I began my e-mailout PR campaign for Port Chicago Isn't There Anymore--But We Still Call It Home yesterday. (I've sent off the 321 fliers in the mail.) Yesterday, I got up to D in my addrss book. Today I continue, in alphabetical order. Couple days to finish, with plenty of time to rest (nap) between sessions on the keyboard. I think I may have a thousand or so addresses in the book. I've been accumulating addresses for about 15 years now, I guess. I don't expect a high order or response (single digits) so I'm Keeping It Simple. Here's what I send out: NOW AVAILABLE: Port Chicago Isn't There Anymore--But We Still Call It Home. Read the introduction on my website at www.sfwa.org/members/Rand/. From Media Man! Productions. To find out how to order, contact me at KRand27577@aol.com.

Dunno whow well this whole effort will work. I suspect the fliers will grab more response than the e-mailout effort. There will also be books at the town reunion in late July and I expect there will be a few dozen sold there. That'll probably be it. maybe 250-350 sold or so this summer than it'll fall off the radar.
But, my, what fun this book has been.
