Book Update: The New Global Student to hit bookstores May 19th!

November 25, 2008 · Leave a Comment

The New Global Student cover That’s right–the book is written and in production at the fine offices of Three Rivers Press (a division of Random House) and I’m busy preparing the new website(s) and contacting blurbers and all of the other wonderful things you get to do when you write a book.  I’m loving every minute of it (well, almost every minute).

The title has been changed since my last post–it’s now The New Global Student:  Skip the SAT, Save Thousands on Tuition, and Get a Truly International Education.  You’ll be able to learn all about it when the new website launches next week at www.NewGlobalStudent.com

Anyway, I couldn’t be happier with the way things are turning out.  I hope to update this blog on a fairly regular basis (once a week or so) once things are going smoothly.

Thanks so much for your patience!  Oh, and don’t forget to check out my prettified website (also up next week) at www.Real-WorldMindfulness.com

Paying Attention To What Matters Most: I’m Writing A Book About Creative Education For Random House!

December 20, 2007 · Leave a Comment

You’ll notice that I’m not posting here very frequently. 

It’s not because I’ve lost interest in mindfulness!  In fact, I’m more passionate than ever about teaching people how to pay attention in order to get calm, clear and creative.  I’ve just got a very specific audience to focus on right now.

You see, I’m writing my book about creative options for getting a no-angst, global and outrageously relevant college education that doesn’t cost a fortune. 

I’ve got a book deal with Random House for my first book.  W00t! 

So, I’m still paying attention to what matters most. ;-)   Right now, it’s doing a lot of research and writing so that I can offer help and hope to parents and students across the US who are struggling with the typical hypercompetitive GPA/SAT/AP path to college admissions.

Please excuse my absence here while I focus on helping parents and students get calm, clear and creative about their education options! ;-)

Catch me over at my blog about the book at http://www.TheWorldIsYourCampus.com
