Rock Your English! newsletter

O.M.G. (And by that I mean Order Me Gin.)

Is it November already, sweetie? I cannot believe it. Time goes by so fast! Before you know it, the year will have come to a close. And what a year it’s been. Thank you darling  for making it so special for me!

OUR BOOK HAS WINGS

I know you’ve been working your ass off, and I’ve been working on saving them, so let’s raise them

I can’t believe this is really happening, but it is. It did. The first print run of “30 Ways to Save Your Ass in English” nearly sold out…within a week….so now we have ordered the second print run. Our baby is available just about everywhere…also at Schiphol and de Bijenkorf – if you see it, do take a picture and send it to me – I’d love to see your smiling face!

LAST “SAVE YOUR ASS” WORKSHOP OF THE YEAR!

Darling! I am doing one more “Save Your Ass” workshop this year. It’s on 14 December at Boom Chicago in Amsterdam and I’d love to have you join me! We will make the book come alive and go through it together – covering everything from grammar to spelling to writing to vocabulary topronunciation and OMG how are we gonna do it all in 2 hours? We will. You’ll see. I have 2 sessions: 10-12 or 1-3 that day – sign up for one that works for you! Tickets (30 euros a session)available here!

I’d love to see you and your hottie friends there! Books will be signed, sealed, and delivered there too, so if you have a book, bring it and I’m happy to sign it for you or a special friend, or pick up a present for the holidays! Thanks!

WHAT’S UP IN BUFFILAND

I was honored to spend a day with some of the brightest women I’ve ever met at a photo shoot forRED Magazine. The issue will be out mid- December, and it was for the finalists of the Red Hot Women Award. I’m in the top 3 for the Media category, but I feel I’ve already won – the best prize was spending the entire day with these amazingly inspiring women and hearing their stories aboutcourage, wisdom, guts and compassion. That’s the best prize I could ever ask for. And I wore shoes with wolves on them with diamonds for eyes. That was pretty awesome, too!

BUFFI, ANIMALS, AND GRAMMAR.

Last weekend I heard 3 different people using their prepositions wrongly. This is a quickie video I made that might help some of you (I am not mentioning names, but you know who you are…)

YOUR QUESTIONS – ANSWERED!

“Hey Buffi I’m looking for a pronunciation course that will help me develop an American accent – any suggestions?” – from P, via email.

You betcha, Ms P! Have a look at Rachel’s site – I think it’s clear and very useful. Hope this helps you out! http://www.rachelsenglish.com

ALL GOOD THINGS COME TO AN END

Like photo shoots in ballrooms, bags of salt and vinegar chips, and print runs. But no worries, darling! I will be back on your loving screen very soon – in just one short week! I promise you I will miss you more than you will miss me. See my sadness?

Hoping that you’ll look in a mirror very soon and yell “Thank God I’m still me!”
You should, you know. Because you rock.
