I am having a huge signing event at the Oregon State Fair in Salem, Oregon-U.S.A.  this year. It runs from August 24th-September 3rd. I will be there for 10 straight days signing books from 10:00am to 9:00pm.

Longs days, but fun, as I will meet hundreds of people and maybe even sell some books.

If you live anywhere near Salem, please drop by and say hi to me. I would love to meet you.

Some thoughts just for you…

I have found, through my own experience, that not all days are fun and glorious. We all have some days where the dark clouds hang around and darken our lives.  

It isn’t easy when those days come. We fret and worry about tomorrow. We fight depression, and anxiety. We go into our shell of self-pity.

However, through my own experince I have also learned that I am never alone. I never can say that no body cares. I always have my heavenly Father who is watching out for me.

If you are battling any of these afflictions, cling to the hope of God. He is just a prayer away. He is much bigger than any walls you will face.

He will not always stop the storms, but He will help calm them.

Remember:

You are not alone.

You are not forsaken.

You are not unloved.

And above all…never, ever, give up!

The interview I had with John Kremer above was a rare opportunity for me to market my book.

I get John’s weekly newsletter, and in one of them he asked people who have some rare topic to talk about to send him an outline of what you might talk about in an interview with him on a podcast.

I decided to take a shot at it, and sent an outline of how I could share many unusual places to sell your books. John was all over it.  He really like the topic.

This was one of those things that a person might ask me at the end of one of my keynote speaking engagements. “How did you get this great opportunity?” The answer would two words…”I asked.”

If you don’t push your platform, and try to spread your brand you will be dead in the water.

Don’t ever be shy. I will be telling you on Friday how I got a very famous person to do the foreword for my book, “Signs of Hope: Ways to Survive in an Unfriendly World.” It was unorthodox, and on the edge of being rude.

Thoughts just for you….

I went through a very stressful day today. I had to place my mother on Hospice care. The pain and frustration felt when doing this left me in a state of exhaustion, and sadness.

But when I met with the team of Hospice care givers, and they told me what they can do for my mom in her end times, I gained much comfort in that she will be cared for in a very professional way, and her life will have some dignity through the end.

I am sure some of you have or will be going through similar situations.

One thing that helped me through the whole process was knowing that god was there with me. I knew that he loves my mother as much as I do, and will make her final days be as calm, and comfortable as possible.

Remember:

You are never alone.

You are never forsaken.

You are never unloved.

And above all…never, ever, give up!

Do we need to go to a writer’s conference to be successful?

I have been asked this question many times. Let me share some thoughts on this:

  • At a writer’s conference are many acquisition editors, publishers, and literary agents.
  • You can schedule a meeting with any one of these people and present your case for a book you want published.
  • At some conferences you can send a proposal to certain editors, publishers, and agents ahead of time, and they will read them and make comments on them for you to read, or they may even ask to meet with you if they really like your proposal.
  • At meals, you can sit right at the table with one of these people and casually talk to them about your project. I received several writing “gigs,” doing that.
  • There is also all the knowledge and training you receive at a conference. There are many workshops, and key note speakers, that allow you to gain many insights on how to improve your writing, or ways to connect with the right people.

Writer’s conferences are a great way to help you move ahead in your writing career.

Thought just for you…

Do you feel like no one believes in you? Do you feel that what ever you do it won’t be successful?

Remember this…God made you in His own image, and he doesn’t make mistakes. He made you with a purpose in mind. When you find that purpose you can move mountains with God’s help.

With God n your side, who can be against you?

Remember:

You are never alone.

You are never forsaken.

You are never unloved.

Above all…never, ever, give up!
