I’m always full of crazy ideas. Most recently, I woke up one morning and decided to write an electronic book and sell it on the internet. Sounds simple, right?
The book is phenomenal. “99 Things To Do With Your Stepkids (when they don’t live with you)” was so much fun to write, and people who have bought it actually find it useful. Now, that’s a pat on the back.
Don't let those people tell you what to think about the book--visit 10000seeds.com/99things/99thingscb.html to see how easy and fun it can be to stay connected with kids who don’t live with you.

My stepdaughters live three hours away from me and visit every other weekend, but I wasn't going to let that stop me from being part of their lives!
