How To Live Forever

Published by Chuck Storla on July 15, 2019

I stumbled across this collection of books last week. At that time, it was selling for $1.99. In the Amazon.com description, you can find this sample list of included books: The Bucket List Collection: Masterpieces You Should Read Before You Die: Leaves of Grass, Siddhartha, Dubliners, Les Misérables, Don Quixote, Art of War, Middlemarch, Swann’s Way… That is very much a sample as by my count there are 103 books included in this single Kindle file.

The reception it received exceeded my wildest dreams as it was picked up by readers in the thousandths.  That left me with a dilemma. How could I follow up on this success?

Pre-Black-Friday Sale

In the event of a zombie or any other apocalypse, the paperback version is as edible as the fruitcake you sent your relatives last year. You can gift the Kindle ebook as well but it has no nutritional value.
