A Rose by any other name...

I have a book called "Winnibozho Blues" unfortunately no one knows what a Winnibozho is and some think it is something about music. In reality it is an action adventure and a rousing one at that, though sales don't reflect that fact. I assume the title must be off-putting. Therefore I am changing the title. I hope it isn't the same as changing a ships name (bad luck!)

I am changing to "Rock Lake My Read more of this blog post »
