Welcome to GloriaFeldt.com: Speaking Up.
Friends, please note I am deep into redoing my website. The new, improved GloriaFeldt.com will
launch late August mid-September (you know how it goes with websites :-) Meanwhile, I am not giving this one full attention--still posting but not as frequently. Please bear with me. I think you're going to like the new site and features that will let us be more interactive.
Also, look for lots more about my new book No Excuses: 9 Ways Women Can Change How We Think About Power (available now for preorder on amazon.com!) and tips and tools about the 9 Ways women can change how we think about power on the new site. Yippee, I can't wait for all this to happen!
And meanwhile, you can read my blow-by-blow description of my "Countdown to Publication" on SheWrites.com, starting here with my first of five columns.
Check out my blogs :-)
