Happy Birthday to Me! Buy YOURSELF a present.

birthday-cakeI’m celebrating my birthday today here at the Virginia Center for Creative Arts, working on a new book. I appreciate all the birthday wishes that are being posted on my Facebook page–always a fun way to hear from friends old and new.

But what would a birthday be without presents? Here’s a thought: in honor of my birthday, you should buy yourself a present. How about a book? How about a book by me? You could go to the Press 53 website and either get one that I wrote or one that I edited. Or you could visit my Amazon.com page and buy from there. Or buy a book by someone else. That’s cool too.
