Yikes -- falling down the stairs while carrying the baby -- I'd have been hysterical. My non-fiction read at the moment is a book on how to create a business you can sell, if you want to (as opposed to a book on how to sell a business -- quite a different matter). It's a very readable book, <a href="http://www.builttosell.com/book.php" rel="nofollow"> Built to Sell,</a> written by a guy (John Warrillow) who's been there and failed at doing that and has turned that experience into good information for the rest of us. He says he got more out of his failure than anything he did right. There's even a sellability index tool for business owners to use to see if they have a sellable business and how much money they might get for it. (Very useful these days!)
