For a long time, my book felt very…imaginary. Yes, I had a draft in my laptop. Yes, I sent long documents to my editor. But was anything really going to be published as a book? I’ve felt this way with all my books -- it always seems like a miracle when a real, actual book is in my hands.

Also, if you’ve been awake nights wondering what my subtitle should be – I know I’ve laid awake nights, thinking about the subtitle – now all is revealed.
Blatant self-promotion alert: If you’re thinking about buying my book, please consider pre-ordering it. A book gets a big boost from pre-orders, because that early support shows that people really are enthusiastic. It’s early, I know, because the book won’t actually be available for several months. But I’ve ordered my copy! And that made me very happy.
* In the news this weekend, I saw that Steve Jobs received a liver transplant -- and someone told me that Natasha Richardson's family donated her organs. Have you signed up to be an organ donor? Or told your family that you'd like to be a donor, if that situation arose? If you support the idea of donation, live your values. Putting your values in action is always a happiness booster.
* Interested in starting your own happiness project? If you’d like to take a look at my personal Resolutions Chart, for inspiration, just email me at grubin, then the “at” sign, then gretchenrubin dot com. (Sorry about writing it in that roundabout way; I’m trying to thwart spammers.) Just write “Resolutions Chart” in the subject line.
