Thursday's And Then Some Essay preview
Ten Messages Kids Don’t Want to Hear
by Richard L. Weaver II

Excerpt:

Yes, ten messages sound like a lot, but if you show these messages to any adult, he or she will tell you 1) they are sound and true, 2) they will make you a better person, 3) they will help us all improve our society, and it is likely he or she will come up with one, two, or even three of their own messages not discussed here. Try it; you’ll love the results you get!


And Then Some Works - see you THURSDAY!!

  4. The cover of the new book, You rules - Caution: Contents leads to a better life, resulted from a trip my wife and I took to Ann Arbor. Along the way, we were looking for the right colors to make the cover stand out. It was my wife who suggested the color of the yellow-orange of roadside caution signs. When we talked with ANT, the designer of the cover, we shared our observations. He took it from there, and he has designed, it is clear from just looking at it, a truly outstanding cover. Now, our only hope is that it makes as big as impression in sales as it makes in eye-catching attractiveness. Thanks everyone for your kind comments.
