Hi 🙂
I created an online tool to help children with worry, anxiety and stress. The paper and ink version won awards in the last few years, but the online version is very different, and offers a lot more tools than previously available.
My situation is that it won’t be ready until mid-May or even June to review. Also, it’s not a book anymore, it’s an educational digital tool. Is there a category for me to consider? I can immediately provide you with screen shots of the program and the instruction slides if this helps. I can also provide you with my patent application for 2013.
Thanks so much. I appreciate your help 🙂
