Mets Fan Availability Issues Getting Resolved
Some people have e-mailed me about availability issues regarding my book, Mets Fan.
The good news is that Mets Fan is selling well. At one point last weekend it was the tenth best-selling baseball book overall on Amazon (ahead of Cal Ripken and David Ortiz and I actually wrote mine).
The bad news is that distributors weren’t prepared for how well it would sell. Amazon had to re-order and many people who have ordered their copies from Amazon.com have therefore not gotten their copies yet. They will get them soon however as my publisher tells me that the new shipment was ordered on 7/23. Barnes and Noble (bn.com) also took a few days before it listed the book. It is taking orders now and will have copies very soon. The book can also be ordered now from BaltimoreChop.com, the only independent baseball bookstore in the United States. And the most reliable way to get a copy now is directly from the publisher, McFarland.
Mets Fan should also be available in some brick and mortar stores in a few weeks. For a list of stores where it will be available, for all ordering information, and for any other updated information about the book and events related to it, please check out my website Mets Fan.
