The finished product looks just great, Jeff. Nothing like a bound copy to convince people that you've really written a book. Say hello to our good pal Bob Locke for me.

He and I were on the phone this morning about the time you were typing this message, Chris! Had a good visit over a biscuit at McDonald's with Jeff and Jared. Got to thumb through the copy of the book he had with him before we went in to eat, and I'm itching for my copy to get here so I can crawl in bed with something to drink and read the whole thing!

Hope all is well with you, my FRiend.

It does look good! I have it with me and it is constantly amazing that it's actually there and looks so good.

I honestly believe if these printed books were in book stores, that they would sell boatloads of them. The cover art and all really turned out well.

I hope to reach a point soon where I can place an order for books to be used in a marketing campaign specifically to independently owned book stores in this fashion. Kind of one for display where orders can be placed, 1st by patrons, and then by the bookstore themselves as they see the interest.

Quite frankly, I think if I carry one into the bookstore, many of those stores will place and initial order of 6-12 based on seeing the book as is.

I will test this thesis in the Boise area next week.
