Acknowledgments
I hope this book will serve as an inspiration to all bloggers seeking a book deal. This book came about through my editor Ellen Hallsworth approaching me to write for John Wiley having read my blog
www.murraynewlands.com. It can happen! I would like to thank Ellen who has become a friend during this book for all her suggestions and hard work in helping this project succeed.
I am indebted both consciously and unconsciously to a great many people for their help, support and inspiration when I needed it. Two bloggers who inspired me right from the start are Heather Smith,
HeatherinBC.com and Steve Hall,
Adrants.com. Chris Brogan reached out to me as I was just starting and has encouraged me along my journey. I’d like to express my gratitude to my business partner in Influence People, Luke Brynley-Jones, for the global trip we have been on.
I would also like to thank in no particular order Sue Keogh, Pierre Zarokian, Andrew Bennett, Dana Oshiro, Holly Homer, Chris Tew, Nadeem Azam, Warren Whitlock, Jonathan Volk, Jennifer Lindsay, Tom Foremski, Oliver Roup, Kristi Hines, Dazzlin Donna Fontenot, Connie Roberts, Ann Smarty, Gail Gardner, Ron Cripps, John Chow, Tamara Walker, Scott James, Vandy Massey, Nick Welsh, Geoff Jones, Filip Matous, Shawn Collins, Missy Ward, Emma Jones, Eric Schechter, Marissa Louie, Greg Rollett, Jorgen Sundberg, Katja Garrood, James Evans and Brian Solis – and my dad for casting a professorial eye over the draft.
