How and Where To Buy

“50 Is The New Nothing” is now available in virtually all forms short of audio book and smoke signals, which believe me we’re working on. So your choices are wide; it depends upon what you’re looking for.

First things first: You’re a nice person. You want to make sure a portion of the sales price goes to the author, who currently has interesting medical bills to pay along with a mortgage, grocery bill, and Netflix subscription.

So, money. Meh. Writers don’t make money from books, not really. Not most of them. Don’t worry about it. We like to be read. Selling 1000 books might pay for one anesthesiologist (and they were all nice people; I’ve never met an anesthesiologist I didn’t like, long story, another time).

But if you still want to make your purchase count in terms of royalty payments, then by all means use the CreateSpace link below. Enough said. But make it easy on yourself.

I’m not going to sweat over 2 bucks for anyone, but if for some reason you’re leery about, say, shopping online but still would like an e-reader version, drop me a line at Chuck@chucksigars.com. Just tell me who you are, tell me what reader you use (or if you just want, say, a PDF), and give me a reasonable email address (so I know you’re not a bot), and I’ll be glad to email you a file in a format you can read. You might be tempted to mail me a check for 2 bucks but resist that temptation.

If you’d really like a paperback version but don’t have the cash at the moment, also send me an email. I can’t guarantee anything, but I’d really like you to have one if you want it and at some point I’ll try to get you one.

There you go. Thanks for reading. And please read “How To Be Kind To Writers.” Let’s start writing those reviews, people. It can make a big difference.
