<p><strong>Hello fellow dreamer!</strong>  I know you&#8217;re a dreamer&#8230;<em>either that or you&#8217;re lost!</em>  Because this is definitely a place for dreamers.  This is a place about making things better!  A place about fixing stuff, and making stuff bigger, prettier, fancier, more useful, or just plain different!  But the word is in the title&#8230; this is a place about Remodeling!</p>
<p><img hspace="2" alt="eBook by Tim Layton" align="right" src="http://www.remodelingguy.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/thepowerofremodeling.jpg" width="265" height="401" />As much as I hate to push one of my favorite pictures of all time (see previous post) off the big screen, I wanted to write a quick post about something I&#8217;ve not said much about for awhile:  my eBook, <em>The Power of Remodeling!</em></p>
<p>I haven&#8217;t said much about it because I&#8217;m pretty much a regular guy, so I get a little self-conscious being all outspoken about my thoughts on life and how remodeling your house mixes in.</p>
<p>But I just read through my book again. Haven&#8217;t done that in months!  And you know what, <em>there are some things in there that might do you some good.</em>  It&#8217;s no Pulitzer winner, that&#8217;s for sure! And calling it a book really ought to be illegal, because it&#8217;s only 20 pages.</p>
<p><strong>But it is encouraging</strong>.  Encouraging in general, but especially if you are planning or are now involved in a remodeling job. <strong>It gives you a perspective on remodeling that took me twenty years as a contractor to really see!</strong></p>
<p><em>I actually made a few decent points!  I promise!</em></p>
<p>It&#8217;s totally free.  All you need to do to get it is sign-up for the semi-regular <em>Remodeling Guy IdeaLetter</em> which is a free email newsletter I send out every once in awhile with a few cool and inspiring pictures and ideas.  There is no catch and no charge for any of it.  Here is the sign-up form:</p>
<p>OOPS!  I decided to stop doing the regular email for awhile.  I&#8217;ll come up with a way soon to get the eBook download on the blog.  If you don&#8217;t see it in the sidebars, just email me here tim@remodelingguy.net</p>

<p><img hspace="2" alt="Fotolia 1601366 Subscription L" align="right" src="http://www.remodelingguy.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/fotolia_1601366_subscription_l1.jpg" width="250" height="161" />Regular readers know that I don&#8217;t do a whole lot of &#8220;selling stuff&#8221; here at Remodeling Guy. I see my job at Remodeling Guy as building a resource for both good useful information and major doses of inspiration related to home remodeling. So that doesn&#8217;t often include selling things.</p>
<p>But I have something to tell you about that you might want to buy. If you consider blogging as either a business or just something you do personally that you want to get better at, then I&#8217;ve come across a great resource for you. It&#8217;s a new eBook by Ali Hale, entitled <a href="https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/gb.php?ii=613562&amp;c=ib&amp;aff=92218&amp;cl=35717" target="ejejcsingle">The Blogger&#8217;s Guide To Effective Writing</a>, and it is full of very <strong>practical insight and helpful education</strong> toward being a better blog writer.</p>
<p><em>Blog writer?</em> You bet! Blog writing is unique because the medium is different than other mediums in a number of ways. Just because you&#8217;re a great writer in-general doesn&#8217;t mean there isn&#8217;t much to learn about writing for blogs specifically.</p>
<p>Now, don&#8217;t get me wrong, I have to read through this ebook a couple of more times and implemement a slew of great ideas before I can really call myself a great blog writer! But I have the tools in <a href="https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/gb.php?ii=613562&amp;c=ib&amp;aff=92218&amp;cl=35717" target="ejejcsingle">Ali&#8217;s new ebook</a>.</p>
<p><strong>How I Met Ali Hale</strong></p>
<p>I first became aware of Ali through a post she wrote on <a href="http://www.copyblogger.com/heroic-language/" target="_blank">CopyBlogger</a>. I then found her personal blog, <a href="http://www.aliventures.com/" target="_blank">Aliventures</a>, which is also a great place to get lost for awhile. I found out more about Ali there and quickly realized that she is a true expert on blog writing.</p>
<p><strong>My First Impression Of Her New eBook</strong></p>
<p>Ali sent me an advance copy of her new eBook for my thoughts. I thought, sure, <em>I&#8217;ll give it a quick read.</em></p>
<p><strong>This is no quick read</strong>. This is a very <em>in-depth <u>resource</u></em> covering all aspects of blog writing. It took me awhile because I was so engrossed in so much of the content. Like most great eBooks, the links to resources the author draws inspiration from are almost as valuable as the actual content and I spent hours and hours following those links. A simple list of those links would have real value!</p>
