2. Hi. Selling books is hard.
Even when you are a well know author with a publisher who licks your boots, it's hard. Have you tried to get on local blah, blah programs on tv to get interview, push your book, etc. etc.?

4. Very cool, bigtree!
I know it's discouraging, but remember, YOU WROTE A BOOK. Most of us cannot say the same thing.

If I find some extra funds, I will gladly pick up your book.

:thumbsup:
