Good Authoring Day to YOU   

Loved finished the March Amazon Bestseller workshop out on Wednesday … now to see my participants complete their strategies and rollouts to reach #1. Claudia West and her delightful book Zoo on the Sea will pop up later this month. Today is the final day to get the excellent read as a freebie eBook for The Shroud Solution.

Looking forward to a terrific insightful program from intellectual attorney Julie Bernard today for the AuthorYOU community. The latest updates on trademarks, copyrights, and much more.

And … I’m putting my let my “sunshine toe on the deck” later this Saturday afternoon as I start the great winter uncover, get the rugs down, furniture out, my favorite iced tea, and a book out. Per the weather birds—it’s clear for at least two weeks … and I’m going to be thinking: no more snow in my neck of the woods.

My two bits for the first Saturday morning of the new month. Easter is tomorrow. Enjoy the day. How about you?
