Here’s A Chance to Be in My Next Book

The rough draft of the 2nd edition of my book “Color Your Life Happy: Create the Success, Abundance and Inner Joy”  is due to be finished by January 18th .  I’ve thought of a cool way for you to be involved (actually I lifted this idea almost unchanged from Jeff Goins who is writing a new book).

What’s Involved?

This new edition of “Color Your Life Happy”  will keep an update of content that my readers enjoyed, but also feature a new chapter.  I invite you to read through the first edition, make suggestions for changes or things you would like to see included in the 2nd edition. You may even share a relevant story of how you overcame adversity to create happiness in your own life. Your story could make its way into the book.

How to Participate

If you choose to participate I’ll send you the full manuscript of the first edition as a Word document. Please use Microsoft Word. Track changes will be turned on, so just type your comments into the document and return it to me. If you would rather, however, you could list your suggestions in a separate document, indicating the relevant page and paragraph of the book.

If you are willing to read the first edition and give meaningful comment,  send me an email and I will send the document to you right away.

When you return the document with your comments (even if you don’t share a story,) your name will appear in the book’s acknowledgements when it’s published.

Sound like fun?

I thought so. Here’s the catch…

I need this by January 18th (sooner if possible). I know that’s not a lot of time, but if the chance to be included in my book excites you, then jump on it. 

Can I count you in?

Thanks,
Flora
