Merry Christmas!

Enjoy this little Christmas jingle from us:

Business Aside, Let's Talk Gifts for the Females in Your Life

As you know, our blog is all about providing information that will help your business succeed. We keep tabs on the latest rules and regulations at the state, remind you when deadlines are approaching, find the newest marketing strategies and share our personal insights about it all.  But life is more than just business. 

Christmas is fast approaching once again and yes we know that you hate to shop. Looking high and low for that perfect gift for the women in your life just is not what you want to do with your spare time. You would rather be fishing, out on the boat, or maybe just hanging in front of the TV. Well, we thought this could be our opportunity to help you in your personal life and give our award winning author a shameless plug in the process!

In honor of Small Business Saturday, we want to help you find the perfect present and support a small business in the process! With over 50,000 copies sold this year, Kristie's best-selling, award-winning books Promise, Purpose and now Genesis are the perfect presents for any of the women in your life and it is as easy as visiting: http://www.readourwrites.com/shop/

Not sure this is the right gift?  Be sure to check out what readers on Amazon are saying!

“I recommend this to anyone looking for a unique, heart-warming romance.”

“Could not put it down. A total page turner, love, fantasy and hot scenes. I recommend it!”

“I loved this book. A very sweet love story that every woman dreams of. “

“She also brings humor to the table and I found myself smiling several times while reading...I also laughed out loud to the point of crying at one part of the book, and ultimately also felt like crying.”

This could be your ticket to an easy Christmas Miracle – A present she will love and love you for. 

Our Very Own Running Man

We are suckers for a good charity, especially one for children.  So we were delighted to find out one of our LE friends, Gerhard, ran 163 miles for one such charity.  That was 52 hours of non-stop running from Cocoa Beach to Clearwater Beach, starting Friday night and ending at midnight on Sunday.

Volunteers were set up the whole way to run or bike with him for several miles at a time and also a support vehicle to carry all the provisions that he may need, including rain gear for when it started raining on Sunday afternoon. 

When he finished at midnight on Sunday it was really windy, cold & wet conditions on Clearwater Beach.  The weather was so bad, cruise ships were not allowed back into the Port of Tampa on Sunday as they were worried they wouldn’t safely make it under the bridge they pass through to get back to port. 

He was doing this to raise money for the Sunshine Foundation whose sole purpose is to answer the dreams of chronically ill, seriously ill, physically challenged and abused children, ages three to eighteen, whose families cannot fulfill their requests due to the financial strain that child's illness may cause.

If anyone would like to donate to this great cause, you can do so by either
