My birthday...your present

##

Today's my birthday. Tananarive is back taking care of her Mom, but Nicki came down to celebrate with me, thank goodness. I miss my family so much when they're not around....

##

Reading a text on fictive philosophy...the art of presenting arguments cloaked in storytelling. This is right down my alley, and fortunately it was written by a buddy of mine. So if I can't understand some of the big words, I can call him and ask.

##

I've run through the latest batch of free coaching sessions, and am opening the door for the March applicants. If you are interested in a totally free 1/2 hour life or writing coaching call with me, drop me a line at Steven@diamondhour.com, tell me a little about yourself and what you are trying to achieve, and I'll get to you as soon as I can.

##

I forgot to put the postage and handling on the HERO'S JOURNEY course over at www.realherosjourney.com. Was supposed to fix it, but hey! It's my birthday. The course went to the press last week, and I think I'll wait another few days before I add that shipping charge. If you want a bargain, hop over there in the next 72 hours and take advantage of my brainfart.

Happy Birthday!

Cheers! Chronological age seems to mean different things to healthy people? I feel stronger, happier and healthier now at almost 40 than I did when I was 20... the number of days mean less than the quality of those days.
Happy birthday! Many more quality years to come for you I hope!

A little belatedly, happy birthday. :)

ӏt's caused by the passion displayed in the article I read. And on this article "My birthday...your present". I was actually moved enough to leave a comment :) I actually do have a couple of questions for you if you tend not to mind. Is it simply me or do a few of the remarks come across like written by brain dead individuals? :-P And, if you are writing at other places, I would like to keep up with anything fresh you have to post. Could you make a list the complete urls of your community pages like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?
