About the Offer

"L

apsing Into a Comma" is available at bookstores for $14.95 or less. B. Dalton and Waldenbooks are iffy, but Borders and Barnes & Noble seem to be well stocked.

If you represent a school and are interested in a discounted bulk purchase, you can contact Jenifer Bemus Kallas of Contemporary Books at (847) 745-3671.

Better yet, if you like on-line ordering as much as I do, I offer the following options:

ORDER A SIGNED COPY FROM THE AUTHOR The price is $18 flat, including Priority Mail shipping (two to three business days) to any U.S. address. I use the safe and secure PayPal service to process credit-card and bank-transfer orders. Orders received by 2 p.m. Eastern time are usually on their way the same day. PayPal membership is free. The following is strictly optional, but if you add $100 to your PayPal account (it earns interest and will be there if you need to send money to someone else), you and I will each get a $5 bonus.

ORDER FROM AMAZON.COM Amazon's discounts change often, but at last inspection the Internet bookseller was offering a 20 percent discount. The price is $11.96 plus shipping; you're looking at a total price of about $16.50 for standard ground shipping in the continental United States, or about $21 for second-day air. Amazon's supplies may be limited; if you get an "on order" message, consider ordering from the author (see above).
