I am a financial newsletter writer and have been writing about this mess we are in for well over a year now. In fact I just finished my first book "Riding The Storm Out" ~ covering the collapse in the economy and the market. You can find out more about it at the website for my book (only an ebook at present, baby steps), www.financialfuturesanalysis.com Hi Wendy,

So, it seems to be a case today of "I can't afford to buy a new wide-screen television, but I got you this book ..." :-D It is always wise to keep tabs on costs, and to seek more efficient ways to market one’s work.
