Anyway, since you mentioned the blurb of ''Sockeye Love'' I wanted to tell you about a successful campaign Amnesty International Switzerland is running these days: they pictured one of the most famous comedians here with the caption ''Condemned to 35 years in jail for telling jokes about the Government''. And when you click on the link to express your solidarity, you find out that this is in fact what happened to Zarganar, a comedian from Burma. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zarganar
I liked also the little details and the irony (the ''hardcore environmentalist'', this Pat character). And I'm glad they set up an award to remember Curtis!
I didn't know about the aftereffects of uranium mining (higher cancer rates than the rest of the country). BTW you'll be happy to hear that yesterday the Swiss government decided to abandon nuclear power! Last Sunday I went to the biggest antinuclear demonstration since Chernobyl: 20000 person, which is a lot for a small country.

Congratulations! Although it is a bit mean to put out the book at the beginning of my working day...
Still about marketing: the link enabling people to add the book directly to the cart is

Make life easier for buyers (old wise Chinese saying ;-)!
Be well!
