Business Description or Elevator Pitch: I am "The Mother-in-Law Manager!" and have written a book called "The Daughter-in-Law Rules: 101 Surefire Ways to Make Friends with Your Mother-in-Law!

Anything else you would like to share?: My vision is to inspire more harmony among mothers and daughters-in-law by teaching all brides the art of making friends with their husband’s mother. The benefits of a caring family go beyond tangible outcomes and serve to strengthen our communities, provide for needs, and increase our sense of well-being.

My goal is to get a copy of The DIL Rules to every bride by donating to the gifting bags of every major national bridal show, through collaboration on marketing and distribution via corporate sponsorship. The Daughter-in-Law Rules also raises money for the National Breast Cancer Foundation whose mission is to achieve prevention and a cure for breast cancer in our lifetime.

This book is based on one of the great spiritual laws of success. Be a loving, kind, generous, openhearted, sensitive person and the world will reflect that back to you—even in the form of your mother-in-law—and she may just surprise you and turn out to be an ally and a friend!

I love the title! I'm looking forward to more...My Mother in Law passed away in August. She lived in Georgia; I'm in Michigan. Although I only knew her for a few years, we had a very nice relationship.

I am just now getting back in the "groove" of connecting. In November you posted a note on Modern B.A.G. Ladies that you had ideas for getting your book out there. I just finished my second journal and am so excited...Love to hear what you have to share.

I'd also love to link each others blogs and websites. We have a page on our website, TheBlissNetwork.com for just that. It's our BlissNetworkers or Friends of The Bliss Network page. Let's get fully connected!

Blissfully Yours,
