point or another.<\/p>\n

As a tax preparer, I know the answers to these questions or how to find out. I can walk you through the forms you need and help you determine which forms you’ll need to file and how to fill those forms out.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I’ll be doing weekly posts here, but I also offer a Tax Tips for Authors course with lectures and plenty of Q&A in the group as well as privately if you don’t want the others to know your business.<\/p>\n

And I’m writing an upcoming book incorporating everything, plus a lot more. Stay tuned for updates about that.<\/p>\n

Feel free to ask questions in the comments, subscribe to this blog and consider signing up for one of my very reasonably priced courses.<\/p>\n
