180 Stores!!
I got an e-mail from the publisher yesterday that 180 stores have taken copies of the book. Being the newbie that I am, I had to ask for clarification of what "taken copies" meant -- I thought maybe it meant they'd taken free marketing copies to read and decide whether they wanted to stock. But no, it means they ordered copies to sell. Now there is a 100% buy back guarantee, so really they're only risking the time and trouble of stocking it and then maybe having to return it...but they made at least that effort.
