While I'm on the topic of local businesspeople, Dan Miller has written several books on how to get a better job or make more money doing what you want to be doing. His book, 48 Days to the Work You Love, provides advice on how to send out resumes and interview, as well as a lot of other advice on how to go about getting your dream job. His book, 48 Days to Creative Income, is geared more towards entrepreneurs with advice and ideas on starting your own business. He also provides career coaching advice, and sends out an interesting weekly e-mail newsletter.
