<p>As many of you know, I was honored to participate in the anthology, <em><strong>Life Choices: Pursuing Your Passion</strong></em>. I wrote a chapter on how to find success through friendship.

<p>In March, <em>Life Choices</em> comes to life during an extraordinary weekend in Las Vegas. <strong><em>Life Choices: The Event</em></strong> will be held at the <em><strong>Tropicana Hotel</strong></em> March 23-25, 2012. Many of the authors will be there either to speak or to meet with you personally during a variety of events. Here&#8217;s a quote from the website:</p>
<p><em>If you are looking for a totally fresh way to improve your life&#8230; If you would like to learn how to build your self-esteem, organize your time, solve your problems, create abundant health, and live a life of joy and happiness, this is a must attend conference. </em></p>
<p>Keynote speakers include<em><strong> J</strong><strong>udi Moreo, Jeff Civillico, Anne Abernathy, Casey McNeal, Tim Goodenough</strong></em> and <em><strong>Aimmee Kodachian</strong></em>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hope everyone had a great summer! Mine was busy doing a very important family project, which slowed my book release down by a few months. Right now, I&#8217;m in the final editing phase, which should take another week or two. After that, we go to layout. Fingers crossed, <a href="http://divatiel.com"><em><strong>Divatiel</strong></em> </a>should be out before the end of the year.</p>
<p>I want to thank everyone for their support and to say to those who are anxious to get their hands on a copy &#8211; I am, too! This book has truly been a labor of love, and I&#8217;m thrilled to be able to share the story of my fine feathered friend with all of you.</p>
<p>Stay tuned for more updates. If you&#8217;re not on my mailing list, please sign up. That way, you&#8217;ll be the first to know when the book is ready, and to take advantage of pre-launch pricing.</p>
<p>Until next time!</p>

<p>We&#8217;re finishing up the editing process, and I&#8217;m searching through her photos to determine which ones to include in the book, so it&#8217;s still a couple of months away. However, we&#8217;re starting a pre-order list so we can officially notify you when the book is available. </p>
<p>I can&#8217;t even begin to tell you how happy I am to be able to share the wonderful love of Jake&#8217; with you and your friends. I&#8217;ll keep you posted on the progress, but in the meantime, put your name on the list!!!</p>

<p>Please sign up for my newsletter, too. I&#8217;ll be able to keep you up-to-date on many exciting new happenings in my creative career. I have a number of new projects coming out in the near future. So, be on the list and be informed.</p>
<p>Special Note: Those of you who found some explicit lyrics linked to my name on a web search, rest assured, those are not mine. They appear to belong to a hip-hop artist named Maceo. I&#8217;m working to correct the problem as quickly as I can.</p>
<p>All the best,</p>
