Hello everyone!
I hope you all had a great work week and ready for the weekend?? After some review, I decided to join IPR License out of England. It is an international platform to license book rights around the world. The book will be included in the Beijing International Book Fair in the IPR License trade magazine. I am interested in making the book visible on a global scale. I got to visit New York City hosted Book Expo America the end of May. Made some great contacts and may have an international offer in Asia. I will see how that develops. I will post links when the magazine becomes available.
I had a great evening speaking to fellow NYC union female electricians last night about my book. I was invited to promote the book at the Amber Lights Club in Queens, New York last night. I ran out of books. There was a strong interest in my teen version of my book. Well, done with lunch. Gotta finish the work week strong in the next few hours!
Enjoy the weekend everyone!!
Cheers!

Book Expo America- An Amazing Event to See in New York City!!
Hello everyone,
I am hoping you are all enjoying your summer. My work has taken up alot of my personal time to blog recently. However, I am on here to let you know about Book Expo America that took place in New York City on May 28-31st at the Jacob Javits Center. I had a few female tradesladies come through for me and take pictures next to my book at the convention. A few ladies even hooked me up with tickets to view the event on the last day. What a place and the impressive booths of vendors throughout the world!! I spent a few hours there and felt that there was so much more to see! I got some pretty cool contacts and got some direction with the book and my future projects.
I am showing pictures so that you can see how massive this event was in New York City. It was quite impressive and I did score quite a few free books!! Don't forget the ebook is available for Nook/Kindle/iTunes! I will talk to you all soon! Good luck on the upcoming work week!
Cheers!

Construction Tales is Coming to Book Expo America in New York City, NY- May 29-31, 2014!!
Hello everyone!
I hope people had a great weekend and ready to start the new work week! Mine was a mix of social fun and productivity! I wanted to give a heads up that my book will appear at the upcoming New Book Title Showcase that will be at the upcoming Book Expo America. This massive venue is being held in New York City at the end of this month. Here is the link to the New Title Showcase:
http://www.newtitleshowcase.com/
According to The Combined Book Exhibit, the New Title Showcase exhibit has moved from its previous location in the Crystal Palace Lobby to the Show Floor, Booth #3005, near the Downtown Stage. I am looking forward to taking a trip down there to see my book on the shelves (if not too costly to get a ticket). I am looking forward to getting some feedback on the exhibit! Enjoy your Sunday and speak to you soon! As always, I am thankful that you stopped by to read my blog! :)
Cheers!

Donated 5 Books to Mt. Vernon High School for Career Day!!
Hello everyone!
I think I got about as much out of my appearance at Mt. Vernon High School's Career Day as the students did from hearing my story. I am amazed at the kids in the school who are members of the National Honor Society!! The guidance counselor, Ms. Williams, was a pleasure to work with and truly a guiding light for the students. I decided to donate 5 books to the students in the school who express an interest. It was a great opportunity to talk about my occupation. At least one book will go to the library for students to read my story. I got to present with a duo from All State Air Control who are in the HVAC business (heating/air conditioning). They were great people and I am glad to have met them! I am off to shower then sleep! Have a great week to all!
Cheers!

New Job in New York City as an Electrical Engineer
Hello everyone!
I am entering week #3 in my new job as an electrical engineer in New York City. The days are long and I have alot of information to absorb. I work for the largest electrical contractor in New York City. We have alot of projects on our desks and many on the horizon as well! However, I am enjoying and appreciating the opportunity that I now have in my hands! I got the job since I have 18 years experience in the field as an electrician. I also got the blessing of the boss who thinks I am a go-getter and capable of learning anything I set my mind to do. I am learning right now 2D blueprints on the computer. In the near future, I will be learning 3D blueprints. I am looking forward to working and learning this week!
Happy Mother's Day to all of the ladies out there who are teachers and mentors to their children. It is not an easy role but worthwhile none-the-less! I got to enjoy the day with my boys hiking in the woods and enjoying a lunch together. It was a great day and fabulous weather in the New York tri-state area! I hope to follow up with more details about my job transition and the book in the near future! I must get my rest since 4am comes really early for me! :)
Cheers!
