March 2010 Planners Available

Here are March’s planners. I meant to get them out last week, but I wanted to wait until this month’s surprise was ready. Enjoy!

Release notes:

• The reception for the Premium Planners has been phenomenal! Thank you for all the feedback and requests. Speaking of requests…
• There’s now a premium version of the Blog Post Planner and Calendar. I didn’t prep them in last month’s release because I didn’t think anyone would want them. Man, was I ever wrong! Due to near-daily requests for them, I’ve bundled them up and included them on the Premium Planners page. (If you bought the All-In-One Pack, check your email – you got them for free. Thank you for supporting R&D!)

If you’d rather not wait on me to update the free planners, you might consider buying the Premium Planners. If you don’t want to buy them, that’s cool – everything but the exclusive designs will be available for free around the beginning of the month.
