This just in! Awake at the Wheel, my book on what it takes to originate, develop, and manifest BIG IDEAS has just won a Silver Medal in the Axiom Business Books Awards competition (Business Fable category).

Needless to say, I am very pleased and hope this kind acknowledgment by the savvy business wizards at Axiom will encourage you to click here and order a copy (or ten) before the Sultan of Brunei buys out the entire inventory.

Awake at the Wheel final cover.jpgA huge thank you to the fabulous Nettie Hartsock (digital strategist, publicist, and book champion) for encouraging me to enter. And another huge thank you to David Hancock and the wonderful people at Morgan James Publishing for seeing the value of my book (after 22 other publishers rejected it) and launching it lovingly into the world.

Hi Mitch,

This is awesome and well deserved. Congratulations!
I don't know if this is going to post cos it has asked for my URL and I don't have the foggiest what it expects me to write in there. What does it stand for? Ugly Rabid Lipogram?
Well done!!!

Love, Michelle

Warm Regards,
