We had a wonderful day with Daddy! ALL DAY TOO! We let Paul choose what he would like to do with us today. He had his pick of: the beach, the Children's Museum, the Gold Museum, or a trip to a volcano. He chose the beach!
|The Kids LOVED the idea! (E & K swimming to their hearts content!)
|I loved it too! Since I got the chance to actually swim with the bigger kids once Paul had his turn in the ocean. But Paul had his own fun with the little kids.
|He helped the little ones build this AWESOME castle. They LOVED every minute of it!
|Paul also enjoyed taking some fun pictures of G, doing what G does best.
|Being a boy!
|After a bit of prodding, L got the hang of playing in the ocean. Poor kid. She has been terrified of the water, ever since L and Paul's accident a few Saturdays ago.
|But with Paul's help and a lot of patience, we got her finding seashells and bringing them to me in the water. Got to love distractions!
After some more swimming in the beautiful Costa Rican Pacific Ocean, we showered, got dressed and headed home, to beat the nasty traffic. But Paul decided to make a day of it and took us to the mall. The kids had fun at this GIGANTIC mall. They played, ate a yummy dinner and had their choice of ice cream for dessert. We got home and EVERYONE was exhausted. That is why I couldn't post last night, I was the most exhausted of them all.
|But I have to say, the exhaustion was worth it!
Love from Costa Rica ~ Wendi, Paul and the kids

"We have just received a few espadrilles!...and as I know how much you wanted a pair..."
My sister lives in Monaco...and as leaving the office for shopping is not high on her daily to do list...she decided to call her "local Chanel"....on the off chance.
"Bonjour!"...my sister.
"Oui, bonjour"... sales assistant.
" Can you put me through to the shoe department please..."
"And may I ask why?"....sales assistant with high "snoot factor" .
" Well....(sister taking a relaxing breath...) I was told that Chanel in Cannes has just received some espadrilles and as I am not in the position to drive all the way there and back....(another deep, cleansing breath)...I was wondering whether you may have received a shipment too...?"
"Oh! I can't possibly discuss this with you over the phone, Madame....as you can well imagine, these are extremely popular and would require for you to come to the shop to find out in person."
My sister in her head: "...Oh pardon me! I had no idea that this is such sensitive material....!!! Are we being bugged by the Fashion Police?"
Or: ..." Good Lord, please excuse me...I didn't realise that I've just dialled the Oval Office...."
Lesson du jour :
Shop in Chanel, Cannes :there are some good, decent people there, some of whom I happen to know well.
If you are up for the challenge, need to get rid of some frustration and can do with a dose of verbal sparring: Chanel, Monaco it is...Go show them who's boss!

Kids love it. Teenagers love it. Adults love it. Even your dog loves it. Ever wondered why traveling is loved by people from all walks of life. Let me tell you why! Traveling enlivens your withering senses; it makes you feel light and brings harmony to your mind, body & soul. But, but, but….there are things always ready to add sourness to your travel experience. And no traveler wishes those things to happen to him/her. What are those things?
Here is the list of six:
Image Source: https://goo.gl/aqVQlX
You hate it. You hate it. Even I hate it. Well, everyone hates it. And you hate it, even more, to spend those odd hours sitting on your luggage and staring at those strange faces.
Image Source: https://goo.gl/Y8EUUC
No. Don't take me wrong. Rain is nice. Listening to that melodious pitter-patter while enjoying tea with snacks. It really cheers you up. But now you are traveling…traveling to that famous fortress you wanted to visit since you read about it last year. And guess what? Ok, don't guess. Obviously it's going to rain. What else would I say? So, it is raining and you run to that shelter. You should wait, you are waiting and you have been waiting for long. Rain is stopped. But it's 8 PM. Fortress is closed. Go back to your room and sleep.
Image Source: https://goo.gl/WA0BXI
Oh no. Not now! Gosh, where do I find a washroom now? Why such things happen with me? This is how troubled stomach makes most of you react. Anyway, you still have to find a washroom. Run! No…running could be dangerous. Walk. Walk slowly.
Image Source: https://goo.gl/E0vW4X
So, while hiking that trail flanked by plants & trees, you suddenly come to know that you are not on a right path. You turn back, but it is all tangled. You look left, right, forward, backward. You are screwed. You are so screwed. Now go back and find the right path; don't just stand here. Huh!
Image Source: https://goo.gl/7bKaXg
Wait, wait, wait. So you have lost your wallet now. When will you grow up bud? And how you are going to reach your hotel? Did you just say lift? Ok go…go ask for the lift with that thumb. You will look pretty nice doing it.
Image Source: https://goo.gl/L9XXrW
So, you are really enjoying driving on that long, empty road to your favorite weekend getaway. And this is what you wanted for long. Some time alone to shoo away the stress. "It's going to be a smooth ride", you say to yourself. And all of a sudden you hear the scream of your rear tyre. You know what it is! You know what it is! You need a mechanic, means you are stuck there for at least 4 hours. Smooth ride you said! Anyway, take some help from this little guy.

