Wow, congratulations! Is it a local publisher or a well-known one? Will you be touring the country doing readings and signings? (Add Tucson to the list if so. We have a good independent bookstore here...)
Thanks, Farmgal and Alyse! I will definitely keep everyone posted on when *it* arrives ;).
Chile - I have kin folk in Arizona, and so your neck of the woods is definitely on the "places to visit" list ... and we all know how much I love independent bookstores ;). New Society Publishers in Canada is publishing the book. They're a fantastic little publishing company that has published some of the best books on the subjects of Peak Oil and preparedness that have come out in the past few years. I am honored that they considered my project worthy.
I'm growing roots, both figuratively and literally, in the suburbs of southern Maine with Deus Ex Machina, our great kids, a flock of suburban chickens, some whacky ducks, and a herd of rabbits.
In this eminently practical and thoughtful book, Wendy Brown takes on the challenge of exploring the options for surviving and thriving through hard times in the suburbs, and carries it off with aplomb. Highly recommended!
The Gutenberg Project has compiled a database of some 30,000 books with expired copyrights, digitized them, and entered them into the public domain. These books are available for free download from the website.
If you missed reading the classics when you were in school, this is a good opportunity to get a free copy to read.
