Thank you BlueLotus, I'll see what they say.
I left a copy of my book at a local popular coffee house today. Hopefully people will be able just to see enough to make them interested in getting it for themselves.

Richard, I think this place would love to have your book! Please contact them, they are really great people, I used to shop there and got to know all of them on a first name basis angelheartgifts.com/I didn't contact them, but I did look around at what they offer. I do not think they would be interested in this. They seem like a purely metaphysical and secularly influenced site. My book supports belief in God, and the bible, while rejecting the necessity of organized religions. It compares how secular theologies operate in much the same ways as religions, just with a different purpose. It examines rhetorical positions of both those who oppose religion, and those who support it, history and teachings specific to a number of religions, cults, etc. Kind of a self-help reference book with a fair measure of psychology and philosophy. It is a book without a promotion avenue. The metaphysical stores (new age) are not really interested, and the christian based stores are definitely not interested because it steals their thunder so to speak, and does not promote their business. Every individual, book store owners, neighbors, co-workers, friends, who have examined it have expressed much of the same sentiment contained in the book, and replied of learning things they never knew before but just accepted the general consensus. Whether it sells or not, to any significant degree, is relative to me. I have several other projects in development and hope to have one or two out next year. More marketable projects. Appreciate the thought and suggestion. |

Richard, Don't judge a book by it's cover, they have a wide rage of material in their store from agnostic books to tao, hind, Islam and anything in-between.
Your call but I would try to get more exposure If I were you. The subject of your book is infinitely interesting.

Then you can say "told you so."  |

They never did return my inquiry BL.
I am waiting on a local book store to finish evaluating my book to see if they will carry it. It is showing promise.
It is also now available on Kindle for $.99.
Most people don't hesitate to spend a dollar for an e-book, and I'd just assume people read it rather than try to make every last penny I can on it.
