Monetary Report for week 3, plus a few other things

Okay, I didn't sell any books this week. However, I did get a royalty check from Bottom Dog Press. Get ready . . . it was for $14.63. But, that's pure profit. No shipping. No envelopes. Just cashing the check, baby.

Ah, yes, my writing life on the D list.

So, $14.63 + my original total 0f $2.35 means that to date in 2008 I've made $16.98 in profit from my writing. Yup, you guessed it, I'm pretty close to turning in my letter of resignation at work!

And, finally, don't forget this upcoming event:

On Saturday, February 2nd, The Creative Spirit Center in Midland (1517 Bayliss St.) will host An Evening About Love, beginning at 6:30 p.m. Psychotherapist and poet Ken Meisel will begin the night with a short talk on the neurobiology of love and romance, and what are the necessary ingredients of sustaining a relationship. Then, afterwards, Meisel and Delta College English professor Jeff Vande Zande will conduct a workshop on how to write a meaningful Valentine's poem for one's sweetheart. Meisel and Vande Zande will end with a short reading of their own poems. Those with questions can email Vande Zande at jcvandez@delta.edu.

Cost for event: $10.00
