The week before the one that just ended was spent at the ABHE annual conference in Orlando. Many good connections made. Even though I have spent most of my career in the CCCU, the ABHE crowd has more of the feel of home to me, given where I was born and raised. There really is a grass-roots, down-to-earth feel of the group. The CCCU doesn't realize that it comes across as elite and foreign to most churches. It smells "liberal" because it is culturally different. A lot of schools with declining residential enrollment don't get this.
My attempt to advertise on Facebook came to a screeching halt a week ago yesterday. Facebook flagged my business accounts as suspicious, and I haven't managed to get them to reverse the decision to shut them down yet. In the meantime, this Shopify offer gives you a glimpse of what I was working toward. I fear I will have to incorporate as an LLC to get back in FB's good graces.
In the meantime, Amazon is offering to create audiobooks out of many of my self-published books. So I did. I'm particularly excited about the audiobook of my AI Living Paraphrase of the Gospel of John. I already liked the paraphrase I did, and I think a lot of people would like it too if they gave it a listen. Now the audiobook is a nice possibility.
I'm trying not to give up on my advertising venture. I've put an awful lot of work into it.
