Happy Halloween!!!

Hello!  Believe your week has been going well.  Mine has been a fruitful one .. smile ..

I went to a book-signing event and got some great tips from the writer Georgie Binks (it's her first book too and she has amazing media and writing experiences).  Did lots of research over the week and started revising my Ride book's cover design Friday night.  Am quite happy with the following for now:

Also went through my book and removed bookmarks/hyperlinks from the original word document so that it could be re-edited to match some publishers' upload requirement (such as Createspace and Lightning Source).  I am not working on the interior formatting this round.  Instead, am using a freelance designer.  If everything goes well in the coming week, my Ride book (second edition) will be available in early/mid November.

As of this moment, I have two tentative book-signing activities to be finalized (in downtown Toronto and Burlington).  Once I know the publishing/delivery turnaround time, I will confirm their dates plus scheduling more.

For November and December, I plan to map out some social media projects inclusive of realistic time schedule in 2014.  I've found myself running out of time (quite often out of breath too) these days/nights.  Bearing in mind that health and quality of life should always be the top two priority items, I am trying not to stress myself too much while my To-do list is growing.

We have a few live Internet TV chats (since 3 October) and really enjoy them.  Oh, no chatting on the coming Thursday (31 October) because it's Halloween.  We will resume on 7 November.

It's getting cold early this year.  The temperature has dropped to below 10 degree C last week.  I don't mind as long as we have a mild winter.

For now stay cozy and healthy.  Will be back!

Beth
