The Till Sex Do Us Part teleseminar series

Monday, December 22nd, 2008

I’m a big believer that good sex has very little to do with intercourse. Instead good sex is largely to do with what goes on outside the bedroom. Sex is, however, an easy barometer to determine what’s happening in the relationship (fights, happy, sad, etc.)

As such, I’m creating a teleseminar series that looks at sex in a holistic sense. Please don’t be put off by the airy-fairy language. All this means is that the quality and frequency of your sex life is affected and determined by extraneous factors.

So far I’ve lined up some pretty wonderful experts.

(1) Lorna McLaren will tell us about: how to communicate; understanding your partner’s personality style; and how stress affects your sex.

(2) Dr. Brian Parker will tell us “the guys side” and we’ll also go into debunking many sexual stereo types and myths that get in the way of couples enjoying sex.

(3) Michelle Cederberg is a life/ balance expert and she will discuss how to find balance in a chaotic life.

(4) Dr. Natasha Iyer, M.D. is an expert on how hormones affect our stamina, libido and sex drive. She’ll tell us what we can do if we find our sex life sagging.

Pretty exciting stuff!

There are more guests that haven’t confirmed. Click here to sign up for my newsletter so I can keep you posted on when the teleseminar series starts and how you can sign up.

And now the publicity starts…

At the same time as I started writing this book two years ago, I started marketing my book. And even though I did a lot of research into the publishing world to understand what I was getting into…it didn’t prepare me for what I was getting into.

I have found out that writing and editing the book although arduous and very work intensive is about 25% of the process. Getting my book in front of the masses is about 75% of the work.

Granted I am a first time author and with this book came a litany of “first times”. The next time I go through this process–I sincerely hope–it won’t be as much work; or as much of a need to prove myself to the world and its critics.

The good news is I have an undergraduate degree in business. I spent ten years working in marketing and promotions. So the last six to eight months of complete and utter marketing have been like coming home to an old friend. I now sympathize with my other author friends who have written very good books and struggle with how to get people to buy their book. It’s not easy.

Happily reporters, radio shows and TV shows are calling asking for interviews. It still seems surreal. Me and my little theory on why women don’t enjoy sex and what they need to do about it, have been waiting in the shadows for three (or more) years.

And now, what I believe about the average female’s sexuality is about to be scrutinized by the world. I can’t tell you how nerve wracking it is. Makes me appreciate why the good-old authors of the past took up drinking.

Yet, I know what I’m saying in my book is what is true for the average gal. I’ve put my theory in front of too many women in seminars and have seen from their reaction that I speak their behind-closed-doors-sexual-secret. What remains to be seen is whether everyone else who hasn’t been to my seminars is ready to take on my idea. Only time will tell.

It is show time. Wish me and my theory luck.
