I'm so excited! I have had such a non-stop week that yesterday I didn't have a minute to tell you. Thursday night after a long, wonderful day speaking to 165 gals at the Women of Influence luncheon with my with my radio show co-host Susie Galvez ...I came home to discover that my latest book Live Like Your Nail Color, Even If You Have Naked Nails became an Amazon Best Seller in 2 categories - Beauty & Fashion and Self-Esteem!!! A book reaches Amazon Best Selling status when it's one of the top 100 books in a category. See what I mean, here's a snap shot from the book's Amazon page Thursday night:
Of course, I LOVE the category Self-Esteem because that's what Live Like Your Nail Colors, Even If You Have Naked Nails is truly all about - feeling good about who you already are and your ability to handle life, which is the foundation for ANY succesful life. But Beatuy & Fashion....is that a hoot or what?! If you had told me 20 years ago as an engineering grad and tomboy that I was going to have a best selling book in beauty and fashion I would have thought you were nuts! My life truly has gone from math to manicures...LOL!! Shela Dean, whose review appears on the books' Amazon page, combines my take on combining nail color and self-esteem it like this: "Who thought self-improvement could be so much fun? Mary Foley is as much fun as a girl can get. And that fun is on every page of her latest book. By using the metaphor "doin' your nails"--something we all do, Mary has provided regular reminders that we need to be kind, thoughtful, generous, etc., TO OURSELVES! What woman doesn't need that reminder?" Thank you to every gal and guy who purchased a copy of my book on Amazon this week! YOU made reaching Amazon best seller status happen! If you didn't pick up a copy of Live Like Your Nail Color, Even If You Have Naked Nails here are 2 ways you get it right away PLUS get a Live Like Your Nail Color Party Pack absolutely FREE! 1. You can order it on Amazon for only $10.17! They actually lowered the price twice this week. I have no idea how long it's going to last (contrary to popular believe, authors do not have a bat phone to Amazon!) 2. Join me at the Barnes & Noble in Short Pump, VA (11640 W Broad St) tomorrow, Sun, Dec 6th at 1 pm when I'll be doing a fun book discussion and signing. It's a great way to get autographed copies for girlfriend holiday gifts. Plus, if you live in the Richmond, VA area, you can call order it online and pick it up any time at the store. Either way, everyone who buys just 1 book will get their choice of a bottle of polish with a CD about how to live like that nail color.

Why not get copies for girlfriend holiday gifts and then throw a Live Like Your Nail Color Party for you and 3 of your friends in the New Year? I'll help!
