Who's Minding the Store? - Now available on amazon.com!

I'm proud to announce my 2nd published book is now available on amazon.com. It was released this Veteran's Day, and I could not have received a better gift from my editor.


My book is a comedy about life in a retail home improvement store. It's something I believe all of us can relate to because we've all had a retail job at some point in our lives. It really makes you wonder why anyone would think 'the customer is always right!'


Happy reading!

Writing tips

In the November 4 issue of the New York Times is this article by a former political speechwriter that I'm passing on to everyone. Though the subject is his experience as a speechwriter, there are many aspects of his writing life that have broad application to the field. The link is:

New Fund Raising Helping People Save Money on their Cell Phones and More

A few months ago a good friend and Nationally recognized Fund Raising Expert sent me an email suggesting that I watch a short video. After I watched it I realized that I had found a way that I could save money on my monthly cell phone bill. With me being on a fixed income this was great to see.

I also found out that Solvaei Pays Customers when we Share their service with others.

This is a very unique company and many Veterans are already involved.

Selling it slowly: When a book tour might not be in the cards

I just read Benjamin Busch’s article in the Authors Guild Bulletin. The author of Dust to Dust (which I have on my reading list) talked about how he hit the road to promote his book. He’s right, authors are an integral part of the sales force and he’s right that connecting with readers in person is important.
