My Grandfather, the Author

My grandfather, who died before I was born, was an author. I didn't know this until yesterday. Not only that, he marketed his book himself, and wrote some pretty awesome direct mail copy to sell it. (You can see some of it in a brochure he wrote in the photo above.) If he were alive […]

Your Book Is Your Business Card

When I wrote my post last week on Why You Need a Book, I gave a somewhat sketchy list of reasons (hey, I was low on time!) and promised to write more about each one if there was enough interest. And, it turns out, there was. So herewith are more information on the first three […]

(For those of you who don't subscribe to the newsletter, there's a spiffy little box on the upper right-hand corner of this page.) I based it on the new free report […]

A Very Glittery Book Review

What’s Your Favorite Book?

I have a reason for asking the question in the title. I've been going on and on about how I'm re-organizing my office, down to sorting through the oldest papers. And the work continued this weekend. I'm down to a box of old CDs to sort, which I'm not entirely sure what to do with, […]

Books Intution

Book Review: Second Sight

Second Sight by Judith Orloff Three Rivers Press, 1996, 2010 I was offered the chance to review Second Sight and leapt at the chance because of the subject matter- intuition. I'm always curious about intuition and looking for new ways to access it. Reading this book got me jazzed about working with dreams and re-charged […]

Transparency, or a Book Review

Book Review: Write Right Online by Andy Hayes Transparency is a big buzz word around the internet these days.Everyone is supposed to be transparent and tell their audience every single little thing about them.

Review: The Future That Brought Her Here

The Future That Brought Her Here by Deborah Denicola Before we get started, I want to make one thing perfectly clear, just in case the FTC happens to be reading my blog (stranger things have happened, but not many). I have an ulterior motive in writing this review: I got a free book to do […]

Bookcases, Bookcases, the Joys of Bookcases

The thing about bookcases is that you always need more of them. At least I do, because the stream of books in my life is never ending. Books are like rabbits and ideas, they reproduce themselves automatically. One minute you have plenty of room in your bookcases for more books and then suddenly there are […]