I am searching for any info/descendants on William "Will" and Mary Francis (WHITE) ROBINSON. I have no information on Will, but Mary Francis WHITE, was the d/o Elijah and Deborah (BABBITT) WHITE. Mary Francis, born, April 05, 1836, Black Brook, (AuSable Forks) Clinton County, New York. According to "The Babbitt Family History," by William Bradford Browne, Mary Francis resided in Rantoul, Illinois, years not known. We know she and her husband, was in Holdredge, Phelps County, NE in 1909, as her niece, Mary Ellen JACKSON and Edgar Clarence STEVENS were married at the ROBINSON Farm, on June 9, 1909. Mary Francis died, Sept. 01, 1915 and on her death certificate, it says she was a widow, so "Will" preceeded her in death. Mary Francis's brother Charles P. WHITE, also lived in Phelps County, in the town of Hayden, NE. I believe it is him in the 1890-91 Wolfe's Gazetteer Farmer's Directory of Phelps County, Nebraska, as there is a C.P. WHITE, of Hayden, listed. Any information on William & Mary (WHITE) ROBINSON or C.P. WHITE, (Charles P.) would be appreciated. My mother visited the farm, with her father in 1926 and there were relatives there, possibly Mary and Will's adult children.Thank you

SMITH - 26 Oct 2000
I have a photograph taken by a Mrs.. Wyatt, of Holdrege, NE. On it is written Mary Eva Smith. I believe this may be the daughter if Edith and John Smith, married in 1883, Ravenswood, WV. Edith was the daughter of James and Araminta Smith, of Monroe Co, OHIO, and sister of Eva Smith Nye and Alice Smith Bullard.
I found a listing in the 1890-91 Gazetteer Farmer's Directory for a John SMITH of Holdrege, and wonder if this may be "my" John and Edith. John was listed in his father, Judge Joseph Smith, of Revenswood WV's obit. as an attorney and farmer.
Is anyone familiar with John or Edith SMITH, Mary Eva SMITH, or Mrs..Wyatt, the Holdrege photographer?

LOREN - 4 Mar 2001
I have pictures of my great grandfather, Samuel Loren, his two oldest daughters, and others in front of a sod school house in Nebraska, early 1900, when the family were there homesteading. There seems to be conflict as to where they lived. Some of the family say Hastings, NE and others
say Holdrege, NE. My great grandfather, William Isaac, was born in Sept 18,1889, during the time they were homesteading there. His two older sisters are in this picture. I also have a family picture in front of another sod structure. My father thinks that maybe Hastings was the place that
the family went to Nebraska and then went on to Holdrege. I would love to have some help on this. The family later returned to Illinois. Loren had a cousin, Isaac Barber, that went with him but he was not married at that time.
Does anyone know if there are any sod school houses still in tact? There was a relative since deceased that was supposed to have went to this school probably in the last 10-15 years.
Thank you

I am looking for information regarding Samuel P. Moser and Rebecca Alice Moser (Maiden name Polly/Palem/Paley). They were my ggg grandparents. They moved to Phelps Co., NE in 1873 with their children and homesteaded there. I have not been able to locate their place of birth, death or burial, even though I have made numerous attempts to do so. Nor do I know who their parents were. They were both born somewhere in Pennsylvania between 1817-1819. Their children were George W. Moser, Sara (Moser) Dale, Catherine Ann "Katie" (Moser) Foster, Jacob Jake Moser, Cordelia (Moser) Whitney, Josephine (Moser) Steward, and Nancy Moser. Samuel and Rebecca were found in the 1860 Darke Co., OH census, the 1870 Warren Co., IA census, and the 1880 Phelps Co., NE census. Samuel was then found in the Doniphan Co., KS 1895 census without Rebecca and then was not found in either census for 1900. Since much of their family remained in Phelps Co., I would presume that they may be buried somewhere in Phelps Co. I would appreciate any help anyone can offer.

