Once You're Lucky, Twice You're Good

O, Hai

Yes, I'm alive. No, I haven't quit blogging. Just took a little Memorial Day Weekend break. The last few weeks have been pretty insane, and I'm off to cover D for Yahoo on Tuesday so I needed a rest. Like 12 hrs a night of rest. And I owed my Pilates coach several hours of intense pain. Both felt good, ultimately. And Mr. Lacy and I also got to see the Red Sox get swept by the A's. That always feels good whether your overworked or well rested! (Sorry, Sox fans, but I would have heard an ear-ful if it had been the reverse!)

I'm going to scavenge my neighbor's house for coffee, do a few radio interviews, write a BusinessWeek column and meet you back here in a bit with something very intelligent to say about something. But quick thanks to Heddi Cundle who wrote an amazing review on Amazon for my book and here's the latest review from the Associated Press. Obviously a huge deal, because AP stories get picked up everywhere so I'm very grateful it was positive! It's already been in about a half dozen papers according to Google reader, the link above is from the SF Chronicle who apparently loved my book so much they had to review it twice! At least it was more positive the second time! Either that or my excerpt in BusinessWeek is doing something because my Amazon rank has been well under 1,000 the last few days. So thanks to anyone who is buying!

"Brilliant, Crazy, Cocky" puts a well-deserved spotlight on the fascinating entrepreneurs working in some of the most overlooked places on Earth. This book reminds us that when entrepreneurial opportunity is enabled and embraced locally, the economic and social benefits have the power to transform us all.
Brilliant. Crazy. Cocky.

New Book

An unforgettable portrait of the emerging world's entrepreneurial dynamos Brilliant, Crazy, Cocky is the story about that top 1% of people who do more to change their worlds through greed and ambition than politicians, NGOs and nonprofits ever can. This new breed of self-starter is taking local turmoil and turning it into opportunities, making millions, creating thousands of jobs and changing the face of modern entrepreneurship at the same time. To tell this story, Lacy spent forty weeks traveling through Asia, South America and Africa hunting down the most impressive up-and-comers the developed world has never heard of....yet.
