The DIL Rules Book Signing Tonight at Barnes&Nobel

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most
certain way to succeed is always to try just one
more time. - Thomas Edison, 1847-1931, American
Inventor and Entrepreneur

I was able to successfully use the #1 secret to
getting PR this month – being timely– and got 2
bookings. First I was quoted in MomLogic.com
with this pitch:

Joe Biden's Mother-in-Law Dies
How to Make Peace
with Your Mother-in-Law, Before it's Too Late!

... and got booked on the nationally syndicated, The Daily
Buzz with this one:

October 26th is Mother-in-Law Day
How To Turn Your Mother-in-Law From Your Biggest Critic into
Your #1 Fan in 3 Simple Steps!

As well, another testament to having a book. I
was performing at a NY Women in Communications
event, when Roz Abrams, NBC TV, came over on the
break to compliment the band. We struck up a
conversation and of course, I had a copy of the
book with me. Roz asked me for my advice as to
how to best go about publishing a book, and gave
me a contact name of someone over at GMA to
pitch. Now that’s leverage!

* * * A Daughter-in-Law Rules Tip of the week * * *

Steer Clear of Religion and Politics When Dining
with your MIL

If she does happen to make a comment that you do
not agree with, do not respond. Just ask her to
pass the salad and then find out exactly how she
makes her dressing––was it two parts vinegar to
one part oil, or the other way around? And then
marvel at the fact that she never has need for a
measuring cup!

RHIANNA’S SONG lyrics and music
by Sally Shields ©2008 Safflower Music/BMI

When will I see you my little one
I hear your voice
and it is all I can do to imagine you,
and how you’ve grown
into a little girl
a precious little pearl

And with your smile you light my world
my tiny friend just hold my hand
and we will be together again!
Although you’ll be a bit older,
but that’s how it goes when you’re two!
‘Cause Rhianna, I miss you!

When I hold your hand, my little one
I’ll see you smile
and we’ll be laughing out loud in a little while
And then we’ll sing a happy little song
It won’t last very long

‘Cause soon you’ll be down off my knee
my tiny friend, you’ll wriggle free
to go and be with your animal
friends!
But I’ll enjoy every moment, ‘cause
soon you’ll no longer be three!
So Rhianna, oh won’t you wait for me?

(Instrumental interlude)

Refrain:

And with your smile, you light my world!
You’re out the door, and now you’re four
And I can’t wait to see you again!
And by the way, there’s a secret
that I have been saving for you:
it’s just: Rhianna, “I miss you!”
and “Rhianna, I love you!”

anyone interested in hearing an mp3 of this song,
just let me know!

If you are not willing to risk the unusual, you
will have to settle for the ordinary. - Jim Rohn,
American Businessman/Author/Speaker

Have a beautiful week, and don't forget to call
your mother-in-law, if only to ask how she is
feeling!!!

Give Flowers to Someone You Love

This week my 5-year old-daughter was in her first
school play. She asked me if I could get her
flowers. I was so happy she asked, and I wished
I had thought of it on my own! You see, I had
been taking her to some local theater productions
at the Y, and she had noticed that many of the
performers received flowers after the show. The
sheer happiness on her face when I handed her a
bouquet of fresh daisies after the performance
was more thrilling to me that I can express
(even though she was one kindergartener out of
130 children and 5 grades participating). It
reminded me of how important it is to recognize
others for their achievements, no matter how
small they may seem, and how letting others know
how special they are to you is one of the most
important things we can do. Therefore, I chose
the following Daughter-in-Law tip of the week:

* * * A Daughter-in-Law Rules Tip of the week * * *

Mark your Mother-in-law’s three special days in
your calendar, birthday, anniversary (if she has one)
and Mother’s day, and send her flowers. But make
sure that she doesn’t receive a card solely with your
handwriting on it, or she may get the mistaken
impression that her son has forgotten her special
day! Best idea is to become a great ghostwriter,
and have your husband pen it from the both of
you.
