I’m a HUGE fan of nurses and this past week, I donated 600 copies of my various health care books to two local hospitals to give to their nurses.
Looking forward to the Sizzling Video workshop this afternoon. My goal—a new one for my new book on speaking.
And definitely looking forward to the webinar on Thursday, the 17th with Kimberley Grabas. It’s all about Author Tool Kits and Platforms—make sure you signup to get the replay (and attend live).
