I would like to make an announcement regarding the Inspirational Book; there will be a slight delay of one – two weeks on the release of the book, due to some inevitable circumstances.
Rest assured your free copy will be mailed ASAP. If you have not sent your correct email addresses, kindly do so, through the EC dashboard or through my email.
The book is more of a journal type and is soft bound. Please don’t expect glossy, colored pages due to financial constraints. What is important are the thoughts within the pages and the fact that it is a collection from all over the world.
Here are the final entries. If there are any questions, feel free to email me. Thanks.

UPDATES: ( September 3, 2009)
This anthology is officially called a journal and not a book, as it has been registered as such with its ISSN . This would be in keeping with its yearly publication.
But whatever term applies whether it’s a book or a journal – the contents are still the same for me and it will always be our first Inspirational Book for year 2009.
All systems are on the go, now!
wow! 27 stories!
great!
take your time Jena, no hurries
thanks for making us a part of this endeavour… and for making a dream of mine come true.
What a wonderful accomplishment and a great group effort.

Hi Mon,
oo nga , nabutas ang bulsa. If I were rich, it would have been glossy colored pages. But as they say, make the best of what you have.
Thanks, I wish I would and would still have some goodies for all of you guys.
Nevertheless, the only objective I had previously was just to see these wonderful stories in print.
Lovely inspirational stories I wish I had found your blog sooner!
You've done it, Jena! Congrats! And way to go to all who contributed!
