Feb 16, 2005 - National Work in Your Bunnyslippers Day and
Meet Me in Vegas?
Volume 4, Issue 6
The weekly ezine with a road map for
sidetracked writers.
"Be better writers today
than we were yesterday."
Thought for the Week - National Work in Your Bunnyslippers Day
One of the perks about working from home is that it's 10:30 in the morning, and I'm still in my slippers!
To celebrate the entrepreneurial lifestyle, Friday is
National Work in Your Bunnyslippers Day!
This holiday is sponsored by the producers of the Bunnyslipper Business Bootcamp, held March 4-6, 2005 in Las Vegas, NV, and I'm so excited because I'm going to be there!
I hope you can come, too, and join us for three very full days of fun, learning, and networking as we learn how to grow a more profitable business while working at home. The schedule is jam-packed and the speakers are amazing.
The price for this conference is incredibly reasonable (only $197). I'm looking at another conference in Atlanta that's almost $2000.

Be sure to email me if you are going to be there, so we can connect!
(A blog, by the way, is short for weblog and is an easy-to-use web site, where you can quickly post thoughts, link to your favorite sites, interact with people, and more.)
Do you want to generate massive amounts of traffic to your web site? Get blogged by one of the big bloggers.
Scott Ginsberg (author of HELLO my name is Scott and The Power of
Approachability) did just that.
Seth did and then blogged Scott with a link to his site. Seth has one of the ten most frequently read blogs on the web -- and
Scott got 70,000 hits to his website that day!
One of the best features of blogs is they target tightly-focused niche markets with readers who passionate about a topic -- perfect buyers for your book. For example, the Washington Post put together a list of the best political blogs at http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-adv/marketing/blog/
To find blogs in your niche market, enter your topic along with 'blog' into Google, and start hunting: http://www.google.com
Enjoy your bunnyslippers on Friday! Julie

"Julie, I love your book. I have read (or at least opened) more than a trunk load of books about writing over the years. Yours is the first I have seen that gives readers so much in one place. For me, the Master List and putting that together was more than worth the cost."
