Wow, Friday the 13th was actually a lucky day for me, meaning good luck!  I gave my speech at the Rotary here in Grants Pass, the one that meets at the TapRock restaurant, and I did well.  I practiced and practiced and practiced until I had it down.  I was surprised because I thought it would be in a conference room but it was in the main dining room.  I chose to not use the podium and instead walked around.  I referred to my notes on occasion and made lots of eye contact.  Then a woman came up to me and said she really enjoyed my talk and I was jazzed, of course.  And do you know what happened?  This woman ended up buying 10 books from me the following week.  How great is that!
