The book is in print!
 
I haven't even seen a galley proof yet, but the printer tells me that my book is now available for sale and immediate shipment!

If you can't wait for an autographed copy, go here:

There's a free excerpt you can read, too.

To keep the cost down, I elected to not make it available through Amazon (I was dismayed by what they charge as a sales commission!)

Rocky that is so cool congratulations....man that is great...

BILLY D. 12-09-2005 06:42 PM

hey rocky

great job on the book. i read the one you posted and thoroughly enjoyed it. it's a great read.

a few snippets in there opened up some old wounds, but thats ok. i didn't expect it to be about barbie and ken.

by any chance were you stationed at an khe? some of the locations you described sounded pretty familiar. phu cat for sure. i was a member of the 612th tfs, the air force branch of the screaming eagles. we had four squadrons of lead sleds there.

you brought back all the memories of the "stench" and the red dust.

again it's a great read and i highly recommend it as mandatory reading material.

thanks for your efforts. how do i get an autographed copy?

thanks bud.

Thanks, Billy.

I was (in real life) stationed at LZ English in Binh Dinh Province which was on the coast just north of Qui Nhon - then at Ban Me Thuot over on the Cambodian border, south of pleiku and west of Nha Trang.

Phu Cat was south of English and east of BMT.

This fictional tale is descriptive of LZ English in many respects - including the shower.

Two ways to get an autographed copy: wait until I get a supply and buy it directly from me OR buy a copy now and send it to me. I'll send it back signed for just the cost of postage.

rocky

thanx

That will be a ditto for me Rocky... let me know when!

Rocky Raab 12-11-2005 12:17 PM

Folks, it looks I'll get a small batch of books about Dec 21.

I'll offer autographed copies to HuntChat members for $15, shipping included.

That's actually $2 LESS than the direct from the printer price, which means I lose money on the deal. So I won't do this forever.

I'll accept PayPal, money orders or checks. Make firm orders soon.

toxic111 12-12-2005 11:18 PM

Rocky, I am ready to send ya some money.. just need to know what it will be to ship up north?

Rocky Raab 12-13-2005 03:55 PM

For toxic111 and all his fellow Canadookians...

The best postage rate I found was $7, so the book price for an autographed copy mailed to Canada is $17 (USD).

That works out to $19.68 CAD, if I'm correct.
