Steve Mettee picks up ideas from the world around him. Traveling, reading the paper, browsing in a bookstore—he’s the type to notice what’s there and what’s missing, and think about how the publishing company he founded, Quill Driver Books, can meet needs and fill in gaps. And once he’s latched on to an idea, he’s loathe to let it go. “A publisher requires two things,” he says. “One is passion, and the other is optimism. If you haven’t got passion and optimism, then you shouldn’t be in this industry. When I get passionate about something, I can get behind it. I think about it when I’m driving down the street. It’s almost like I can will it to happen.”
