Feed Your Entrepreneurial Soul

Being a writer necessitates a certain amount of entrepreneurial spirit. So check out Chicken Soup for the Entrepreneur's Soul (Sept 19). I'm happy to have been asked by co-author Dahlynn McKowen to contribute two as-told-to stories for the book, and I was thrilled to see that my two stories are highlighted in the book description on Amazon.com:

"...sticking to his instincts and putting value at the core of his business, Tom Chappell, founder of Tom's of Maine, explains how success can go way beyond the balance sheet; and Carol Gardner intimitely shares a desparate time of debt and divorce, until along came a bulldog named Zelda, followed by a greeting card line..."

Dahlynn herself is quite the entrepreneur. Check out her and husband Ken's website Publishing Syndicate and see this couple's highly successful writing business. Sign up for their free monthly Wow E-newsletter.

One thing working with Dahlynn has underscored for me is that relationships are the bedrock for success, for writers as well as anyone.
