I hope you’re doing well and that September is off to a good start!

For the last 10-years or so, I’ve come to really love September. I think part of the appeal to me is that September, along with January, has always represented a fresh start.

It’s probably because of all those years of going to school and associating September with the start of a new academic year that brings with it a mentality for new beginnings. Or, it might be because it’s the start of a new season and the end of summer.

Either way, I look forward to September and often look at this season as an opportunity to start a new project or to work harder at finishing a project that’s been on the sidelines. 

And that brings me to the purpose of this email…
 

Putting the Finishing Touches on “The PROMISE Wheel”

Over this past weekend, I did something that was quite relieving: I typed out the “Acknowledgements” and “Dedication” sections of my book! 

It’s been a long time coming (as family, friends, and most of my subscribers can attest to), and typing those last few words, then clicking “Send” as I sent off the contents to my editor, felt really good. 

But with September and fresh starts comes another project: Marketing my book and getting it out into the world. 

This is why I made this short video (…and to show you what my book cover looks like).

Hope you’re doing well and trying to stay balanced, 

Richard
