DailyPepTalkFromaBestFriend.com turns 1!
Holy crap, you guys! I’ve been pepping everyday for a year. I want to thank everybody who reads my stuff. It feels so good to write these and it means so much that people read them. Thank you for spreading the word about the benefits of positive self talk. I really really love you!
OK, full disclosure time. I’ve been so hesitant to post about this because I didn’t want to jinx future goodness, but why not celebrate each good things as it comes. So…
About 10 months ago I read The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Getting Published. I’m not kidding. I followed its steps very closely and it looks like it’s gonna happen. Now I’ve got a really impressive, classy, dare I say prestigious literary agent. 100% wonderful Sarah Jane Freymann and her associate, my champion, Jessica Sinsheimer have been working with me for months to craft a really stellar book proposal for a kind of Pep-cyclopedia called You’re Fucking Awesome. While I was in Idaho, they sent it off to a bunch of editors (from publishers I’ve heard of!) and the wheels are turning. Please knock on some wood!
Now here’s where you come in. In this book, I’ve got to include some in-depth, hard core peps that will not be featured on this site because of their length. I’m trying to think of some issues- like cheaters, other people’s success/happiness, or moving on from loss- that need more than 100 words to pep out. You’ve always been so generous with your pep talk requests, I hope you’ll continue to email me some suggestions and maybe they’ll appear in a book one of these days!
What would you like a lengthy pep talk about?
