Just bought it. I enjoy books written by people with the background. Like medical mysteries by doctors, etc.

I am trying to figure out how you had time on your schedule to write a book! Since it's on Amazon, I hope it's available on Audible.

An audiobook is in the works. That’s gonna take at least 10 days.

To clarify, my right arm can’t hold anything for very long after breaking my neck. So hardbacks are easier.

I have been enjoying your content on the several platforms that I see it. Your cross-functional approach is much appreciated and enjoyed. Keep up the good work. I probably enjoy your YouTube content most, but am hoping you make a success out of your SubStack as well.

Thanks for letting us know Ryan. Best of luck with it.

If you pay for a Substack, I would think you’d want to know about what he has to offer. If your time is that valuable, you can’t read it couple sentences about a book he setting out and you probably shouldn’t be sending him money for a Substack in the first place, just

I question: should I be paying a monthly subscription so you can advertise to me? Seems like you are collecting at both ends.

Think of it this way, if you like my non fiction, you’re probably going to like my fiction. And this is my way of letting out know it dropped today.

Interesting question. IMHO, good content deserves good support.

Craig, I'd be nervous if someone writes something and doesn't want to tell the whole world to go read it. My understanding from a friend in the industry is that 95+% of books published in the USA sell less than a 1,000 copies per year. It is a difficult market place to get attention in, and I think authors these days don't have the luxury with publishing firms to take a decade to find and build an audience. I told everyone who would listen to sign up and subscribe to this substack/podcast because I wanted to make sure that it was a financially viable and permanent feature. I'm going to read the book, and if it is good I'll tell others about it, and I'd encourage others to do the same. Certainly visit your independent bookseller first, but also leave reviews on Amazon and Goodreads, and make sure that the content you like has a way to remain profitable. Peace be with you, Gordon.
