However, if there are hundreds of customers wanting more selection in religious fiction for any one–even a local author–who wants to see books on the Civil War, then there will be more space for the books there is more demand for. From a retail perspective, this *is* serving the needs of the customer base; feedback to the store that you would like to see a particular book on the shelf may get it there, but it won’t stay unless sales show that there is a real local demand for the title.
]]>If it’s good cover art, then it makes sense. Few of my books have had ugly cover art, so hopefully, it will help.

]]>A side note regarding cover art – I’m afraid I can’t find anything good to say about putting a close-up of Paul Giamatti’s face on the cover of David McCullough’s “John Adams”. I realize it’s cross-publicizing with the new HBO mini-series, but jeesh!
]]>I’ll be there as well. It’s also my book… check the cover of it…

]]>With all due respect to the big boxes, there are better ways to get good Civil War Books. Virtual Book Signing provides a live monthly book signing event with all the best authors. We are planning an event for one of Savas’ new books on cavalry during the Gettysburg campaign this coming May 17th. Check out past events on our Archive page. I am convinced that this is how people will be finding their favorite books as time goes on.

Seriously I’ve thought about jumping on the band wagon with an offering of “A Visual Tour of the Sites Related to the Alternate History of Gettysburg.” But when the book is applied to the geography, the fiction falls apart. Brigade fronts extending over 2 miles? Come on!
