Ep 90 ComicPop Visits with Rhonda Rees of Rhonda Rees Public Relations Company

ComicPop’s friend Rhonda Rees is back visiting. If you remember Rhonda is the owner of her own public relations company and when we last visited with her we talked about her book, Profit and Prosper with Public Relations, and her advocacy for Online Book Piracy.

In this visit Rhonda gives first hand accounts of her past year of upheaval by going through one of last years California fires and losing pretty much everything, to just recently riding out the earthquakes in California.

One never knows what life will throw at you, but Rhonda is talking everything in stride and adding the experiences to her life story. If you would like to assist Rhonda in any way you can use the Rhonda Rees Woolsey Fire Fund link below, set up by SPAWN (Small Publishers, Artists & Writers Network).