I do know that his parents names were Elmer Valentine Hjelmfelt & Roberta May Talbert. My grandfather was born October 26, 1913 at 915 Sherman St. Holdrege, Phelps Co., Nebraska. He married Ivas Corrine Bergstrom (I don't know location) they lived and died in Houston, TX. If anyone has any information please contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com , and please put Hjelmfelt/Talbert in the subject line. Thank you, Deborah Stoughton
CLARK photo studio, MYERS, SMITH, SUTHERLAND - 18 Sep 2001
I have a portrait of an ancestor, Laura Belle MYERS, aka Belle MYERS, aka Dolly MYERS, aka Dolly SUTHERLAND (her stage name) who was married for a short time to Judson Adonorum SMITH (actor and circus performer). The portrait is probably from the 1880s and was done by C.E. CLARK of Holdrege. Does anyone have any knowledge of these two people or their performances? Does anyone know what years this photography studio operated? The photo appears to possibly be a promotional photo, as Belle was dressed in what appears to be an Elizabethan gown (stage costume?) rather than one of her regular gowns. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Linda Harris. - email@example.com

Helping Spark Children's Inspiration
Research shows that reading for pleasure promotes imagination, creativity, relaxation, improved self-esteem, intellectual pleasure, enhanced general knowledge, emotional intelligence and mental health benefits. In addition, reading for pleasure has been found to enhance social interaction and personal relationships; empower children to become active citizens, to improve a sense of connectedness with the wider community and to further tolerance and understanding of other cultures.
The connection between reading and play-based learning is perhaps less obvious. Indeed, some find it hard to imagine that play is one of the most important methods of learning for young children. We know, however, that through play, children learn to make sense of the world around them. Rich experiences of play provide ever-expanding opportunities for children to think critically, develop problem-solving skills and express thoughts and feelings. But did you know that play is also important in the development of language and literacy skills that will help children as they learn to read?
Making the Connection
When we provide stimulating books that children explore independently (with limited or no adult intervention), play-based learning experiences can be enhanced. Thought-provoking books can help guide and support a child's wonder. Examples include illustrated cookbooks for "kitchen play", picture books for "home play" and visually-appealing nonfiction and fiction books that build on a child's natural curiosities.
Ready to spark your child's life-long love affair with books?
Take the first step: Provide a world of wonder for your child in your home. Surrounding your child with provocations that inspire them to wonder (and later explore, create and connect), is the first step to setting them on a path of natural and engaged learning.
Need to find more books to support your child's interests? Libraries open up new worlds, spark imagination, encourage reading, help develop critical thinking and prepare and support children in school and life. Parent groups are another great way to share resources and find opportunities for engaging literacy-supporting activities.
Need more ideas or support? Be sure to follow our social media accounts for future articles or contact us at email@example.com at any time to get more great ideas.

Halifax Regional Police are warning the public that a sexual offender will be released from prison on Monday.
John Patrick Neve, 47, has a criminal history of violent sexual offences against intimate partners and children.
Neve has been professionally assessed as a "high risk to reoffend in a sexual manner," according to a police news release.
Police said Neve has been placed on a number of strict conditions with regards to his interaction with women and children under the age of 16.
Neve is described as a white man, five feet 11 inches tall, 186 pounds, with brown hair and hazel eyes.
Neve was sentenced in December 2008 on several charges including two counts of sexual assault and assault. He received a total of 46 months in prison. He was also put on the national sex offender registry, was required to give a DNA sample and is banned from having weapons until 2107.
"This information is provided to alert members of the public of his release into the community," the police news release stated. "Any form of vigilante activity or other unreasonable conduct will not be tolerated."

