IT'S SO FUN WORKING WITH YOU (EVEN THOUGH THERE'S A BIT OF TORTURE INVOLVED.) IT'S POSSIBLE I COULD HAVE EVENTUALLY FIGURED THIS OUT ON MY OWN, BUT WORKING WITH YOU IS LIKE GETTING A FASTPASS TO THE FRONT OF THE LINE. She deserves all the success she is enjoying! "A HUGE THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP AND GUIDANCE. I gave her some tough feedback, and she rose to the occasion to re-write her book. Lisa came to me with a very rough rough draft. As a result of the success of her book, Lisa now write a guest blog on pyschology about women who don't have children. Lisa Manterfield's book, I'm Taking My Eggs and Going Home: How One Woman Dared to Say No to Motherhood, was a Silver Medalist in the 2011 Independent Publishing Awards. I appreciate both immeasurably." - Sam Polk. You really are both my personal champion and hard-truth teller. His book, For the Love of Money, was published in 2017 by Scribner. Sam appeared on NPR, The Today Show, and on and on and on. His New York Times feature story on wealth addiction published in January 2014, went viral in a big way. He landed one on The Huffington Post and The Orange County Register. Once his book was completed, Sam started writing articles. He sought out an agent who understood his story and his mission, and found it in Sam Stoloff at the Francis Goldin Agency. Finally Sam felt his book was ready to pitch. He threw out thousands and thousands of words. I have never seen a beginning writer work harder than Sam. He is a voracious reader and knew the kind of book he wanted to write: one that would touch readers' hearts, open their eyes, spur them to action and get them talking. Sam came to me with a dream of writing a memoir - and no idea where to start.
