As you know, for the past six months, I’ve been writing Professional Blogging For Dummies (affiliate link). Due out at the end of July, the book has been a big part of my life for the last year. Over the weekend, I noticed that Amazon had added the cover art to the pre-order listing, so I created an affiliate badge. It’s over there –> in the far right sidebar 🙂
Throughout the book, I use real examples to illustrate the points. Some interviews became case studies, other information was used as background, but everyone’s contribution was important. Even though I recognize everyone in the acknowledgements, I wanted to do it here as well.

Seeing one’s pre-order page on Amazon is akin to getting an ultrasound– it’s a peek at the new edition you are expecting to be delivered in the coming months! Mazel to the tov,! Congrats!
