Only 5 days left!!! Its time to star in an Ebook.

Global Surveyors.
 
There is only 5 days left to register your interest and participate in the production of 2 ebooks we are creating,
 
called "Surveying Tips and Tricks" and "Tales from the Field Bag".
 
Surveying Tips and Tricks  - visit the link to read more http://globalsurveyorstipstricks.blogspot.com/
is a simple ebook about shortcuts, advice, tips, tricks and things that perhaps you have been taught in your career.
 
Tales from the Field Bag - visit the link to read more http://talesfromthefieldbag.blogspot.com/
is a simple ebook about surveying stories, tales from the field, experiences, photos and laughs.
 
Here's an  example of what we are looking for, courtesy of Surveyor Gary Breisch
 
I have a very interesting story and experience for a client that is a Nudist Resort in Oklahoma for 412 acre boundary survey where I used triangulation instead of GPS to survey remote areas within and outside of the boundary for the section survey.  I did all the survey work by myself with no hired help.  I had a small amount of help from member volunteers but they were clothed while out an about the property and section looking and setting points. I presented my survey progress at several meetings with over 20 or 30 members and officials who were naked.  What an experience!!!! 
 
 
Here is what we have for you just for getting involved.
 
1. Each person can promote their business, website, blog, product, survey equipment supplies, whatever - absolutely FREE at the end of the story or stories they submit.
 
2. NEW NEW NEW!!! Each person who takes part will also get to have a larger banner or 1 page profile about their business in the book.
 
3.Each contributor will have the opportunity to FREELY distribute or the sell the book on their site.
 
How do I get involved?
 
Email me Scott Taylor - scotttaylorsurveying@gmail.com to secure your interest.
 
We will have a short amount of extra time to receive the stories or tips however 15th November 09, is the cut of date.
 
Don't worry if you have only a few words.
 
Don't worry if English is not your 1st language.
 
Don't worry if you cannot write it - suggest something.
 
It could be 50 or 500 words!
 
You can also just write a tip like a quote!
 
We will also make sure that all recipients of the book are made aware that any information shared is strictly for interest purposes and that tips, advice, stories are for general information only.
 
This is a great opportunity to share information with your fellow surveyors. If you have ever thought about writing a book, I suggest you start today.
 
Technology such as the Internet can distribute your book all around the world in a click of a button.
 
Printing costs are reduced thanks to PDF ebook creators.
 
A book is a passive source of income and can sell for years to come!!
 
So here's your chance to get involved.
 
We aren't writing the a 1000 page encyclopedia.
 
In fact, we hope to make this a regular event, but it would be nice if you can get involved in our first editions.
 
So, grab a pen and pad, write out some ideas and send them over now.
Scribble anything that comes to mind.
 
We'll help you write if you like!
 
Don't forget to include your name, country and email address.
 
Any questions or concerns - I'd be happy to discuss.
