My plate is full as we sail into 2012. I am writing a new book for Allworth Press on a tight deadline. I got word yesterday that my latest book is finished. I\u2019ll receive author copies within the next few weeks. It is so new that Amazon isn\u2019t even up to speed with it, yet. That should occur momentarily. As it is, they are still listing it as having pre-order status.<\/p>\n
The new book is a revision of The Right Way to Write, Publish and Sell Your Book.<\/em> It\u2019s now called Publish Your Book, Proven Strategies and Resources for the Enterprising Author<\/em>. Take a look at it at Amazon. You\u2019ll find it by putting my name in the search prompt. I\u2019ll provide additional information once we get it up on my website and Amazon opens it up for sale. As I understand it, it will be on Kindle, too.<\/p>\n This morning, I received an invitation to submit a proposal to do a workshop up in Oregon later in the year. Got that off to the organizer this morning. Also responded to a couple of email questions, wrote a note of condolence to a friend who lost a beloved cat yesterday and charged a credit card paying for one of my online courses. It is just 6:30 a.m. The day hasn\u2019t begun for many of you. <\/p>\n I\u2019ve developed the habit of rising early so I can get some of the tasks that commonly show up practically daily off of the cluttered desk and clear the way to the major project of the day. For the next sixty (or however many it takes me) it will be continuing to interview for and write my latest book.<\/p>\n Opportunity For You<\/strong> Contact me with your story and you may get a slot in my latest book on how personality sells books.

\nHey, here\u2019s an opportunity for you. Would you like to be a part of this book? Can you share something about your experiences promoting your books using communication, personality, public speaking (including book signings, book festivals, live or Internet presentations, etc.)? I\u2019m seeking anecdotes and advice focusing on promoting books through some form of communication. Have you signed books at a unique venue, had an interesting experience while selling books at a book festival, experienced uncommon success pitching your book to someone, had an unexpected opportunity materialize as a result of one of your speaking gigs? Have you negotiated for free passage on a cruise ship in exchange for presenting a workshop on the theme of your book? Have you sold books while hiking in the Alps, traveling cross country by Vespa or???<\/p>\n
