Please make an effort – link your books to Powell’s (not amazon). Independent is better, don’t you think?

Much appreciated.

To my fellow gs, and anyone else of whatever initials: you can also get the book from the publisher: Pressed Wafer, 9 Columbus Square, Boston MA 02116, Bevcobett@aol.com. $15 (such a deal!)

Oh no. I find it worthwhile to mention yet again that amazon is sold out. Bummer.

I spotted the sales rank independently, as the book popped up as a recommended buy when I was trying to buy something else. Which suggests that a (positive, in this case) ‘rich get richer’ phenomenon may kick in …

Already it’s out of stock on Amazon. Such is fame. (Shop your local independent bookstore.)
