Said goodbye to a good friend tonight. Though we lost touch over the years the touch of loss I feel makes the years disappear. I pray for his wife and daughter. I pray for his parents and sister. I pray for all those who were touched by his life. Godspeed, Michael.
That’s right, I am featured in a book. Me, a simple photo, daddy, review and lifestyle blogger. Murray approached me about participating in this book a while back and when he contacted me to tell me that it was time to let people know about his new book the How to Make a Blog Book, I was more than happy to do so. Murray is a guy who has never not helped promote people. He even wore one of my shirts around SeaWorld and got a ton of funny poses to help promote me and my new brand. The guy is awesome and he attracts awesome people to himself and then shares them with you.
Murray Newlands is one of those guys who just gives. When I first met him in 2009 at Affiliate Summit East he gave me advice that stuck with me for years and has helped me improve my blogging. Just last month he gave me even more advice that is going to stick with me even longer. He told me You either have to be the guy with the ball or the one who organizes the match. Great advice. I don’t think I’d ever be the guy with the ball but I can certainly organize the match and get people to attend and get excited about something.
I want you to get excited about this book. Murray has chapters by some pretty top name people like Chris Brogan, Steve Hall and Jennifer Lindsay. There are many more in the book and you can obtain it for free (just leave your e-mail address) at the How to Make a Blog Book site. Learn tips from top bloggers around the world on how to become better, get noticed and have fun blogging.
