As most of you know, yesterday was the Book Bomb day for The Prepared Family Cookbook. It was an overwhelming, nerve-racking, faith-building experience. So much time and energy has been poured into that book, along with our family stories and years of hard-won experience. Thank you - from the bottom of my heart, for your generous reception to my cookbook. In the end, it did wonderfully for an "indie" book - ranking 145 for all of the books being sold on Amazon, 11th in the Cookbook, Food & Wine section and 3rd in the Cookbook, Food & Wine "Hot New Releases" section. Of course the numbers have slowed today - but, whew, what a ride!
For those of you that have enquired, yes, I will be selling some of these books from home. I haven't ordered them yet, so I won't be able to ship for a couple of weeks. They will be the same price from me as they are from Amazon ($24.99), however, I would be happy to sign them. When I am ready to ship I will let you all know.
Again, thank you all. I hope you find my book worthy of your library.
Yours,
Enola Gay
May I bother you to sign and return (postage on me) the book I ordered from Amazon?

Enola' Im happy for you and your cookbook but if you dont mind I wanted to post this I found on survivalblog this morning. I think it this information needs to get out especially for anyone who is still stocking up on ammo or uses a lot of ammo at the range.

this bill (if it went through) will levy a 50 percent tax on ammo.
I knew this would come sooner or later and I guess another run on ammo may be on the way.
Thank You for taking the time to make this cookbook happen.I to would like to send you my cookbook I bought om Amazon,if you would be so kind to sign it.I will pay postage bought ways.Thanks again
ReplyDeleteHa! I have THE cookbook in my hot little hands! It arrived on my doorstep within the last half hour. Very nicely done, Enola. I'm looking forward to sitting back with a cup of tea and doing through it more thoroughly.
ReplyDeleteI received my copy yesterday and have already read it and marked tons of recipes to try. Really a great cookbook and the real perspective and advice on off-grid living was priceless. Very well done.
ReplyDeleteDear Enola, my husband and I follow your blog and am very interested in purchasing your new book but would like to purchase straight from you and not through Amazon. Please let us know when your ready!!! Michelle
