Last time (a couple of weeks ago) was to ‘Dockside Treasures‘ — the ONLY shop (other than the ‘IGA’ supermarket) I frequent in Lubec.
This order, that I received today, was from my two favorite Inns (& I take TURNS in staying in them) — ‘The Inn on the Wharf‘ & the ‘Eastland Motel‘. I have, of course, stayed MULTIPLE times at both — & freely recommend them both to any that ask.
That is a TOTAL of 100 (new) books that will be for sale in Lubec — by mid-June. [Though the last order was for 48, I actually delivered 50. So 50+50=100. SMILE.]
This is GREAT. I actually find it humbling. As I tell a few, I should be used to, by now, of my books selling. My very first book, in 1983, ‘SNA — Theory and Practice‘, sold in the tens of thousands. SMILE. That book, written when I was 30, was what enabled to me live this life. SMILE.
I am grateful to those that buy my books. I really don’t make any money from my recent books. Note that these books, all in the 150 page range (printed), are priced around $9. Check other books. They are in the $20 range. SMILE. But, YES, it is EGO. Nice to know that my writing is still appreciated.
