I am Lyn Blackledge, (an ex teacher) and have been selling children's books for 17 years.I have sold for various publishers but now have a variety and am adding to the range as and when I discover gorgeous new books. I am having a lot of fun and making a lot of friends. I also run other businesses from home so basically I have my own big department store! I am an Ambassador for Barefoot books and a distributor for Child's Play books. I have recently become a distributor for Wikaniko - (helping people take small green steps to save the Earth without costing the Earth) http://lynsgreenbiz.co.uk I also enjoy helping people save money on their essential household bills (http://lynsutilitybiz.co.uk) I am also a Rotarian and am a past president. - motto service above self and I love helping to fundraise for charity as well as enjoying the camaraderie of the Vectis sunrise group. I have the responsibility of being a carer for my mum and at the other end of the scale I am granny to Charlotte, Nicola and Jennifer. As you can see I am quite busy but I love it and enjoy life to the full.

More bookings!

It was an exciting and busy day yesterday. I was chatting to my first recruit from Spain who is just about to sign up. I have recruits in France already but am about to branch out further round Europe. I also have someone interested in Italy. With a free starter kit this month its a great time for anyone to join
One of the local schools is having a pirate day and has asked me to set up a book fair to link in and as we have lots of pirate titles this will work nicely – although I will of course offer many more titles from our range of 1500+
Another school has asked me to set up a book fair and they are having a fairytale theme so again I can set my display accordingly. I will also be looking for a local business who would like to pledge some books. The school would like to make gingerbread men etc linking in with the theme and a book pledged by a local business would be a nice guesture in this the National Year of Reading (Usborne are running a community book pledge) other businesses also might like to pledge books for prizes to be won on the day.
I am off to the college today where I will set up at the Freshers fair and will also be displaying the recruiting information for anyone who wants to earn extra before Christmas.
