Authors Making a Mark

This week several authors are making big moves with their books.

We all know Melissa is on Oprah tomorrow. Seen the trailer for her book yet? Watch it here:

Not to be outdone, on Friday Wendy Paul will be on Good Things Utah, showing the world--and even Melissa-- that there is ALWAYS a reason to bake! I believe the 10-minute cupcake she will be teaching everyone to make is the Peanut Butter Cup.

I don't even like peanut butter as a dessert and this cupcake has my solid approval!

Off the small screen, Frank Cole started his multi-city school tour this week and started losing his voice after the first day. No biggie. Only 30 more schools to go before he gets a break.

The "Pounding the Pavement Award" goes to Mike McPheters who is travelling the western states with signings or firesides nearly every day.

The "Undaunted Award" (no copyright infringement intended, Elder Lund) goes to Cami Checketts. I DARE you not to review her book. Seriously. Try it. You won't be able to resist. (But watch out, Cami, Anne Bradshaw is close on your tail.)

And last, this week's "Proactive Award" goes to Frank Richardson. You may not have heard of him. His book doesn't come out until December, but he is already jumping all over every action item in the Author Packet and giving me daily reports as to the 5 things he does each day to prepare for his book release!

All of you are working so hard and doing such a great job! Please support Melissa and Wendy if you can by watchin Oprah on 9/17 and Good Things Utah on 9/18.

I promise you won't regret it!
