News on My Upcoming Book Launch!

For all those who have patiently been waiting for the launch of new personal development book, it is definitely on the horizon! The recent floods inundated my preferred launch venue and their event calandar is now some months behind, but while I wait for the venue to provide a date for my book launch, I have taken the opportunity to redraft my book. The delay has been a blessing in disguise with many more revelations presenting themselves for inclusion in the final version of the book. I decided early on that I wanted the first print-run of my new book to be a handbound eco-friendly limited edition, so this delay also means I have extra time to get the funds together for printing and spend whatever period necessary for the careful handbinding of each volume. Anyone who has pre-purchased or pre-ordered my new book, your name is still on file and you will be notified once the launch date is confirmed. If you would like to pre-order, just email using the contact form on this blog or visit the store at www.sarinadamen.com. I am very happy with the way the book is shaping up and look forward to releasing it this year!

The correlation between perspective and principles!

This particular quote by Thoreau exemplifies the relationship between our perspective and our principles - "If a man walks in the woods for love of them half of each day, he is in danger of being regarded as a loafer. But if he spends his days as a speculator, shearing off those woods and making the earth bald before her time, he is deemed an industrious and enterprising citizen."-Henry David Thoreau

Having some problems getting my blog to function!

If this post makes it to my blog, I know things are back to normal, so fingers crossed. If not, none of my "silent followers" will ever find out what happened to my blog as I will have to start another one, maybe not with blogger.com? Very challenging hat there are no obvious contact emails for blogger.com when support to fix errors is needed! Extremely frustrating and unproductive!
