Sales of “One Fiddle Too Many” are going well. I will be selling and signing books at a number of locations in the coming weeks, and have placed an order that should be delivered soon so that I will have plenty to go around.

I want to thank everybody who has already bought a copy. Tell your friends how much you enjoyed reading it and maybe they will buy one too. I think the book has great appeal to people who like reading about Jacksonville when it was in its heyday of hosting northern visitors at the turn of the twentieth century. While times have changed, we still serve as a winter destination for folks from northern cities wanting a more hospitable climate for their winter months. The main difference now is that there are so many other choices.

If you have read “One Fiddle Too Many” and enjoyed it, one way of expressing yourself and providing feedback is to go Amazon.com and search for the title. You will find both the paperback version and the Kindle version. Click on one or the other and click the “Like” button. Then, scroll down the page toward the bottom and you will see a section called “Tag this product.” There is a little box there where you can type in a word that you think you think helps describe the book. It could be “mystery,” “historic fiction,” “violins,” or whatever word comes to mind. These two actions will help the book show up in searches whenever those key words are entered. The “like” button shows amazon.com that the book has a certain popularity and this will also help it show up in searches. If anyone is really energetic, amazon provides a platform for readers to write and submit their own reviews as one reader has already done.

Thanks to all and I really hope to see you at any of these upcoming book signing events.
