From Laurie Puhn, J.D., March 16th, 2005 "Instant Persuasion" Book Signing & Reception in SF

Hello,

I am a '99 graduate of the College and '02 graduate of
HLS. I am a lawyer, professional mediator and author
of "Instant Persuasion: How to Change Your Words to
Change Your Life" (Penguin/Jan.'05/ISBN# 1585423238).
I live in Manhattan, but I begin a nationwide book
tour in January. On March 16, 2005 I will present an
Instant Persuasion seminar and book signing following
a cocktail reception at the Commonwealth Club of San
Francisco. The event is free for members, $15 for
others, and $8 for people who are part of a
co-sponsoring organization [i.e., Harvard Club of San
Francisco].

Perhaps the Harvard alumni in the SF area would enjoy
attending this event. [...]

Please visit my website www.lauriepuhn.com for more
information about my background, book and programs.

[...]

Sincerely,
Laurie Puhn, J.D.

HCSF Call For Local Published Authors

Are you a Harvard grad living in the San Francisco Bay
area? Have you written a book? We'd like to know
about it. We are going to have a series of book
signing events in 2005 and would like the coverage to
be inclusive.

Please e-mail me bengt@post.harvard.edu about your
book; or another area grad's treatise. cc the HCSF
VP of Activities, Amy Hanson, ah@post.harvard.edu .
Include the ISBN. We'll put you on our list and see
if we can do combinatorial signing and discussion

area alums.
