Audiobook Version:
An Audiobook version is planned for the future. Audiobooks are a lot more work and more costly to produce when compared to printed or eBooks. They are usually only worth producing if the paper and eBook versions sell well. When it's ready, I'll add a blog entry on this web site and issue a press release with details.

FAQ
Q: My bookstore says they can't find the book.
A: The book is being published by Ingram Spark as a print on demand title. Most bookstores order their books through Ingram, regardless of publisher. If a title search turns up nothing, try searching by author name, Glenn C. Koenig. If they still cannot find the book, please Contact Us and we will see if we can help you. Be sure to include the name of the bookstore, the city and state in which it's located, and when you inquired.
Q: Why emphasize local bookstores?
A: We believe local bookstores are a valuable asset to the communities in which they are located. Many are able to host readings, book signings, and personalized help in finding what you need. If there is no bookstore near you, or "a man wearing a dress" is not in stock, you can order it and have a copy in your hands within a few days of the on-sale date, or a few days after you order it, after that. Often you can have the book at a similar price and within a similar time frame to online ordering.
Q: Will you be reading the book for the audiobook version or will you have some other narrator read it?
A: I plan to read it myself. I wouldn't have it any other way. It will take some time, as there are over 90,000 words! Also, it takes practice to read it well, there are costs for studio time, and so on. Typically audiobooks are produced if sales of the original book go well.
Q: Is the title of the book in lower case on purpose?
A: Yes.
