If you have purchased our book could you review it on Amazon- one sentence or even just a few stars is enough. Marketing tells us that 35 reviews is the MAGIC NUMBER to increase our visibility online- one of those mysterious algorithms. Please help us get there.

You do not have to purchase our book from Amazon just have an active account (you have an account if you have ever purchased one thing from Amazon). It's easy too- search for our book page, click on customer reviews, then "Write customer review." This will help make our book easier to find. amazonlink

Although we support independent book shops, Amazon provides online visibility, even without sales. Thanks! - Janice & Steve

Our book is available @ Barnes & Noble, Brewster Book Store, Brewster General Store, Cape Museum of Art, Eight Cousins Bookstore, Orleans Booksmith, Titcombs Bookstore, Yellow Umbrella Books, Where the Sidewalk Ends, and online thru Amazon, Baker & Taylor, Schiffer Publishing.