Silicon Valley's Computer History Museum got a dash of star power Tuesday when it welcomed the "Jeopardy" champion of champions, IBM's Watson.
Somewhere you've got to figure Ken Jennings is getting sweaty palms.
In a move that says computing can be fun — even when you're having your behind handed to you by a box of circuits — the Mountain View museum showed off a new exhibit featuring the original "Jeopardy" set used in 2011 when Watson took on champions Jennings and Brad Rutter in a battle of man vs. machine.
Machine won. By a lot.
"Please take care of our child," John Kelly III, IBM's director of research, told museum CEO John Hollar at an opening ceremony that was marred only by the absence of Alex Trebek. (On second thought maybe we were better off.)
The two men stood behind the familiar Jeopardy podiums, complete with buzzers, across from an interactive display that will allow museum goers to play Watson in a simulated "Jeopardy" game. (If you're wondering, I did. It did not go well.)
Here's a trip down memory lane with Watson on "Jeopardy."
"I think it was brilliant strategy by IBM … to have a computer play on 'Jeopardy'," Hollar said. And it was fairly brilliant strategy for the museum to land the exhibit.
The display is meant to entertain, sure, but the big idea is to bring attention and something tangible to the idea of cognitive computing, the notion that computers can learn.
After the brief ceremony, IBM's Kelly said that humans are just at the very beginning of a new era of computing. Think of Watson, he said, as analogous to the 360 computer that IBM introduced in the mid-1960s — a mind-boggling machine at the time that was really a first step. (And also a machine that is a few dozen steps away from the Watson set at the computer museum.)
"There are going to be 50 years of cognitive systems that build upon its base," Kelly said of the computer he introduced on "Jeopardy" in 2011.
"Jeopardy" seemed the perfect test, Kelly said, for the team developing Watson. It was a tough problem — teaching a computer natural language. The computer's game performance would be a clear, measurable indicator of whether or not the machine was getting smarter.
"It provided a target for us," Kelly said of seeking world domination on "Jeopardy." "In and of itself, it was a scientific data set. And we also thought it was important to capture the imagination of the world."
That it did. There is no better way to become famous in America, of course, than to appear on T.V.; and Watson became a household name. The appearance allowed viewers to develop warm and fuzzy feeling about a cold piece of technology.
This week, however, has been a bit of a roller coaster ride for IBM's pop icon. Sure, there were the cheers at the museum on Tuesday. But on Saturday, the New York Times, citing an unnamed consultant, reported that the National Security Agency and the CIA have been testing Watson in the last two years in connection with massive data-gathering initiatives like PRISM.
"We don't talk about any of our customers" Kelly said politely. "And obviously, we obey all laws."
But back to Watson as a "Jeopardy" champ. Kelly remembers the machine's game show debut well.
"These are the original stage sets," he said, strolling through the exhibit. "I remember it like it was yesterday."
Was he nervous?
"I said, 'It's not a matter of if a system like this is going to beat human beings. It's a matter of when.'"
He wasn't sure it was going to be that night, but it turns out he needn't have worried. In fact, Watson hasn't lost a step. Just ask Hollar, who took on the machine at the museum.
"I got one question right," he said. "Watson knows a lot about baseball and a lot about the weather."
Oh, the question? In the category "Chief Justices," the question (or answer in "Jeopardy" speak) was about a chief justice who chaired a special committee and ended up calling more than 500 witnesses.
Watson's response (and yes, it was in the form of a question): What was the Warren Commission?
The right answer: "Who was Earl Warren?"
Don't say SiliconBeat doesn't teach you anything.

