About Me and My Book:
I am the founder of Rest Ministries, a Christian organization that provides encouragement programs, resources and publications to improve their quality of life, including National Invisible Chronic Illness Awareness Week.

Through marketing on the internet since 1997, I have reached millions and sold many self-published books. People kept coming to me to ask what I did and how I did it, so I've put together some of my best tips in my first ebook at youcansellmorebooks.com . I've also had the opportunity to help people come up with marketing ideas for their book proposals at writers conferences and CLASS and have spoken on book marketing.

Some of my web sites include:
www.restministries.org
www.hopekeepersmagazine.com
www.invisibleillness.com
www.illnesstwitters.ning.com

53 Writers Digest Magazines Available

I am looking to unload about 53 "Writers Digest" magazines from July 2001 - Dec 2006. Anyone want to make me an offer? I keep thinking I will read through them again, but office needs cleaned up! Though they are dated a bit, a lot of the articles and resources are still helpful and not a great deal different than current times. I don't want to just toss them. If I had more time I'd be the one devouring them! Just email me at rest@restministries.org if you're interested. Maybe a $20 donation for… Continue

Hello, Lisa. I started a group called San Diego, California Writers. I was hoping you might join. You are invited and welcome. Maybe one day if there are enough people in the group we can put together a book fair of some sort.

Hi Lisa:
I'd love to be a part of Invisible Illness Week Sep 14-20. I was diagnosed with both Systemic and Discoid Lupus in 1980. My book, When Reality Shines (Amazon & B&N) chronicles my twelve year battle with the disease and the supernatural healing I received. I'm open to--- radio interview, seminar, work shop, Q&A. Anything that will spread the word, help, support or enlighten others. My many years of experience has made me an expert on the subject of Lupus and I'm more than willing to share. Please let me know what I need to do to be a part of this great event.
Thanks, Susan

Hi Lisa;

I scrawled through your posts on your site. Really enjoyed reading your information. Wondering if you'd be interested in linking yours with mine? "Conquer All Obstacles" calls for writers. I basically share my wealth of knowledge with fellow writers. Your information would add to mine as mine with yours. I have near 5,000 hits. Interested? Contact me at gr5mom2@yahoo.ca.

God bless.

By involving the local community, authors, publishers, editors, journalists and all forms of the literary world, we are opening their minds and bringing hope where there was doubt.

It was designed to bring world-class authors, literature professors, editors, journalists, illustrators, photo journalists, proofreaders, publishers, publicists, screenplay writers, and website/graphic designers, etc. one-on-one with young and old alike. It is the opportunity of a lifetime for someone who has had a manuscript in a desk drawer for 40 years or who has an outstanding poem that simply must be read.
