Don’t you just love it when someone has a success? And doesn’t it just make your heart pump with joy when, better yet, it is a friend? That’s how I am feeling right now. Today’s post has nothing to do with building a blog income – it has everything to do with a friend who wrote a book … I mean, what’s the point of owning a blog if you can’t occasionally bring out the pompoms and cheer on with a big Sis Boom Baa! for your chum?
Meet Wendy Atkinson.
Law of Attraction A Fable: Mr. Moon & Friends’ Simplified Blueprint to Health, Wealth and Happiness
To know Wendy is to know a fertile imagination. Wendy flirts with the English language in an impish sort of way; the characters in this tale are a spoiled but scruffy lot: an egocentric cat named Poopscapaleon Appotamus, an insecure bulldog has been christened Roger Earl of Henry and two shallow mice are Freddie and Arthur … they must not have any traceable lineage or why else would they have no last names?
Wendy’s guardian angel must be a literary agent. This is her first book. Through a set of circumstances … law of attraction anyone? … Wendy was introduced to a publisher who was completely bowled over her manuscript lock, stock and barrel and immediately signed her on. Now you know how even J.K. Rowling had to schlep from publisher to publisher before getting her first Harry Potter off the press? So this must be good. I think the publisher saw a winner in Wendy and the book. Of course Wendy will be on tour, and she’s already getting booked for seminars and guest appearances on shows.
This is a quick, feel good read whether for child or adult. It’s a parable. It’s charming. There is a life lesson. No matter how you slice it,
Law of Attraction A Fable: Mr. Moon & Friends’ Simplified Blueprint to Health, Wealth and Happiness
is a good buy.
In true Mastercard tradition:
Cost to author: sweaty equity, countless hours of misery (its tough writing), more sleepless nights than you can count on fingers, toes, or bleating sheep jumping over fences.
Cost to you: $19.95 + shipping
Shipping: who knows, but tell you what, get your purchase up to over $25 - second copy anyone? – and Amazon will ship it for free, nada, zip, that is zero dollars!
Good Feeling: PRICELESS!
Oh! And I am not above being bribed for an autograph … Wendy practically lives in my back yard!
Please join me in wishing Wendy extraordinary success with her first book.
To All Budding Authors - Success to You!

Hey Valentina,
I ended up on 404 error pages when I tried to follow those links.
the book sounds interesting…definitely one of a kind on the subject of the Law of Attraction.
I look forward to checking it out further.

Hi Carlos,
OMG!!! Thank you for the heads up. All fixed now!
What I really like about this “parable” is that while there is a powerful message it does not preach. It is entertaining and the imagery is magnificent!
Once again … thank you for letting me know re the 404!

I agree with your sentiments, but most people I see, including a few I love, don’t seem to agree.
“We hate it when our friends become successful” sang British band The Smiths.
I’d rather take your view. Congrats to your friend!

lol a handful of of the commentary bloggers distribute make me giggle, routinely i ponder whether they in actual fact read the items and reports before leaving a comment or whether or not they just read over the title of the blog post and write the first thought that one thinks of. anyhow, it really is pleasurable to browse intelligent commentary once in a while rather than the very same, classic oppinion vomit that i mostly notice on the net i’m off to enjoy a smattering of hands of zynga poker farewell
