Frame that dollar to hang on my wall!

I just got the word from Ingram's Lightning Source department that they deposited $78.88 into my account from sale of my book through bookstores and online sales, back in September. That's the first month my book went on sale! They are the distributor who sends copies to bookstores as they order them.

So, time to celebrate!! This my first income from direct sales through channels (as opposed to from the "trunk of my car" so to speak). Yay!  I feel like a "real author" now, more than ever.

Now, you might be wondering what took so long! I can imagine. But when I signed up to have them publish my book as a "print on demand" title, I agreed to their standard 90 day delay for reimbursements. So on Feb 1st, I'll receive a similar deposit for books sold in October, and on March 1st, another one for books sold in November, and so on.  (Hey, I gotta pay the rent like anyone else and every little bit helps!)

So, please help spread the word!  If you can't make it to any of my events (where you can buy a book in person), then please visit your local bookstore and order one. And if you buy online, please rate and review it (however many stars you want to give it, I trust you).

    I'm a social activist who still needs to pay the mortgage, eat, and do the laundry.  But, more than that, I'm a love activist.  I want to make life better without having to say there's anything wrong with it now.
