   Dear Editor,

   I am writing on behalf of The Conversation Group, a San Francisco-
   based company devoted to participatory media. Currently, we are
   working with SkinnySongs founder and lyricist Heidi Roizen to
   communicate with bloggers about her new “SkinnySongs” CD. We are
   wondering of you would be interested in receiving a copy of the
   SkinnySongs CD to hear it for yourself?

   SkinnySongs is not about dieting, and is not “workout music.”
   Instead, SkinnySongs is the first radio-hit-quality music specifically written to
   empower and inspire people to reach their weight and fitness goals.
   While some people listen to it while exercising or walking, others find it
   helps to listen to SkinnySongs even when driving or cooking — to get through
   rough days and strengthen their resolve to to reach their goals.

   Penned by Roizen
   herself, the songs reflect her personal journey. Roizen writes:

   “About seven months ago I hit an all time high, I had gone from a
   size 8 to a size 14. Facing my 50th birthday, I did not want to
   enter the ‘back half’ not feeling good about myself, and at an
   unhealthy weight. Since music has always been a motivator to me, it
   occurred to me that maybe there would be great songs I could listen
   to while walking, or even in my car, that would
   motivate me to succeed, much in the way ‘I will survive’ by Gloria
   Gaynor got many of us through a breakup. I couldn’t find any, so I
   wrote SkinnySongs.”

   With 10 tracks produced by Nashville producer David Malloy
   (who has produced for Reba McEntire, Dolly Parton, Rodney Crowell, Tanya Tucker,
   and Rosanne Cash and has over forty #1 hits as a producer) and George Daly
   (CEO and founder of independent record label About Records, formerly of Columbia &
   Atlantic Records), and featuring an equally talented group of emerging musical artists,
   SkinnySongs crosses genres and styles to match the perfect mood, rhythm, melody
   and beat to the message being delivered. From driving rock and roll, thumping hip-hop,
   and adult contemporary to pure pop, SkinnySongs will help listeners find the motivation to
   reach their weight loss and fitness goals while, Roizen hopes, enjoying the music all the while.
   Roizen writes:

   “In these songs, I tell stories about women who decide to take charge of their
   own lives, to exercise, make better food choices and to become their personal best. The
   music does not speak about quick fixes — in each story months go by, and the storyteller
   acknowledges that hard work and commitment are part of the requirements to succeed.
   This is really not about one particular Weight or body type — it is just about taking care
   of — and feeling good about — yourself. I don’t mention any specific age OR weight,
   except in one song — where my protagonist goes from a size 16 to an 8. Ultimately,
   this music has helped me return to a size 8 and a very healthy body weight, and I’m
   hearing from other women every day about how much they are enjoying the music
   too and finding that it Speaks to them about the challenges they face and gives them
   a coach and kindred spirit to help them through their weaker moments.”

   I hope you’ll be interested in reviewing this CD. If you are, please
   visit [removed] in order to learn a little more about the
   musical artists and Roizen’s mission to help others reach their
   fitness goals.

   If you would like to receive a copy of SkinnySongs for review on
   your site, please contact me at the e-mail address below. Our goal
   with this project is to encourage honest and insightful commentary

   Sincerely,
   Maren

   Thank you for your interest Maren. But I want to suggest you something. There are many networks for bloggers and advertisers. And if you want reviews of your website, then why don’t you join those networks?

   Why Big Discount Dental Plans Are Better Than Dental Insurance…

   Are you in need of a decent dental plan, but you simply can’t afford to pay for an insurance policy? You’re not alone my friend because it’s estimated that only around 30% of all individuals in the United States have any type of dental coverage at a…

   Hello Veronica,

   I didn’t receive any kind of CD and also I guess I didn’t say anything to send me the CD. You even do not know my address, then how can you send me the CD?
