You may or may not have heard, but word on the street is that I have a new book coming out on January 17th! That’s one week away! In case you missed it, I’ve been working on a home cleaning book over the past year-and-a-bit called The Cleaning Ninja and I’m super proud/excited/thrilled about how it turned out.
The Cleaning Ninja? What does that even mean?
Glad you asked! 🙂 I wanted this book to be really, actually valuable and useful for you in real life. But for real. Not like how some books tell you they want to be useful, but then spend 30% of the book on flowery hippie-dippie talk, and another 40% basically re-capping that same flowery hippie-dippie talk. I wanted this book to be full of usable, motivating, empowering, actionable information on every single page. The kind of stuff that makes you want to jump up and try it out when you’re half-way through reading the page because you just can’t help yourself. I love books like that, and I’m thinking that maybe you do too. 🙂 So it’s not so much that I think that I’m a Cleaning Ninja and that this book is all about me being awesome, it’s more that I want you to feel like a Cleaning Ninja with all your newfound information, ideas, motivation, and general homekeeping awesomeness once you start reading the book. That’s what it’s all about for me. That’s how I win the gold medal of authordom as far as I’m concerned.
I’ve been recapping the whole writing process over the last few months. You can find those posts here and you can read a little more about the book itself here. It’s been a crazy, twisty-turny road but I love where I ended up with it! 🙂
If all this sounds like something you’d like to check out, The Cleaning Ninja will be available a week from today everywhere that books are sold or you can pre-order your copy now and it will ship out to you on the 17th! I just noticed that Amazon has the book available for a special pre-order price right now (31% off!), so that seems like a great way to go!
