Mr. Rawles:
I just picked up your latest novel “Survivors” [1] today at my local Barnes and Noble store. Surprisingly, they had it prominently displayed on their “New Arrivals” display table! Some time back, I had them order “Patriots” [2] for me. You would have thought I asked them to give me their only kidney. How times have changed.
I dearly love the disgusted, displeased look on the tattooed, goth, über-liberal checkout girl’s face when I make my purchases. It’s why I still buy my reading material in the store.
Love your work and the blog. Thanks for your efforts! – Bill in Florida
JWR Replies: I should remind all SurvivalBlog readers to please give retailers other than just Amazon some business. Although I used Amazon ranking as a benchmark for tracking the recent Book Bomb Day, there are other vendors that deserve some biz, including Barnes and Noble [3]. And for those of us that like to support local “Mom and Pop” bookstores, check out IndieBound.org [4].
