__________________________________________________________________________________

Now I have another free book to give away! The book is called, How to Win Over Worry. It is written by John Edmund Haggai. He is the founder of Haggai Institute for Advanced leadership Training. He has written eleven other books. This particular book is very timely, because of the situations you and I have to go through because of the economy. It is very easy to fall into self doubt, anxiety, low self esteem, fear, depression, etc.

How to Win Over Worry, Has over 2 million copies in print. This shows us many people are getting it to help them cope in their lives.

You can have it free! Just sign up for my free newsletter by going over to the right sidebar, and click on “Sign up of my free newsletter,” and your name will be put in a drawing for the book. For every new person you get to sign up, you have another chance in the drawing. So if you get ten people to sign-up you will have eleven chances.

I have some exciting news about my book, Close Encounters of the Heavenly Kind: Life beyond Bumper Stickers. People are starting to endorse the book. That is why I just added the endorsement tab at the top of this site for you to check them out as they come in.

I have eight people reading the manuscript, and I am hoping they all like the book. I can’t tell you the names of the people who are considering endorsing the book because that would be wrong. They wouldn’t want me to falsely claim they endorsed the book.

You can read excerpts from the book when you sign-up for my free newsletter. I will have a chapter in each newsletter.

I have also signed up for Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, Friendster, and My Space.

I am up and running on Facebook, so if you want to be my friend and follow what is happening each day with the book, invite me to join you. I am doing many reports on Twitter lately. If you want to follow me there sign-up now!

I will soon have some free eBooks for those new people that subscribe. All you will have to do to get the free eBook, is to sign-up for my free newsletter on the right side bar. You will then be able to download the eBooks for free.

I am loving this!! I haven’t had so much fun since I first realized I could walk as a little child. A whole new world happened to me back then, and a whole new world has opened up for me now. I hope you will join me on this adventure. Give me feedback when you start receiving excerpts from the book in the newsletter. My email address is at the bottom of the newsletter.

You can email me right now at: doug@dougbolton.com and let me know how you like this site, and ask me any questions you may have. I will read evey email, and try to answer them all.

Final Hours of Promotion is Here. 15 Hours Left!!

Final Hours of Promotion is Here. 15 Hours Left!

The time has come to end the second promotion for free books. Someone will win the controversial top selling book, What’s so Great About Christianity,by Dinesh D’Souza, right after midnight on Friday 5-15-09. That means you only have about 15 hours left as of this writing. This book is autographed by the author, Dinesh D’Souza.

Our very first giveaway was a huge success. If you didn’t get your subscription in before the end of that one, you missed out on winning one of the hottest books on the planet right now called, The Shack, by William Paul Young. It is even autographed. I have about three left and they will be given out in a future promotion.

I am happy to announce the ones that won the book:

Linda Schaefer-Oregon
Shelley Ledfors-Oregon
Shelley Sheehan-Oregon
Rick Stein- Nevada
Anne Anderson-Oregon

Some of the responses from the winners:

“Wow!”

“I’m excited. It’s not often I win in a drawing.”

“Very cool!”

“Thank you!”

“Go BEAVS!”

That makes me feel so good. I love it when people get excited, and I was the one that caused it.

Don’t get too comfortable however. There will be a new promotion starting on Saturday 5-16-09! The book that will be given away for that promotion is very timely. The book is called, How to Win Over Worry, by John Edmund Haggai. John is the founder of Haggai Institute for Advanced Leadership Training.

Some topics he discusses in this book are:

Improve you home life
Increase you financial security
Control negative feelings
Handle put-downs and criticism
Control your thoughts
Catch the habit of optimistic living
Improve your health
Enjoy endless energy
Overcome the crippling misery of guilt
Utilize the privilege of prayer

There are several other topics that you can read about to help you make it through these tough times.

This book has sold over 2 million copies. That means that it has been a book that many people look to for help.

The only way you can have a chance to win this book is to sign up for my free newsletter. That is it! You will then be put in to a drawing to win the book. This new promotion will end at midnight June 12^th. Get your name in NOW to make sure you are doing it. Don’t tell yourself you will come back later and do it. Most people forget and don’t do it.

So, be sure to get your subscription in now for the drawing today, and that will also put you in the drawing for the new promotion. You will see the icon that says, “Sign up for my free newsletter,” over on the right sidebar. Click on it, and put in your email address. That is it. You will then be put in the drawing.

