Sixteen new eBook options
Dear Reader,
I recently bought Apple's cute little iPod shuffle (in blue), after deciding that music would make running more tolerable. Thus far, I've loaded at least 80 songs on it and really am exercising more often.
Of course it's not always this easy or enjoyable finding a way to become motivated. However, I bet that many of you have simple tricks to jump-start your goals. What strategies have helped you?
I hope that this month's SAS Book Report makes your life a little easier. You'll find new books (including 16 new eBook offerings), SAS tips, a publishing opportunity, and a complete list of conferences we're attending this fall. If we can't chat with you in person, please email your questions, suggestions, and feedback to us.
In the meantime, I'll continue gathering the latest updates about our books while listening to my new playlist. Have a great month!
See you in October,
Shelly Goodin
Editor, SAS Book Report

A few of its benefits include:
