Hey,
I appreciate you reviewing my site and the changes I made. I've already received some positive fed-back on the changes and someone who wants to buy the book! Yippee!!!
I guess the thing I like the most is seeing that my changes have paid off. Thanks for looking out for me!

What You Need to Know About Me:
I created the suspense novel Won't Be Denied. As I
wrote it uncovered pure pleasure, joy, passion, drive
desire and peace.

Now I seek for others to find pleasure and joy as well,
once they read it from cover to cover.

Oh, I'm an author! ;o)

I didn't! Not until 2005 when I learned as an author, I
needed more than a book cover and a chapter excerpt
to generate the two key things a website MUST do.

During a two and half year sabbatical toward learning,
studying, and coaching I learned what makes a up a
successful website. It's amazing how knowing makes
a difference.

SPAM IS SO NOT COOL!

Please do not greet everyone on the site with large images and announcements of your book or business. Yes, you want to tell the world, but learn the fine art of subtlety. A simple welcome and signature/link is fine. Let them ask you for more.
We have lost numerous members because of the amount of 'friend' mail they instantly receive. This Hurts Everyone.
Spam is unsolicited advertising, whether it is posted as comments on other members' pages or is emailed for marketing purposes.

Please be considerate. Post your advertisement in the proper Articles/Forum or Group. There are free classifieds on the Pages tab. You can post your information on your profile and even update your blog as often as you like.

We are not into censorship, so please don't make us ask you to leave. Be kind and unselfish - don't spam.
