Please stop by and say hello to me at the Author's Literary Tent and pick up a
special free book mark which won't fall out of your book! I made these just for
you and I wore my hand out working on the computer to make these! They are
worth it. These special book marks allow you to make notes in the book without
actually writing in it. Take advantage of this opportunity to have a special inscription and autograph for your copy.
"A Year of Good Manners" by Margery Sinclair and Jan Polk ($27.05) is for sale year round at the Orange Beach Art Center Gift Shop
as well as from my website and
Margery Sinclair's.
"A Year of Good Manners" by Margery Sinclair and Jan Polk is a beautiful hard cover birthday book featuring 365 etiquette tips written by Margery and the reasons to use each one. Margery uses a humorous style to convey very important information.
People always say they should teach this information in the schools. The truth is
parents should teach this information in the home because it is the foundation of
of our honorable, civilized, law abiding nation. We use this information everywhere
we go. Respect and Good Manners are the reasons we can meet in pubic places as large groups of free people and can feel safe while doing so.
Margery says, "Never discount the "likeability factor." When people like you
partly because of your good manners, they are more likely to give you a break
in other areas. A likeable person can be charmingly eccentric; an unlikeable
person just seems weird."
In these hard economic times, when all other factors are equal, employers
will hire the person with the best manners. It is our common bond. We
all want to be treated with respect.
We invite you to read some of the tips in our book at www.ayearofgoodmanners.com
