I've been invited by Charlotte Homeschooling dot com to do a webinar based on my book- I don't know anything yet, other than it will be on March 16th! I approached the local homeschool consignment shop about holding a little class or book signing and was shot down (booooo) because she didn't know me or what I was about. LOL, homeschoolers are cautious to be sure, but ok, whatever. I bought her a book and sent it to her. I'm also trying to get in Rainbow Resources. Homeschoolers will know that catalog, it's one of the really big ones! Beyond that, I'm just enjoying the ride! I don't have the money to do the conference circuit (that's expensive-crap!) so I'll be grass-roots all the way. Thanks again for all the support!

You guys are the first to hear this- but I'm pulling the book on Friday and re-publishing it on Friday. There will be a lag time, maybe 1 week or two, before it appears live again. I just read a print copy, and HOLY COW "needing another round of editing" is an understatement! I found too many errors -I need to feel proud of the content, and I just can't when there are so many little things that drive me insane. I know it will never be "perfect" and that's not my goal- but I can point out a dozen places that made me cringe, so I just have to rework some things. The content won't change, but there are a few places that need improvement, so that's what I'll be doing in my free time this week! I found places that were edited the first time, but then created other errors. (eg. a specific college name was edited out- from ABC Community College to community college, but the editing only pulled "ABC" leaving community college in caps....ughhhh. And, when the CLEP price changed to $80, I found a few places where it remained $77....) Too much for me to ignore.
It will say "out of print" during the Amazon review process (Kindle and print). Even though there are other channels that the book appears available (Barnes and Nobel, etc) it won't be. Even if someone went into B&N to buy it, they would tell the buyer it was on back order.
This is twice. This is embarrassing. Oh well, I'm still doing it lol.
