We are go for launch!

CD Programs has given me the green light for establishing the charity, clearing one of the major hurdles for my project!

I continue to meet some really great people as I investigate all the nooks and crannies that go along with developing a book - a book publicist is now on that list.  With the charitable question answered, I can now focus on the final steps in the book - editing the rough draft, working on layout, selecting a publisher and developing a marketing plan.

Funny story from yesterday.  My daughter Miranda used this project as a topic for a homework assignment.  She shared the assignment with the class yesterday, and eight kids raised their hands wanting to buy the book (14 kids in the class).  I take two things from this - kids really like allowance (I can't imagine why else they would be interested in all of this unless they are much more aware of these things than I give them credit for, which may be the case!) and Miranda may have a future in sales!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!
