Happy New Year's Eve

Happy New Year's Eve Bloggers,

I will be picking up the thread for this blog on January 5 with a roster of six new authors who have planned exciting tours for the New Year. For a sneak preview, check out Nikki Leigh's featured authors at http://www.virtualblogtour.blogspot.com/

Personally, I would like to wish each of you a Happy New Year and that your wishes and resolutions come to pass. Blessings on each and every one of you.

For myself, I hope to continue to do a good job here at authorsontour.blogspot.com and my boss book promoter Nikki Leigh. I will be continuing work on my Chesapeake Heritage series and hope to finish book four by spring. Chesapeake Harvest is doing well in both print and ebook sales and Chesapeake Legacy is in ebook form and recently traveled to the printer.

If anyone ever told me being an author meant being a salesman I would have laughed at them, but here I am, promoting my own books and the books others write here on . If your resolution is to be more active in selling your work, look at Nikki Leigh's free blogs designed to give authors the opportunity to promote their own work. I have submitted to several of the blogs and it is easy! Check it out:

Happy Holidays Bloggers!

Holiday Greetings

Good Holiday Morning,

Yeah, yeah, I know. Christmas isn't here yet, but 'tis the season to reach out and touch people who mean a lot to you. Some of those people are close by and those individuals get something from my kitchen - cookies, or maybe some of my famous chocolates with macaroon, nut and raisin or pineapple under the dark chocolate. Mmmmmm.

Folks further away will get a call or maybe a card, although I send fewer and fewer cards as time wears on. Techno-Christmas finds me writing long emails to folks I cherish.

There is a lot of yap about how the Internet is free, but who among us does not fork out a sum of money each and every month to keep our computers hooked up to all those other computers? There is hardly a home without a working Internet link. People have cell phones to keep them connected on a daily basis. I don't know, but I cherish that daily call or frequent emails from some special person. They say that the other person cares and sure feels like a blessing to me.

And so, to all of you, I wish you a happy, prosperous and blessed New Year. Have a holly jolly! Terry

Hello Bloggers,

Do you have all your holiday shopping done yet? Maybe you can take today and just sit back and relax. I know I have finished my shopping, although this year was thinner than any I can remember in many years. You can bet I am looking at Mark Tewart's story with great interest.

Mark Tewart visits with Nikki Leigh today on Promo 101 Create and Promote - www.blogtalkradio.com/nikkileigh Call-in Number: (347) 215-8201 - 3 pm EST.

Mark and Nikki will discuss Mark’s background, his book, sales tips and much more. If you are as interested as I am, call in your questions for Mark's answers and his take on the sagging economy. Don't forget, you can download any of Nikki's interviews and hear them at your leisure.

Best wishes for the season. Now that the solstice has passed, the days will be getting longer! Keep on that sunny side. Terry

How to be a Sales Superstar by Mark Tewart

- Special Notice -

Every aspect of our daily lives are affected by sales, even though we may not think in those terms. When you buy any product or service, various sales people are involved in the background. Even your utilities are affected by the sales process. Sales people have gotten a bad “rep” for years, but that isn’t necessary. We all know people in the sales industry that are superstars. The question is – how do you become a sales superstar? Mark Tewart is a definite expert who has the answer to this question and he is sharing his thoughts and tips in his new book “How to be a Sales Superstar”.

Read my review here - http://www.evancarmichael.com/Book-Reviews/2820/How-to-be-a-Sales-Superstar-Break-All-the-Rules-and-Succeed-While-Doing-It-by-Mark-Tewart.html

On Monday December 22nd, I'll interview Mark Tewart on my internet radio show. I'm going to try to do something different this week. When we look at the current economic situation in the US and the world - we know that many businesses are in precarious positions. So, I'm asking people to send me their questions. I can ask my own questions, but I'm willing to ask your questions during the show. Mark Tewart has a wealth of great information to share and I'm glad to have the opportunity to share it with my listeners.

For people who aren't in business - think about the unemployment numbers. They are higher than they have been in many years. If you had tips to help you do better in your current job - even if you aren't in sales - wouldn't that make you worth more to your current employer?

Feel free to send me your questions and for people who cannot listen to the show live, you can visit the site www.blogtalkradio.com/nikkileigh and download the show. We will be on air Monday December 22, 2008 at 3 pm EST. If you have questions, please forward them to nikki@nikkileigh.com
