how to become a millionaire

step 1. write a book
step 2. sell it for $17.95 [a fair price]
step 3. sign a contract for 12.5% royalties [which is the highest of the high end]
step 4. convince 45,000 of your closest friends to buy your book.

that's all! haha :)

the meeting with the publisher went well. they're drafting their proposal and I'll get it in early January, and if we agree on things, I'll start writing! how freakin' cool is that? [haha, sorry, sometimes I have flashbacks to when I was 17]. the thing I'm most excited about is that this will be a good resource for churches looking at ministering to the 18-30 age group. We're a crazy amazing group of kids, but we're also one of the hardest groups to minister to right now. I want to do some more interviews for the book so I can say "this is legit. meet _____." I think it'll be a cool project to involve my friends in because they are so diverse and brilliant and wonderful.

excitement :)
