UPDATE! (Posted 6/11/19 at 3:18 p.m.) MACKENZIE MAE IS HERE!!! OUR MANAGING EDITOR, BRIAN WHIDDON, WILL BE ANNOUNCING THE DATE, HOUR, AND MINUTE OF MACK’S ARRIVAL, AND THE WINNER OF THE CONTEST BELOW THIS WEEK! Please stop submitting guesses. The contest is closed. 🙂
Here is the new wee angel! Isn’t she absolutely EXQUISITE?!?! 🙂
Our wee little grand daughter is 5 days past due and our daughter’s doctor is threatening a c-section. Induction would be dangerous because she’s having a VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean).
To keep our impatient minds occupied, we decided to hold a FUN contest! When do YOU think the little angel will be born? The person guessing closest to the date, hour, and minute (Eastern Time) will receive a free book publishing package from BookLocker! Please send your guess to me RIGHT HERE. 🙂
Facts that might help with your estimate:
Baby girl
Due date was 6/1/19
For her last pregnancy, they induced labor after her water broke so we don’t know what her body’s natural “laboring” is supposed to be…nor how early/late her babies would normally arrive.
I had a successful VBAC with Mason, and then published a book about the topic. It still sells very well! 🙂
Ali works for us and, yesterday, we forced her to go on early maternity leave to try to get things going. BookLocker offers very generous maternity and paternity leave benefits. She’s such a work-a-holic! I caught her online at 10:30 processing an author order!!
I must cut this short because the majority of her work is on my desk now. 😉

90+ DAYS OF PROMOTING YOUR BOOK ONLINE: Your Book's Daily Marketing Plan by Angela Hoy and Richard Hoy
Promoting your book online should be considered at least a part-time job. Highly successful authors spend more time promoting a book than they do writing it - a lot more.
We know what you're thinking. You're an author, not a marketer. Not to worry! We have more than a decade of successful online book selling experience under our belts and we're going to teach you how to promote your book effectively online...and almost all of our techniques are FREE!
Online book promotion is not only simple but, if you have a step-by-step, day-to-day marketing plan (this book!), it can also be a very artistic endeavor, which makes it fun for creative folks like you!
Yes, online book promoting can be EASY and FUN! Let us show you how, from Day 1 through Day 90...and beyond!
