Travel to a New Blog Community

Monday, November 1st, 2010

You’re invited, starting Wednesday, to a new blog where people can encourage each other and have some fun while they “get off the couch.”

My new book, Hiking for the Couch Potato: A Guide for the Exercise-Challenged is debuting and you’re invited to take a look at the new website —-

Hiking.forthecouchpotato.com

Do you have a great recipe that’s easy or suitable to take on the trail?  Please submit it to the “Recipe” section.

Found a great hike that you want to recommend?  Submit that, too.

We’ll ask people to become a member so we don’t have those spammers who try to take advantage of everyone and fill their inboxes. (I’ve had more than my share of those.)

Also, if you’d like to purchase a book, you have the option of linking to Amazon or Barnes & Noble to purchase an ebook or buying a soft cover book , which will be very secure.  All of this will launch later this week, so we hope you’ll come back and become a regular.   (Also, see copanews.com, which has word of my book’s debut and first book signing.)

I hope to have fun and motivate everyone to be a healthier person!

Back to you soon!

Travel – or Hike?

Monday, October 18th, 2010

I know I promised to tell more about shopping in Scottsdale – and I will get to that next week.

But, I’m ready to share a new project I’m about to launch-

Drum roll, please.

Da- da- da- dum- da- dah!

Very soon you’ll be able to see my book: Hiking for the Couch Potato: A Guide for the Exercise-Challenged

In about three weeks, the book will be available as both as an e-book and a printed book.

A light-hearted guide that encourages people to get off the couch and go hiking, Hiking for the Couch Potato has everything from advice on hiking gear to recipes to an “Ode to Frozen Green Peas.”

It even talks about how to meet that significant other!

So, be on the lookout for the book – soon to be available at an e-store and on my new (not available yet) web site.

Suitable for gift giving! (And the web site will be a community where people can share their hiking experiences, recipes, and encourage each other!)

Looking forward to sharing Hiking for the Couch Potato with you!  Everyone likes potatoes!

PS Please let me know your reactions to my book!  I’ll autograph any book personally for someone who orders it through this travel blog.
