I’m off on the longest vacation I’ve taken since meeting my husband, and since opening the studio, and I plan to ignore the interwebs as much as humanly possible except to post annoying pictures of me eating pain au chocolat in every Parisian cafe known to man on Facebook.  You can follow the Facebook adventures here — and yes, that’s a lot of pain au chocolat.) Here are some things to do while I’m gone.

• Consider reading a few of my favorite posts about Sales and Pricing in downloadable, free-PDF form.
• Stay tuned on Tuesdays and Thursdays for FAB guest authors (you know I’m a classic overachiever and have had them lined up for weeks, right?).
• Read this post about turning failure around — and quickly — by my dear-God-I-would-love-to-meet-her-but-then-I-would-just-smile-awkwardly-and-not-say-much-’cause-I’m-fairly-shy-like-that writing hero, goddess of small businesses everywhere, Naomi Dunford.
• Get the free ebook, What Matters Now, by Master of the Business Universe Seth Godin.
• Sip a lemonade.  Now’s the perfect time for sipping lemonade.
• Read some comics.  Specifically, the ones found on Stuff No One Told Me (but I learned anyway).  When this dude starts selling prints, the entirety of my office will be covered in 5×5″ framed squares of these pearls of wisdom.
• And this?  This brought tears to my eyes and made me wish for world peace, in a decidedly soul-stirring but non-patchouli-incense-burning kind of way.
