We have several other books that have been on hold due to the economic downturn. The good news is we will be re-launching our publishing efforts in Summer 2013. Look for additional titles to start becoming available in the coming months.

Thanks to the advent of new technologies that are changing the way books are produced and distributed, we are now re-doubling our efforts to release new products as quickly as possible.