If for any reason you do not like the newsletter, (I hope not,) you can opt out at the bottom of the newsletter. I have a very low rate of people opting out. I think it is because of the quality of the newsletter. BUT that is just me talking. You tell me yourself.

BTW…. For every new person YOU get to sign-up, you will get another chance to win. That means if you get 10 people to sign-up, you will have 11 chances to win. All you will have to do is let me know by emailing me the addresses of who they are. I will then look up their email addresses, and if they are there you will get another chance to win for each one you get to sign-up.

This is great fun for me, and you benefit from not only winning a free book, but receive a quality newsletter as well.

You ask….. What is in the newsletter???? I am glad you asked.

There are four pages to the newsletter:

The first page is my introduction to what is in the newsletter for that particular issue, plus excerpts from my book, Close Encounters of the Heavenly Kind: Life beyond Bumper Stickers. I sent out manuscripts to many people and I am getting some wonderful endorsements coming in, which I will be putting on this site as they come in. (See the endorsement tab at the top.)

Another page has my travel experiences. I also have many guest writers writing about their travel experiences. I will have one in the next issue from a young man that went on a trip to the Panama Canal area. You will be amazed to see the progression of his thoughts from the time he started to when his trip ended. It is a transformation that is pretty cool.

One page will have resources to help those that want to know how to cope in a hostel world. There will be articles from all over the world about anxiety, fear, depression, and self doubt.

The last page is a very popular sports page. I realize this is an unusual page to have on an author site, but I love sports, and I have many readers that do too. My main thrust is talking about Oregon State University sports. Read the latest about what is happening in OSU sports.

Get those people to sign-up! Win a free book. It might as well be you! The people who won above didn’t think they had a chance, but they won anyway!!

OUT!

New Promotion Beginning; win a Controversial, Autographed Book

The promotion of giving away an autographed book written by William Paul Young, called The Shack, has been completed. If you are now thinking. ” Oh no…I didn’t win one!!” Hang in there. My apologizes to you who WILL be the winners.

I have been sidelined with yet another adventure with a physical problem. I will be fine by next Monday, when I have surgery. I will walk home with a new positive attitude. It is nothing serious. I may or may not tell you more about what it is about. I do not like to hear about other people’s surgeries myself. Just know that it is an in and out procedure, and I will be healthier when I leave.

I will complete the drawing for the free books later tonight. I will notify the winners right away. I will be asking you if you will be willing to share your name and what city you are from, so that I can prove to others that we did have winners. You will have your 15 minutes of fame! I do not need more than what I asked above. I do not want anymore information about you get out than what is necessary.

The new book give away will be the New York Times best selling book, What’s so great About Christianity, written by Dinesh D’Souza. Some questions he attempts to answer are:

Is Christianity obsolete?
Why does Christianity explain how the universe was formed?
How did Christianity created the farmework for modern science?
Does evolution actually support the “argument from design?”
Why atheists fear the Big bang theory?

There are many other provocative and enlightening subjects that Dinesh D’Souza speaks to.

This book has the author’s autograph in it. How am I able to get all these autographs? Do I have a special charm, or have I been in the right place at the right time? If you met me you know which one is true. In other words, I am still working on the charm thing.

Dinesh D’Souza is a former White House domestic policy analyst, and is the current Research Scholar at the Hoover Institute at Stanford. He has other best selling books: What’s so great About America, Ronald Reagan: How and ordinary Man became and Extraordinary Leader, and many other books.

The rules for this new promotion are the same:

You will be asked to become a subscriber to my online newsletter to have a chance to win the book. That is all you have to do. I will then do a drawing at the end of the promotion. One of you will have the book sent to you free, and the shipping covered.

How do you subscribe? Good question! Just go over to the right side bar and find, “Sign up for my Free Newsletter,” and click on it. Then you will put in your email address. You will be all set. You will get about two newsletters a month.

Remember those of you that are already subscribed, will get credit for every new person you have register. If you get 10 people to register, you will have 11 chances to win the book. Tell your friends that when they do register they also will have a chance to win.

I will explain later in the promotion how I will know who you had register. The promotion will end at 5:00 p.m., on May 22nd. That is the start of Memorial day weekend for us yankees. This means you have a month, as of today, to get those people to sign-up. You will have many more chances to win.

Join over 340 other subscribers that have joined me in the short time I have had this website up and running.

AND!! Good Luck on winning the book!!

Doug
