Exciting News!

Help???
Trina L.C. Sonnenberg

Good morning Dear Reader!

I have finished the first re-write of my novel! I am so excited about this project! It seems as if this has just written itself. It required 30 years of research; and I did spend years making excuses for not writing it, but once I started, I couldn't stop. I'm still working on the polish.

However, having said that, I am stuck. I'll be the first to admit, I don't know everything (just ask my kids). I don't know what the next step is. When I published, 'My Journey,' I self-published. This time, I want to submit my work to a publishing house. I haven't a clue how to do that.

I've been doing research, but I seem to be getting conflicting information overload. However, there does seem to be more pros than cons when it comes to using a literary agent. Alas, I don't know anything about that either.

If you know, or know someone who knows, anything about this type of thing (getting a book picked up for publication), first-hand, please share with me. I need some direction.

Thanx, in advance.
Trii

Trina L.C. Sonnenberg, Internet marketer, author and publisher has just released a new book. This book is not in her typical genre of marketing and home business information, but it is a step in the opposite direction. 'My Journey' is a compilation of verse, written over the last 27 years, accompanied by breathtaking photos of southwestern Colorado.

A domestic abuse survivor, Trina used writing as a coping mechanism during her years of abuse. This book is the result of that personal struggle and has been published as a way of offering solidarity and hope to others who are in a similar situation.

What Others Have To Say...

Dear Trina,

What a Godsend you are and have been for me! Ever since I "cyber-met" you last spring, you have always gone over and beyond to try to help me! I don't even remember HOW I met you, the important thing is that I DID meet you!
Your patience and knowledge have been invaluable to me. You are undoubtedly the best, most helpful, caring and informative person I know. Your Ezines and websites are awesome, not only for the resources and tips, but for the broad topics discussed comprehensively and honestly throughout. I don't need any other ezines; yours tops them all! All info chronicled together and archived under one roof, including ads.
Your unselfish and undying devotion to expose scams without any hesitation or motive other than wanting to inform and warn others of the many crooks out there further amplifies the true nature of your character and professionalism. Clearly all the thorough and complete investigative work you go through to validate your facts speaks volumes in itself. You deserve the highest commendation; keep up the great work, Trii!

Thank you so much,
Elaine Emanuele

Hello Trina!!
I wanted to thank you and introduce myself at the same time.
My name is Daniel, I live in Las Vegas, and I have been trying to get a home business going for a little over a year. When I got started I did not know a thing like many people. I spent a lot of time and money on things that I did not need.
The 1 good thing is that I gained alot of knowledge and resources.
I have had a lot of things go bad financially in my life in the past two years. I was forced out of my primary job, and then forced to file bankruptcy. I have no credit,no bank card at this time, and my wife is forced to work two jobs.
I refuse to give up and I know that eventually I will be making money on the internet.
I am not trying to play on your sympathy, I just wanted you to know what I was up against and why I may not purchase products or memberships right away.
I was forced to change internet providers and I lost alot of contacts. The one thing that stuck in my mind was your e-zine. I had subscriptions for many! I decided to just start over and that your E-zine would be the only one that I would keep.
Boy!!! Did I make a good decision or what? Things just seem to be happening for me every since!!!
I was awarded a course to learn how to publish my own e-zine,gained all kinds of free resources and knowledge. I also feel I have gained a good networking friend and I can not thank you enough!!

Remember, I will not give up and I will straighten out my finances soon.
Yours truly, Daniel, your friend in marketing."

Hello Trina,
Thank you for replying to my inquiry. No, actually I haven't had any contact with Mr. Turner or his offer. I had been told of it by an acquaintance who seemed excited and I was pretty skeptical to say the least. As a result, hoping to save my acquaintance some grief I did a quick Internet search on Mr. Turner which is how I came across your article. I own a Software development company which has been in business for 18 years, so like you I know that it takes a lot of hard work to make money in your own business.
I appreciate articles like the one you wrote because they raise red flags? that hopefully will register with people before they loose their hard earned money. But as you say, you've received several letters from people that had made no money with Mr. Turner too late. I found other posts on the Internet which supported your findings and I'm convinced that the way Mr. Turner gets to sleep at night is by overdosing on sleeping pills. I know that I'd have some real issues looking at myself in the mirror if I made a living taking advantage of people.
Thank you once again for writing an excellent article and I want to encourage you to keep up the great work!
...You can definitely count me as a "new fan"! ;)

Regards,
Bruce Guthrie

Hello Trina,
It's nice to see you've gotten your office space you really needed. You're into so many different things you really need your own little world to create in. Since I've joined LTB you've been an inspiration to me. When I see how hard you work on your various projects AND have time for your family, I realize I need to work a bit harder myself. Plus, the ads you e-mailed us are great. I've already use a couple of them in my autoresponder ads!