<p>In short, the bottom line was that I had found <em>one resource</em> that covered most of what had taken me months to find in bits-and-pieces all over the blogosphere. When I was done, I sent Ali my thoughts, which must have pleased her because they&#8217;re quoted on the sales page for her eBook.</p>
<p><strong>I Jumped At The Chance to Be An Afilliate</strong></p>
<p>I sent my thoughts over just as a blogging pal giving my two cents. I didn&#8217;t know that Ali was planning on having an affiliate program, but when she said she was, I jumped in. So if you buy her eBook, I&#8217;ll get a commission on the sale. But <em>it&#8217;s important to me that you know</em>, I would have written this post suggesting you take a look at <a href="https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/gb.php?ii=613562&amp;c=ib&amp;aff=92218&amp;cl=35717" target="ejejcsingle">The Blogger&#8217;s Guide To Effective Writing</a> either way.</p>
<p>I think it would help you and I think it&#8217;s worth the $29.00 she&#8217;s charging for it. It would have saved me months of learning. The best part is that Ali has a money-back guarantee so there really is nothing to lose!  Hard to beat that.</p>

<p>I&#8217;m so excited today! I&#8217;m thrilled to announce the release of my brand new e-Book, <em>The Power of Remodeling &#8212; how remodeling your home can change your life!</em></p>
<p align="center"><img src="http://www.remodelingguy.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/cover11.jpg" alt="Cover1" width="225" height="343" /></p>
<p>As I&#8217;ve gotten more in touch with this blog&#8217;s regular readers (The Crew!), I&#8217;ve seen some real life proof of the positive impact a remodeling project can have on YOUR life! It goes far beyond the physical result of the new paint, carpet, or tile. There is an even greater underlying value in the act of doing the work itself that <em>I believe can change your life!</em></p>
<p align="center"><strong>Seriously! </strong></p>
<p>No, I havunt bin dreenkin! I totally believe in this message and I know that you will too! If nothing else, it&#8217;s a whole new angle to use when convincing your significant other that remodeling the house is a great idea!</p>
<p>I almost have to apologize for calling this a book, because it&#8217;s only 20 pages long and has pictures of pretty houses on every page, but they say that e-Books are different. <em>And I like being different</em>. So&#8230;I&#8217;ll let the book speak further for itself. Details on how to get it are at the end of this post.</p>
<p>I tell you what though,<em> if you&#8217;re only going to get one e-Book today, don&#8217;t get mine&#8230;</em></p>
<h3>Get The Nester&#8217;s e-Book!</h3>
<p>Since day one in blogging my wife Kim and I have been inspired and encouraged by The Nester. <strong>She&#8217;s the real deal y&#8217;all and I&#8217;m so pleased to announce her new e-Book, released today:</strong></p>
<p align="center"><img src="http://www.remodelingguy.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/nester-book-cover-1.jpg" alt="Nester-Book-Cover-1" width="240" height="362" /></p>
<p>The Nester&#8217;s new e-Book, <em>It Doesn&#8217;t Have to Be Perfect to be Beautiful</em>, is, well, <strong>perfect!</strong> You&#8217;ll love every word of it and you&#8217;ll feel ready and able to take on those decorating challenges head-on, with confidence!</p>
<p>You can <a href="http://www.nestingplacenc.blogspot.com" target="_blank">get her e-Book at Nesting Place</a> right now! It&#8217;s free too!</p>
<h3>Ready To Be Encouraged?</h3>
<p><img src="http://www.remodelingguy.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/cover1-1.jpg" alt="Cover1" width="90" height="139" align="right" />I&#8217;ve referred to my book as &#8220;<em>motivation meets renovation</em>&#8221; and I think that sums it up! If you would like to download a free copy, <strong>I&#8217;ll send it to you right now.</strong></p>
<p>Just enter your name and email into the boxes below and you&#8217;ll be signed-up for the free e-Book <em><strong>&#8220;The Power of Remodeling&#8221;</strong></em> and you&#8217;ll also be on the mailing list for the free <em>Remodeling Guy Newsletter. </em>If you already get the Newsletter, then you should already have the book in your in-box!</p>
<p>You can unsubscribe at any time, no strings attached, and I won&#8217;t give your email address to anyone. The sign-up form is right here.</p>
<p align="center"><strong>Enjoy the e-Book!</strong></p>
<p>OOPS!  I decided to stop doing the regular email for awhile.  I&#8217;ll come up with a way soon to get the eBook download on the blog.  If you don&#8217;t see it in the sidebars, just email me here tim@remodelingguy.net</p>
