4. How can you know if your E-books Have Value?
August 30, 2008
It’s been three months since I attended the PSA conference in the U.K. and the CAPS conference in Canada. And the NSAA conference in Australia is just a few weeks away!

At the CAPS conference, I had the chance to talk at length with Dan Poynter – an expert on book publishing, who also spoke at PSA – about e-book publishing. Dan and I both presented sessions at a special workshop for... (read more)

11. Lead Based Paint Dangers: Getting the Lead Out
August 29, 2008
As early as 1940, paint manufacturers began to understand the dangers of lead in paint and voluntarily removed it from their products. Those who didn’t do so by choice did so by law when in 1978 the government banned lead from paint products. It would be nice to assume then that the dangers of lead paint are gone - with forty years behind us, there shouldn’t be any more worry that a coat of color could poison us or our children, but it still very well could.
Lead was removed from the manufacturing process in 1978. That did not immediately remove it from the products lining the shelves in... (read more)

14. Release, Let Go, and Allow

Fear, suspicion, and doubt are the primary weapons of the ego. The ego uses these tools as a means for separation, which is it's means for survival.
