Reviews Matter

It's pretty simple: book reviews matter.

So if you've read either one of my books....

My novel There are Reasons Noah Packed No Clothes

or my nonfiction book Escaping from Reality Without Really Trying: 40 Years of High Seas Travels and Lowbrow Tales

...and have a notion of writing a review, go ahead and do it.

Five sentences; 10 sentences. It doesn't matter much. Just put your thoughts down. Doesn't need to be perfect.

All it needs to show is:

1) you read the book and

2) it moved you enough to write and post a review to Amazon.com, Goodreads.com, BarnesAndNoble.com. Wherever.

Tell a friend.

Tell a book club.

Tell a coworker.

Thanks for spreading the word.

P.S. Work is ongoing for 3 new books: a poetry collection; a novel (Dusk and Ember); and a nonfiction book, Never Stop Dancing, a memoir (by interview) of a friend who lost his wife in a pedestrian traffic accident in Washington, D.C. in April 2010, and the aftermath and recovery with his two young sons (visit his blog at http://www.hole-in-the-sun.com/).
