Bob,
Just found this blog. If you’ll recall that Amelia Earhart story I sent, well, I’m still waiting to hear from Audible and Cracker Barrel. Audible has called me twice and promised to get back to me with a contract — last I heard from them was four months ago. Haven’t heard from Cracker Barrel.
I know the terrific power of referral. Do you have an agent, Bob, or know agents? Could you help me with a referral? Thanks. Hope all is going well for you.
Mike
