October is National Book Month

Stack of BooksHost a book fair, invite a local author to do a book signing, collect books for a local school or library. Read a good book in your industry and write about it in your newsletter.  Have a recommended reading section of your newsletter and on your website and announce your picks for the latest books.  Or you can do what my friend Susan does and be a volunteer reader for a book critic for a local newspaper. You get to write a brief summary of what the book is about and rate it.

Right Brainers Rule! Month ~ The goal of Right Brainers Rule Month is to bring awareness that although we may do things differently than most of the world (who are left-brain dominant) we are highly creative, exceptionally innovative and wonderful just the way we are. Sadly, right-brainers are often ridiculed and reprimanded for their unorthodox ways of doing things. The month of October is a chance to show how the right-brained person can survive and thrive in a very left-brained world.  Check out http://www.creativelee.com/HTML/Free_Right_Brainers.htm for more information.  And while you’re at it read: Daniel Pink’s book “A Whole New Mind- why right brainers will rule the world.”
And Check out my article: Money Management and the Right Brain Entrepreneur in WE Magazine for Women.
