Michael Bennett sent an update for Young Donald

Like a hospital patient pumped full of dexamethasone, I am experiencing irrational euphoria today that Young Donald is finally out! The e-book went out today and paperbacks go out soon.

If you like the book, please review it on Goodreads and Amazon:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/54772271-young-donald

https://www.amazon.com/Young-Donald-Michael-Bennett/dp/1950301133

And, if for some reason you don’t like the book, please ask yourself whether you are really qualified to provide literary criticism...come on, not all of us are!

Thanks so much again for the wonderful support! And a huge, special thanks to the Grand Patrons listed in the back of the book, and some others, like the brilliant creative director Jamie Wright and my literary agent (whose commission is paid entirely in beer) Henry Coyle.

Michael

    Michael Bennett liked an update for Going, Going, Gone!
    Oh the wheels of publishing grind along slowly! But at Inkshares they do continue to grind.

    My time-travel-baseball novel "Going, Going, Gone!" is now in the department of copy editing, with a great copy editor who is a baseball fan. How long will this take? If I had to bet, I’d say six weeks. Then it’s on to the other stations of book production.

    2020 has not turned out the way anyone predicted. So I appreciate that the book process is moving along. I appreciate good health, good air (when the wind blows out the bad), and a great family. I appreciate being able to watch the game on TV, listen on the radio, watch kids practicing on our local field, and I appreciate playing catch with my son.

    One moment from the writing process: I was listening to a game through the MLB app, writing a scene about a game in 1906, when my son walked into the room, grabbed a bat, and began loudly crushing his bungee-cord batting machine. Baseball in my brain, in my ears, and before my eyes.

    I’ve spent seven years working on "Going, Going, Gone!" What’s another few months?

    Sincerely,

    Steve

      Michael Bennett liked an update for Young Donald

      Young Donald is coming out on October 6! 

       If you like the book when you get it, you can:

       (1) put a glowingly positive review on Amazon;

      https://www.amazon.com/Young-Donald-Michael-Bennett/dp/1950301133

       (2) recommend it to friends (especially friends in large Zoom book clubs);

       (3) talk favorably about the book in an inappropriately loud voice if you find yourself near my target audience (e.g., anyone wearing an Oberlin sweatshirt, carrying a PBS tote-bag or wearing a mask in a red state).

       And, if you don’t like the book, remember what your mother told you do when you have nothing nice to say about something.

       If you ordered a physical book and have moved since then, please change your address on Inkshares!
