News About the Book’s Amazon Page
I wanted to share some news from the Amazon page for my book, “American Turning Point: Repairing and Restoring Our Constitutional Republic”.
First, Amazon has reduced the price slightly from the original list price at launch of $26.95 to $25.33. I’ve been told this reflects consistent sales for a new author, which Amazon looks for after listing a book for a first time author who is not exactly a household name in the category in which they are writing. Guess that’s me all right!
Second, I have had 3 new Customer ratings in the last 4 weeks, all at the 5 star level. I now have received 6 Customer ratings, and all have been 5 star ratings. Among the 3 new ratings are 2 new reviews, which are listed below:
Rating — 5.0 out of 5 stars: Posted by Verified Purchaser Addressing Our Government's Dysfunction . . . Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2022
“Mr. Viney's work represents a clear and thorough presentation of our government's dysfunction. Amid the ample commentary today which immerses us too often in an us-vs-them approach to any issue at hand, Viney's work identifies the underlying reality of elected officials whose loyalties are directed at self, party and donors at the expense of the interests and needs of the American people. His pragmatic tone and non-partisan focus in presenting a set of "citizen rules" which are offered and reaffirmed throughout the text points to a way ahead offering healing and hope. For anyone concerned about repairing and restoring our constitutional republic, Viney's work is indeed a worthwhile place to start. READ IT. . . PROMOTE IT. . . ACT ON IT. . .”
Rating — 5.0 out of 5 stars: Posted By Verified Purchaser Fine book by a gifted thinker and writer! . . . Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2022
“Mr. Viney has produced a work that's perfect for these turbulent times with lots of good ideas for things we can all do.”
I am so very appreciative of everyone who has purchased and read the book and left comments on a social media post, or just went to the website and read the summary of the Citizen Rules, the Bill of Public Service and Accountability, and the action plan to implement the changes. Those are all very important aspects of helping to build awareness of the solutions which could, as the book’s title says, repair and restore our Constitutional Republic, before divisiveness does further damage.
As you may know, I plan to invest royalties from book sales in supporting the action plan to implement the solution. I know that it is a multi-year marathon to ever see these changes implemented, and we’ve only just left the starting line. So, I would like to ask for additional help to reach more people in less time, in these two ways:
1. That anyone who has read the book but not yet posted a review, with our without comments, on the book’s page on the Amazon website, would take a few minutes and post a review and add some personal comments. The number of reviews received determines the level of marketing support that Amazon gives to the book, and thus the number of sales and most importantly, the number of people reached.
2. That anyone who reads a blog post on social media who receives an email about the book would (a) add a comment about the solutions and the post, and (b) share the post with your network. Those actions again will help reach more people.
Thank you in advance for your continued interest and support.
Thanks again to all,
Robert Viney
