Base 10 Number System
For any of you that happened to watch Channel 13 Valley Report from Blue Ridge last night you undoubtlably noticed that I was looking rather portly, except when I was posing with my book poster and trying to appear pensive.I had always heard that the camera put on 10 pounds, well apparently they were counting in the Base 10 number system by all appearences.
However, besides my appearance, it was a wonderful piece about my Redhead work and great publicity for the Bethlehem Writers Group, of which I am a contributing member.
If interested go to www.bethlehemwritersgroup.com for more info on our group.
Here is link to a pdf that contains our current book signing schedule.

PETE&C Pa Technology Conference 2010
I'm attending the 2020 PETE & C technology conference. Listened to Sir Ken Robinson, author of "The Element". Great speech, focused on returning education to a more agrarian syle of planting, nuturing and caring atmosphere as opposed to an Industrial Revolution standardized style of educating.
Speaks to the journey inside yourself to reach for your potential, there is no time frame for this journey. This rings so true with me, as I have been on this journey of reinventing myslelf for years.
This conference energizes me every year, the speakers are top notch and worth the price of admission alone.

Making it to the Big Time
That's right folks, I finally joined the 21st century and created a virtual world all for myself. It was a long time coming, and really the delay was due to some very technical issues. Namely me finding the time to get around to it. It is usually the case that I am the weakest link in all my endeavors.
The really cool part is that I now own my name. A wise investment to be sure. However, someone beat me to the big, big time. I had to settle for the secondary big time.
I now own the link to www.jeffbaird.net
Unfortunately someone beat me to the .com domain. I plan on making them an offer they can't refuse to relinquish the naming rights to the .com site.
Right now I have very little posted other than a template and some links but more will follow. As soon as I find the time to update. Possibly the 22nd century.
See you online.

We Don't Need No Stinkin Badges
Well actually we do, especially if they are badges of honor. Our BWG group just was notified that we are the proud recipents of Gold “Badges” or Medals.
We are recieving the Badges because we won two top categories in the Next Generation Indie Book Award.
We won for best Short Story Fiction and also for Best Anthology series. We can now legally put these Gold Badges on our book cover. In addition, there is a NYC book expo that will now feature our work at the end of May.
So who said that Stinkin Badges were a bad thing, Not I!
Here is a link to their page but they are still showing the 2009 Winners, I will let you know when they update their Badge of Honor.
