So yesterday I bit the bullet and wrote a fresh description for the back cover of “Dirty Little Secrets” for Consumers.

My Print Version Description
Call it procrastinating if you will, but I am just now getting around to writing a description for the print version of “Dirty Little Secrets” for Consumers. In my own defense, this is the first day of my release from my wife’s business. Yes, I volunteered and yes, I have had days off previously but…
Down to the Wire…
Thursday. The book launches Thursday. If you’ve been patiently screaming for me to shut up about it, I hear ya. Maybe that was me screaming. I just want it to launch at this point. Again, the point of a pre-order is to give the publisher, in this case, me, time to market the book –…
Where Am I Now? An Update
So… in case I forgot to remind you my first book “Life Insurance “Dirty Little Secrets” for Consumers Revealed!” will be released in just ten days – that’s April 14th for those who abhor math and calendars.

“Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?” The extended version.

My In-house Editors

Going for Number Two!
Naw! Not THAT number two! Geesh! You guys! The number 2 BOOK! 🙂 Okay so I couldn’t help it. Anyway I expect to have the agent version available in a day or so. Most of the heavy lifting is done already. Now all I need to to is rinse and repeat – IF I can…
Publishing Update
In case you were wondering, no, you need not subscribe to my mailing list to get updates. That’s not how I roll. The mailing list is a convenience for you and, yes, a marketing tool for me. Long ago I wrote an article around the old saying, “If you build a better mousetrap the world…
Start Here (First Post)
Actually the title is for me. 🙂 I just want to replace that “hello world” post with something, but as long as I’m here… This is a new site for me but it is far from my first site, though you may not know it to look at it. That’s because I’ve never been much…
