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.


i vaguely remember orwell writing an entire book without apostrophes, or maybe it was semi-colons. he thought they were an anachronism.
