Yeah, I don't control the image - they get the listing from one of the main distribution houses and evidently they don't include the cover image. It originated here (with downloadable version)
http://stores.lulu.com/nostatic Basically free verse covering three years of divorce, dating, and delusion. |

Is there no way that a description can be added?

Just bought the paper version. If your writing sucks, you owe me a double double animal style.

Good work, Todd.
 I like the cover. Why O. Winston Link comes to mind after looking at it, is beyond me:  But that nonetheless puts you in some fine photographic company, IMO.  As for divorce, I try to avoid it at all "costs."

Congrats todd; what is the book about?
Dealing with Amazon.com can sometimes be frustrating. For some reason, the book description on my first book (http://www.amazon.com/Our-Orwell-Right-Left-Importance/dp/1847186025/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1237648718&sr=1-1) appeared with no apostrophes at all. Who would read a book description that contained no apostrophes and decide, "hmm I really want to read what this guy has to say"? I have tried contacting Amazon as well as my publisher, but to no avail. My 2nd book's page seems somewhat perfect, though Shameless plug: http://www.amazon.com/Old-Ghosts-New-England-Travelers/dp/0881508209/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1237648821&sr=1-2.Congrats again, todd. It looks like there are a growing number of published authors on Pelican these days.

You guys should start a thread on "how to" write/publish a book? Very impressive to me! |

^ Thanks! The first book is basically literary and cultural criticism - pretty academic stuff. The 2nd one is a travel guide to haunted places in New England... I'm also trying to get some fiction published, so I'm sorta all over the place right now.
I want to hear more about todd's book, though, so I know what to expect when it arrives...