When it comes to compact excavators, you'll find that the majority of key specifications relate to the machine's size, power or performance. Depending on the manufacturer, you'll find a range of sizes, engine horsepower ratings, dig depths, dump heights and arm and bucket breakout forces. Here, we'll break down a spec sheet to help you find the best compact excavator to fit your needs.
In order to get the most out of your compact excavator, you have to make sure it can access your jobsites and then have the capability to do the work once it's there.
First, you'll want to look at the dimensions of the compact excavator, meaning its width, height and weight. The size of machine you need should be determined by the application, environment and tasks you anticipate.
But height, width and weight are only part of the equation. Tail swing configuration is another feature to assess before committing to a machine. Zero tail swing and minimal tail swing allow more unrestricted rotation when working close to structures or against a wall. If you anticipate routine work where you or your operators must pass through narrow property lines or gates, a conventional tail swing may be a better fit.
Bobcat also offers a retractable undercarriage in select models when you need a machine that won't sacrifice over-the-side lift capacity for accessibility through tight entryways like fence gates.
The weight of your machine is also important when it comes to transporting to and from jobsites. Double-check the weight limits of any vehicle you plan to use, and think about how you plan to haul your excavator before selecting a machine size.
This specification is defined by the maximum depth that the excavator is able to dig on flat, level ground. It is important to realize that an excavator is only capable of reaching its maximum dig depth for a small portion of the machine's workgroup path. Therefore, you may want to select a machine that has 20 percent more dig depth than your routine requirements. By doing this, you will significantly minimize machine repositioning and enhance productivity.
An excavator's reach is measured from its center rotational axis to the tip of the standard bucket tooth at ground level. This is an important specification, especially if you'll be digging trenches, because greater reach means less repositioning and more productivity. If you want more reach and dig depth, you might want to consider excavator models with long-arm and extendable-arm options.
The clearance that your compact excavator will need to dump the material from its bucket is called dump height. It's an important selection, especially if your excavator will be frequently used for loading trucks. Dig depth, reach and dump height are all affected by the excavator's arm options — standard arm, long arm or extendible arm.
Standard arm configurations come with every excavator model, giving you maximum breakout force and lifting ability with greater digging performance. However, if you need greater reach and dig depth, equip your excavator with a long-arm option. Extra reach, combined with higher dump height allows you to do more work without repositioning the machine and helps load trucks easier. The long-arm option includes additional counterweight to enhance your excavator's lifting capabilities.
If you need even more reach, some manufacturers offer a clamp-ready extendable arm option for select compact excavators. It offers the best of both worlds: power and lifting performance, combined with the ability to extend the machine's dig depth and reach when you need it.
The reason you wouldn't purchase a truck with the smallest-horsepower engine is the same reason you should demand more horsepower in a compact excavator. By having more engine horsepower, your excavator is able to generate more hydraulic horsepower when it counts — under tough digging conditions. When looking at horsepower specs, make sure you compare apples to apples, as some manufacturers publish net horsepower, while others publish gross horsepower. Also consider the availability of a turbocharged engine if working at higher altitudes, as they sustain usable horsepower better than a naturally aspirated engine.
Two of the more commonly published and compared compact excavator specifications that you may be familiar with are arm breakout force and bucket breakout force.
Arm breakout force is the excavator's ability to produce a "pulling force" using the arm hydraulic circuit. You might also have heard this referred to as arm, dipper and crowd force.
Bucket breakout force is the excavator's ability to produce a "prying force" using the bucket hydraulic circuit.
It's also important to note that published arm and bucket forces are theoretical (i.e., they are calculated by each individual manufacturer).
So what are cycle times? It's the amount of time, measured in seconds, that a particular function takes to be cycled (i.e., boom up).
Remember, faster cycle times mean you'll be getting the most productivity out of your compact excavator — whether you're digging, trenching, grading or grappling. Some excavators provide multifunctioning hydraulics that enable you to use up to four functions at the same time (e.g., curl bucket, raise boom, extend arm and slew). You would typically use all of these functions when digging a hole or loading a truck.
As mentioned above, if your excavator has more engine horsepower, it's going to provide more flow at higher pressures — which translates into faster cycle times under load.
Auxiliary hydraulics is a dedicated source of hydraulic oil intended to provide oil flow for specific attachments. An excavator's auxiliary hydraulic flow rates and pressures are a key determinant of its attachment capacity and capability.
Because excavators are frequently used for lifting objects on jobsites, you need to know the working limitations of the machine. The rated lift capacity often dictates what attachments are approved for the machine. It is important that an excavator's rated lift capacity be adequate to handle the attachments you intend to use.
All Bobcat excavators are equipped with a rated lift capacity decal, illustrating three general lifting positions:
● Boom over the blade, with the blade down
● Boom over the blade, with the blade up
● Boom over the side, with the blade up
In addition to these lifting positions, you should also be aware of the anticipated lift point radius and lift point height. The lift point radius is measured horizontally from the excavator's center swivel point to the bucket pivot pin. The lift point height is measured vertically from ground level to the excavator's bucket pivot pin.
Now that you're armed with the knowledge to interpret a spec sheet, you'll still want to do one very important thing before making the decision to buy — demo your top choices. The best way to choose from a long list of compact excavator options is to get in the operator's seat. Operating a machine in common applications like loading trucks or trenching can help you get a feel for how it performs. This can help you make the final call on what machine is right for you.
Get started and browse our full line of compact excavators or contact your Bobcat dealer to request a demo.

