Join the Authors on the Final Day of the Virtual Book Tours for June

Monday is the last day of Mirella Patzer and Karen Salmansohn’s virtual book tours. If you haven’t gotten your copy of Bloodstone Castle and/or Bounce Back Book – this is a great day to order yours. I’ve read both books and they are each great. They each have something special to offer to you.

You can visit Mirella and read her interview with Trista Pinkton at

In addition, see what information Donna Sundblad got out of Karen Salmanson –

Monday evening I invite you to listen to a radio interview that should be fascinating. Phil Harris is interviewing Dyan Garris and I have a feeling it will be packed with valuable and possibly life changing information. They are both interesting people and Dyan will just be getting home from attending the New Age convention in Colorado over the weekend. If you can’t attend the radio show, you can download the interview to listen to later. Here is the information about the show – Dyan and Phil would love to answer your questions —

Phil Harris – http://www.blogtalk radio.com/ pharris – 8 pm EST Call-in Number: (718) 508-9893

I might hear you there 🙂

Here’s how you can win…

This week my newest book hits store shelves — THE BOUNCE BACK BOOK — which has a red rubber cover on the outside and inside tips on HOW TO THRIVE IN THE FACE OF ADVERSITY, SETBACKS AND LOSSES.

This book is an absolute labor of love, inspired by a challenging time I went through, and includes all the empowering resiliency psychology tips which helped me, so I might help others.

It’s my mission to give people going through tough times valuable tools to bounce back stronger, happier, wiser!

So far the book’s gotten amazing advance praise from folks like Tony Robbins, Deepak Chopra, Peter Guber,and more. Lucy S. Danziger, the Editor-in-Chief of SELF wildly praised the book saying:”Salmansohn’s advice for regaining your footing after a life set back is smart, do-able and even fun. Chock-full of mood-lifting exercises designed to increase self awareness and enhance resilience, this mini-guidebook makes clear that we all have inner strength, once we know how to access it.”

Basically, if you’re going through a tough time …with a bad break up, illness, career challenge, you name it…this book is a truly empowering resource.
Simply buy THE BOUNCE BACK BOOK before July 1st and send me the proof of amazon receipt to notsalmonstaff@notsalmon.com and you will be given access to a secret library on my site which will have downloadable podcasts from my BE HAPPY DAMMIT Sirius show — informative personal conversations with some of the greatest happiness and career success authors in the world, like Tom Peters, Marshall Goldsmith, Tom Rath etc.

AS FOR THE SPA VACATION… if you buy the book before July 1st you’re eligible to enter my BOUNCE BACK CONTEST…where Im seeking uplifting stories of glory over a tough time. First place winner receives the luxurious Fairmont Spa Vacation! And there are 19 other cool prizes, including fabulous jewelry from transformationaljewelry.com and ipod stereo equipment, yummy food like Fretzels, etc. Again, save your proof of purchase from Amazon before July 1, then write up your inspiring bounce back story — which should be between 400 to 1,200 words– and send them both to me by August 1st. The winner will be announced on Sept. 1st.”

What Others Are Saying About the Book

Reviews for The Bounce Back Book by Karen Salmansohn

“The thing that Salmansohn does that so few authors do these days is synthesize the best of what the thought leaders are saying and thinking and putting it into succinct little chunks that are rewarding and enlightening to read. And then she adds her own thoughts and feelings into the mix to deliver a powerful, emotional yet entertaining ride into a better me or you. This is without a doubt her best book yet. The chapters are developed intelligently, each one is a breeze to read and the graphics really add to the user experience of this content. The cool red rubber cover is the bomb! Go ahead and buy one for yourself and some more for your friends because we all have something we’re bouncing back from these days, right?”-Sherman Sall

“Karen Salmansohn’s writing is always bold, playful, insightful – with powerful metaphors that provoke and inspire. Her kinetic graphics amplify her messages and bring her books to a new level of literary experience. She stands out.”

–Deepak Chopra
