There is an agent (no official contract as yet) who is sending them out. He picked it up s a result of his friendship with the owner of PocketPCPress who gave a GREAT review of the book early on and who is publishing the Microsoft Reader version of the book. He's with a firm, Waterside Productions, in San Diego and has had some success ith non-fiction in the past ... but fiction is new to him. After a couple of months of efforts with the manuscript myself, I was grateful to have any agent at all. He's sent them to a number of main publication houses. Thus far no one has bit.

I told him that I will keep promoting it myself anyway I can, despite not having funds, etc. for major advertising. It has taken all I can do to get it written, printed up (print on demand) and into circulation the way I have it (Using Lightning Source who is owned by Ingram). I am committed to writing all five books (the second of which will come out late this month).

I figure if I keep it up ... momentum will build (like with this review) and ultimately someone will take note and pick it up.

It is getting great revies by everyone who reads it thus far. Here's the link to the reviews on Amazon, and here the link to the reviews I have gathered (will be posting this one soon).
