Hey y'all (authors, readers too. . .) Please do me a nice one and answer the following. Copy the entire text and send back to me. It's really long. . . a trio set. If you answer correctly, you qualify to get a call from me.

Why? I want to meet you (or at least your Siamese twin). I call it a "Author Power Survey for Authors on the Go."


1 . Do you plan to attent booksignings, conventions, retreats, or other business/promotional in 2006:  Please answer "Uh-huh" (yes)or "Nah-nah" (no)

2. Do you plan to do at least one out of town book events (business or pleasure) within the next six months? Please answer "Uh-huh" (yes)or "Nah-nah" (no)

3. Do you want to collaborate on a book event with me to where we can all get a group rate, and get reimbursed? (Yep, you heard, RE-IM-BURSED!) The only sensible answer to this is "yes" because I know somebody who'll do it for you and me, and he doesn't work for Enron.

4. Copy cut and paste this whole thing back, and email the text to clewisreed (AT) gmail.com so I won't think it's junk mail. Type "survey" in the subject box. If you want to travel and make it pay me back as an author this year...even if it's to your Grand'ma's house in the Yukon, let me personally know. Leave a primary email and a daytime contact number for faster response.

Thank you very much. cynth'ya
