Hi you lovely people,
this week has been a big week for UYM (Unwrap Your Mind).
New Book is Getting Closer
The release of my new book “Your Call - The Guide for Your Hero’s Journey” is coming closer. I received the proof copies and they are looking good. It is really thick with 477 pages. Just some minor tweaks and the book will be good to go. I will start with a worldwide launch on Amazon as Kindle ebook, paperback as well as hardcover. Other outlets will follow and I will announce it here
