Inkshares is shipping the books this week, so you should have your copies of "Nowhere Else I Want to Be: A Memoir" by December 23.

I’m hoping that, after you read the book, you’ll be willing to help me with promotion. I have chronic migraine disease and so cannot do the usual author book tour. I would greatly appreciate it if you would help get the word out.
