If you can't make a meeting, don't worry. I'll do my best to try for a time that works for everyone, but realistically crises and events come up that might keep you from attending. Likewise if you're having a busy month and skip the book, just jump right back in- there is no marks for tardiness!

I am looking to meet with a group of people of diverse backgrounds to discuss some of the great self-help books if the 20th and 21st centuries.

My vision is to start with some of the classics and move on to more contemporary works.