Thank God Conan O'Brien's so cool and music savvy. Otherwise we don't think Jack White would have ever agreed to bring "I'm Shakin'" to late night television.
The recent Grammy nominee called up his all-female backing band, The Peacocks, told them to put on their Sunday best and met them in front of the blue-lit background for a killer performance of the Blunderbuss hit. (It's the first time he's performed the song on TV, BTW.) Real quick: Is Conan O'Brien seriously taller than Jack White? Those might be the two longest pairs of pants on earth.

Have you ever wondered about learning? How different people learn different ways? I recall, long (long) ago, when I was learning to ski, my boyfriend took me onto the snowy slopes and said, "Do this." I couldn't. It seemed I needed to learn differently. I wanted to know how my shins felt against the front of the boots, where my hands were supposed to be, what to do with my poles, and how to bend my knees. He couldn't tech that way. We all learn differently.
Unless, of course, you're a writer. I believe writers are made in the womb, rolling gently in fluid and imagining what comes next. Learning came to us when we first opened our eyes, first screamed our distaste for the harsh, cold world, first felt warmth, heard voices, dreamed. Writers start early, long before we learned to walk we learned to see what we want, how we want, and create a reality around everything we didn't understand.
As toddlers, we learned to tell stories, well, okay, we learned to lie. The word "no" was essential to this process. We didn't do it. We didn't need to go to the potty. We didn't want to eat those green mushy peas. A few years later, the lies became more elaborate. The dog broke the pretty figurine. The chocolate fell out of the drawer. Our sister ate the donuts. Our little brother smeared paint on the wall. Lying became a way of life, especially in the fifth grade when teacher requested that we write a story. Wow, suddenly this lying thing was a good thing, and if the fire caught, we wrote, and wrote, and are still writing.
The imagination is our playground. While other people balance their checkbooks and make grocery lists, we stroll the produce aisle and create a complete background story for the old woman wearing a royal purple coat and sniffing tomatoes. It just happens. We don't mean to do it, but the lies keep building until Louise Schoonhoven, tomato lover and descendant of disgraced 15th century Dutch royalty, ends up accused of murder in your next book entitled Planting Tulips.
The general definition of lying is not telling the truth. But for writers, it isn't about being false or dishonest. It's just how we were born. It's how we learn to be better and better at our craft, telling untrue stories, in other words, writing fiction.
This is learned behavior. Merriam-Webster defines learning as 1) the act or experience of one that learns. 2) knowledge or skill acquired by instruction or study. And 3) modification of a behavioral tendency by experience (such as exposure to conditioning.) Wow, that's a mouthful and most of it irritates us creative types. We don't want to be reconditioned, we like ourselves just as we are. We don't mind acquiring skills, but sometimes the training doesn't stick. Does this mean easy learning is not in the cards for creative minds like ours?
Studies show that people need several levels if stimulus to actually learn anything. It all begins with desire. Do you want to learn what's being taught? If so, you're way ahead of the curve. In addition to desire for effective absorption of information, we need to hear, to see, and to interact with that information.
Look, we all take workshops all the time. Writing workshops, character development classes, plot development clinics, dialog improvement lessons, you name it, we've taken it. If it's an online read-and-post-lesson workshop, it has a good chance of getting into our heads. But when trying to learn complicated things, we need a bit more … especially when looking into topics like MARKETING, PROMOTIONS, and PUBLICITY. We need to overcome the aversion to the subject, and learn quickly in order to see real sales results for those fabulous books we write.
I've been teaching workshops for over a decade, all those nasty topics we hate — marketing, promotions, and publicity. I've seen that retention of the techniques work best with as much interactions a possible, preferably when I'm speaking live. But how can we learn the hard stuff when the teacher can't be standing right in front of us?
Easy. Seek out workshops that teach the way we learn. Workshops that take topics we fear and present them clearly and with audio, visual, and interactive elements that make it easier to remember. Below I've posted a workshop series I'm teaching at one of these powerful online locations, Short & Helpful Writers Workshops. I'm so excited to be part of this, seeing how they do it, knowing that more students would get what they need from my classes.
In the meantime, keep learning! Keep lying! Keep telling stories that move the readers! I'm here to help you create awareness and sales for those books.
Master AUTHOR MARKETING, presented the way we learn best … audio, visual, interactive! AUTHOR MARKETING FOR SUCCESS, 6 lessons, a year of coaching. Feb/March/April and Sept/Oct/Nov 2018. Online. Easy. Effective!
