All the Wapshott titles are there, too. Yay!

Full disclosure: I have less of a problem with Amazon these days than I used to. Wapshott runs books through Createspace, which is Amazon’s POD arm. I do this because it’s the absolute best way to do this I’ve found so far. For example, Wapshott books are on IndieBound.com w/out so much as lifting a finger beyond what I normally do at Createspace. For what I’m doing at Wapshott at this time, they’re good; I hope they stay that way. And if they don’t there are already almost as good alternatives, Baker & Taylor, for one example. Lulu just got too expensive a while ago and their cover quality isn’t as good as Createspace.

New Hackenbush review and a mention in the Whittier Daily News

Dr. Hackenbush Gets a Job review at I Spy With My Altered Eye on May 24, 2010

“Self-discovery is part of the journey in ‘Dr. Hackenbush Gets a Job: Sexual Harassment and Class Warfare’ (Wapshott Press, $12) by Ginger Mayerson. Set in the ’80s, the novel finds Mabel Hackenbush between gigs, her baritone ukulele in ruins and her car in the shop. She takes on a day job, working to get back to her real calling as a jazz vocalist. South Pasadena resident Mayerson wrote music before turning to books.”

Wow, when did I move to South Pas? Not that I’d mind if I didn’t live in Lincoln Heights.

5 Star Review at Amazon and Barnes and Noble for “Dr. Hackenbush Gets a Job”

“I was enthralled by this book. After hitting the bottom of the first page I never looked back. I was pulled into the world of Dr. Hackenbush and her endeavors to deal with life on her own terms. Forced by the untimely death of the transmission of her Karmann-Ghia and the destruction of her baritone ukulele to return to the world of industry, she takes a job with a temporary agency. Complications ensue.”
