Lot’s going on and I love it. Staying busy keeps me out of trouble. Somewhat. As I count down the weeks until the kids go back to school, only three, I feel that soon summer will be over and I will really have to get back to work. Not that I have slacked off…much. But I haven’t networked or done a lot of the business generating activities I need to do. I felt that this year I deserved some time off and have taken it without feeling at all guilty (ok maybe just a little). However, there is so much going on I really need to get off this summer break.

So what is happening you ask? Even if you aren’t asking I’m going to tell you. I have been the Indianapolis Small Business Examiner for over a year. For those of you unfamiliar, the Examiner is an online magazine of sorts that is nationwide and centric to local communities as well. Well I also just became the Indianapolis Women’s Fashion Examiner. While this may seem odd, as they are different worlds, it is great for me because it combines two things I love. Business and fashion.

There will be a second printing of Stilettos & Scoundrels happening by the end of August and I have blog tours and other marketing events scheduled.

My next book Chiczofrenia – Being Fabulous is a Skill is almost done and ready to send to the editor and soon after will be the following up to Stilettos & Scoundrels.

Look for details coming the first week of August on some contests and promotions surrounding these activities.

Another thing I am going to be starting on this blog is book reviews. I get asked often about my opinion on this book or that, and to be honest I do on occasion give my enthusiastic opinion even when one isn’t wanted.

I spend at least a couple more days a week in a bookstore and I don’t think I ever leave without buying something. I like all genres and while I see the value of eBooks I just can’t help but loving the smell and feel of paper. You can’t get that old, musty paper smell from a eReader.

So if you wish to have your book reviewed please contact me at laina@lainaturner.com and you will just have to send me a print copy or  PDF copy.
