When will it be in stores?
Before the snow melts on Oak Ridge No. 14 -- where, just this morning, I saw a herd of nine healthy deer crossing over from No. 15.
Rick is hoping they'll be in the stores by next week sometime. But the book business isn't the best-run or most predictable thing in the world, if your name isn't, say, Dan Brown.
Of course, Rick's a much, much better writer. Just not so rich.
Jason --
I am holding in my hands (well, I was, just a minute ago; had to put it down to type!) a copy of "Amen Corner," autographed by the Author.
It's got a helluva nice feel to it.
The cover's attractive (before ... someone else points it out: No, it's not Amen Corner -- but it is Augusta National -- below the tee at 6, I'm guessing); the typography's excellent; the heft is perfect, at 323 pages.
You can pick one up, today, at Once Upon a Crime in Minneapolis. Rick isn't sure who else might have it physically present, yet -- but he knows that Once Upon a Crime does, because I believe he autographed and delivered them himself.

P.S. My prediction was correct -- though there's quite a bit of bare ground around the trees in the right rough at 14, and some around the fairway bunker left. And the tee is bare.
