More About Me. . .
I have a whole Bouquet of Enterprises to tell you about. But first - you want to know if I
am safe to do business with, right?
Facts about Me;
Ruth Marlene Friesen
live-in caregiver for my father (age 90)
Work: novelist, writer, web designer, friend/mentor,
Hobbies: genealogy, making books and booklets, greeting cards & a wanna be artist
Comfort foods: peanut butter, nuts and cheddar cheese
Pet peeves: "email forwards," and people who pass on the highway over solid lines
(especially near intersections where I'm about to turn left!)
I've always had a runaway imagination, and years ago I dreamed that I'd marry a fine, intelligent
gentleman who would make all these ideas for small businesses come true. Well, instead-- God
brought me home to look after my aged parents, and took time to mature me, and show me that I could
do carry out a lot of these ideas myself!
It's been slow going because I've started on a zero budget. Mom passed away eight years ago, but I'm
still Dad's live-in caregiver with free room and board as my compensation. I've spent the last six
years online from right here in the living room (Dad is over there in his recliner), and my learning
curve has been steep! I feel like I've been to university a couple of times!
From all the FREE information out there on the net, I've taught myself web design,
have published my novel by POD (in the marketing stage now), and have made a number of good
friends around the world, especially through my novel-site,
Ruthes-Secret Roses and my weekly blog/ezine,
RoseBouquet. My novel and that
site often refer to my friends as roses in my garden of friendship. All the while I've tried out a
number of free income programs, and discarded a lot of them as I've become more discerning.
At my genealogy web site, A Godly Inheritance I'm getting
hits and people are contacting me, so I hope those GEDCOMs and family history eBooks will be as
popular in sales as the topic generally is on the net now.
It's not ready yet, and I'm not sure I have time left to take on many clients, but I have started
offering my services for web design and to compile eBooks for others, and already I have one
happy client! You will find it under
Services -- > Azaleas
once I have that ready.
I've registered my main business, Bouquet of Enterprises, with my home province, Saskatchewan, in
Canada, and also the subsiduary publishing business (for my own books only), that I call The
Lord's Morning Glory Publishing House.
I have ideas for a number more, which I'll name for flowers too, but there are steps in my
long-range strategy that have to be covered first.
I've already got very full days, but I usually stop to help someone who asks for it.
Oh-oh! I got off on a business tangent there, instead of talking about myself. Well, If you really
are keen to get to know me, I recommend you go exploring all over my
Ruthe's Secret Roses site, and order the novel. I gave
the heroine all the best parts of me! (GRIN)!
Besides that, you'll find there a Get
Acquainted form whereby we can start a dialogue over several days. You tell me a bit about
yourself, and I send you more info on myself in that area. That way we can see how much we have in
common more quickly.
P.S. I have a reputation for talking fast and enthusiastically when I get excited. Did you hear that
as you read this page? Fortunately, on the written page you can read me as slow as you like. Take
all the time you need!
Like a gemstone, I have many facets, or sides to me. You may explore them through these links:

eAction is my weekly Blog where I share my
marketing and business experiences, alternately with my Linux Learning Curve experiences. (2005
was really a big year for that!)
