If a cute doggy can do it


Meet Oscar aka fuzzy butt, my good friend Lisa's doggy. As you can see Oscar is very creative and he knows that you don't have to be a rocket scientist to make beautiful bound books with our publishing system.
So you see EVERYONE wants one of our books.
Don't you feel the love!
Click here to see a lovely version created by another Lisa on our team to give to her honey on their 10th Anniversary.....
I'm off to Vegas to meet with another 600 Heritage Makers to learn the latest.
Book your workshop with me right away (can be a virtual workshop over the internet) and you will receive the FIRST specials for our Christmas Season.
Make it a GREAT day!

We Bring your Stories to Life

We remember MOMENTS, not days


One of my tweeps posted the cutest story about the Tooth Fairy who was MIA.

These are the Moments that make up a lifetime. It's another reason why I love helping folks create their own Heritage bound books. This is my toothless grandson, so I can relate to the tooth fairy.

Check out the cute story posted on Caroline's blog.

It's worth a few minutes and will bring a smile.

Tweet from Family Stories:
Well [a-hem] the tooth fairy doesn't *always* come thru [at least not the 1st time] ;) http://twurl.nl/ujlmal

(in case my link above doesn't work).

Make it a great week,

Life Story - Family History Classes this week

Let me introduce you to my Dad. Father, Husband (now widower), brother and grandpa to many. Entrepreneur, contractor, retired Mayor, hockey coach to Gordie Howe and most of all the guy who always said, "What's the nicest thing that has happened to you today?"

Well of course that can't sum up a lifetime of 86 years...but it's a start.
This week why not join me and learn some techniques on how to preserve your family history, a life story?

They are online classes, done in the privacy of where ever your pc is; but 'you need to register' for the one that fits your time zone.

On Demand Publishing up 132%


Despite this decline in traditional book publishing, there was another extraordinary year of growth in the reported number of “On Demand” and short-run books produced in 2008. Bowker projects that 285, 394 On Demand books were produced last year, a staggering 132% increase over last year’s final total of 123,276 titles. This is the second consecutive year of triple-digit growth in the On Demand segment, which in 2008 was 462% above levels seen as recently as 2006.

“Our statistics for 2008 benchmark an historic development in the U.S. book publishing industry as we crossed a point last year in which On Demand and short-run books exceeded the number of traditional books entering the marketplace,” said Kelly Gallagher, vice president of publisher services for New Providence, N.J.-based Bowker. “It remains to be seen how this trend will unfold in the coming years before we know if we just experienced a watershed year in the book publishing industry, fueled by the changing dynamics of the marketplace and the proliferation of sophisticated publishing technologies, or an anomaly that caused the major industry trade publishers to retrench.”

Full article is printed here.

Last week Good Morning America gave mention to Heritage Makers www.RecallWhen.com as a viable way to earn money from a 'stay at home' business.
