A Big Exciting Announcement . . .

I've been talking about it. I have posted a couple of links about it. But it is finally here!!!!!!

But let me start at the beginning of the story. A few years ago I wrote a book on getting started in a small or home business. I didn't make a lot of money at it but I learned a lot about publishing and writing from this effort. The title of the book was A Fresh Start and the information in it is just as relevant today as it was when first published.

And now for the BIG EXCITING NEWS . . .

It's finally ready and available for sale.

I started from the research I'd done for A Fresh Start, 95 pages of good solid ideas, and expanded it to almost 400 pages of small business ideas . . . some quite unique, many added to represent our modern multi-media environment, and some are good old time-tested ideas. I'm pretty sure that the perfect home or small business idea for you will be in here. The First Step: An Encyclopedia of Small Business Ideas is available in paperback and as an ebook PDF.

Please support a local writer by ordering one or several of my books. Thank you.
